With proper introductions, Bernice can warm up to other animals, though she likes to take her time. She’s independent and loves to roam wherever her heart desires, so make sure to watch out where you walk!

What makes Bernice truly special is her Cerebellar Hypoplasia, often called wobbly cat syndrome. This lifelong condition affects her coordination, giving her a distinctive and endearing wobble. While it doesn’t cause her pain and won’t worsen over time, Bernice thrives in a predictable environment where she feels safe. She must remain an indoor cat to ensure her safety, as her condition makes outdoor life too risky.

Although declawing is not beneficial for any cat’s health, it is especially important for Bernice not to be declawed. Her claws are essential for traction and controlling her wobbliness, helping her navigate her world with confidence. If you’re ready to provide Bernice with the love, understanding, and stability she deserves, she’ll reward you with a lifetime of companionship and charm.
