Bertram
There is always a cat that leaves a lasting impression. While Bertram (aka: Mr. B) was one of those cats Chris and I had the pleasure to work with, attitude and all, he was a good cat. No matter how much he wanted to show us he did not appreciate our affections at the clinic,we knew he was the best boy. Each time we saw him on the schedule we would fight over who would take this cantankerous cat and prove to him we actually did love him. From grooming to applying his diabetic monitoring systems, he dealt with us in stride and in the end he still let us know he wanted to be in charge. His family was always supportive of the foundation and its mission. Mr. B, I hope Chris was waiting for you and helped you cross over. It was a pleasure knowing you for 14 years, being there for you, stroking your fur, and letting you know you were a good boy while you were falling asleep one last time. We loved you no matter how much you didn’t love us at the clinic. You leave a lasting legacy and many fond memories.

From Bertram’s Family:
Our beloved boy has crossed the Rainbow Bridge. For 15 years, this true gentleman ruled our hearts and household with a fluffy white paw. Bretram loved singing, chasing treats, and snoozing in the sunshine. He kept us on task, making sure meals and chin scratches were frequent and punctual. Bertram practiced kindness, patience and unconditional love. We will hold him in our hearts forever. Run free brave soul.
