Meet Charlie – Our Tailless, Fluffy Cuddlebug Charlie is a 4–5 year old medium-haired black beauty with no tail and a big heart — and he's ready to steal yours! He was rescued during a TNR project along with a whole crew of black cats — his three kittens (Hurricane Howie, Cyclone, and Typhoon), their mama, and even her older kitten from a previous litter. Yep, six gorgeous black cats all in one sweep — and Charlie was the proud (if slightly overwhelmed) dad! At first, Charlie was super shy — but his colony feeders insisted he had potential, and they were right. With time, love, and a safe space, he's become a total lovebug. He's currently in a foster home where he sleeps with one of the kids every night and soaks up all the attention he can get. This boy is seriously grateful to be indoors — soft beds, steady meals, and snuggles? He's all in. During his vet check, Charlie tested slightly positive for FIV, and some of his kidney levels were a little off. We're going to recheck everything before he's officially ready to head to his forever home. FIV isn't a big deal and it's unfortunately talked about in a negative light and often due to misinformation. FIV impacts the immune system so you have to make sure any concerns are address quickly - just as every owner should do for all of their cats. FIV cats have the same life expectency as cats without FIV and they can co-exist! In the meantime — we're accepting adoption applications! Charlie is sweet, gentle, and would make someone an incredibly loving companion. He deserves the coziest, happiest home after his time outside. Could it be with you?
