About Charlie

Charlie is a sweet, approximately 10-year-old male Domestic Short Hair looking for a loving home alongside his buddy Brewster. He may need a little time to adjust but once he's comfortable, you'll find yourself with one of the most affectionate cats around. Charlie is a big guy, and though he's lost some weight to stay healthy, he definitely has a substantial presence. With a charming personality, he'll vocalize his needs for attention, food, and those all-important pets. Charlie enjoys flopping down for belly rubs—yes, you can rub his belly, and it's definitely not a trap! He shows a strong bond with Brewster and often follows her lead. Pets are his passion—whether it’s a rub on the head, chin, or belly, he’s all about being loved. Known for cuddling with his female companions, Charlie is a true love bulldozer. All kitties at The Kittens Cradle are fully vetted, including FELV/FIV testing, deworming, and age-appropriate vaccinations. If you’d like to meet Charlie, please fill out an application to start the process of bringing him home. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
