About Charles

Meet Charles, a big tomcat with a personality as large as his stature! At about three years old, he wandered onto a farm looking a bit disheveled, but it quickly became clear that beneath that tough exterior lies a friendly and charming soul. After some coaxing (and probably a few treats), he was brought in to be neutered, and he’s now ready to embark on a new chapter in a loving home. Charles isn’t a fan of kennel life; he longs for the comfort and freedom of a real house where he can enjoy all the perks: warmth, safety, good food, and caring humans. He’d thrive as a shop cat, keeping watch over your projects and chatting away while you work. Though Charles has FIV, he can lead a happy, fulfilling life with proper care. He’d do best as the only cat, but if you're open-hearted and ready to provide a stable home, you'll find a loyal companion ready to share tales and brighten your days. Come meet Charles and discover the joys of having a spirited tomcat in your life. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
