About Charlotte

Charlotte is a sweet but shy cat seeking a quiet home where she can feel safe and secure. She thrives in low-traffic environments, ideally with a gentle, patient, and experienced cat lover who can help her build trust. While Charlotte enjoys her independence and often prefers to explore and play on her own, she still has her moments when she enjoys a little affection. Due to her reserved nature, it's best she goes to a home without young children; this allows her to feel more at ease. She spends most of her days resting, and she shows her vibrant side by being more active at night. As she gradually opens up, you may find that her playful side shines through more often. Please allow her the time she needs to adjust and feel comfortable in her new surroundings. Charlotte is spayed and up to date on vaccinations, making her ready for a fresh start.
