About Charles

Meet Charles, a charming little guy ready to steal your heart. At just a few months old, this adorable Tabby (Orange / Red) kitten has already shown a knack for cuddling up in warm laps and enjoying his time wrestling and playing with his siblings. Charles, along with his mother Nala and his playful crew, arrived at the shelter after spending precious weeks in a foster home, where he thrived among other kittens, adult cats, and even dogs. While Charles loves to snuggle, he’s just as enthusiastic about exploring and having fun, especially when it comes to wand toys and a hearty serving of canned food. This playful cutie should be adopted alongside a sibling or another playful kitten, as they thrive in pairs. Kittens adopted together are happier, less likely to develop behavioral issues, and keep each other entertained throughout their energetic days. This little guy is also great with children, but always requires a gentle hand, given his size and playful spirit. If you're eager to meet Charles alongside a potential sibling, please fill out an application. After approval, you can schedule a meet and greet. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
