Story
Mary Dilute calico - born 3/2020 Mary probably thinks her full name is "Oh my goodness, that cat is just so beautiful" because she hears it a lot! She is not just beauty…she’s also brains; she gives high fives and rings a bell for treats. She loves alone time, staring out the window in contemplation, or simply taking a nap. Mary knows how to turn on the charm at meal time and will rub up against your legs. Mary tends to despise other cats, believing she doesn't need to share a house with other pets. Mary came to us almost a year ago with her kittens who have long been adopted. She wants to have her opportunity to live in a home now.

Story
Waldo Born: 9/19/2013 Waldo is truly a special cat that forms a connection with most people he meets. Whether he is trying to gaslight us into thinking we didn't feed him or it's his turn to sunbathe by the window, Waldo is a chatterbox who is always trying to convince us of something. The cutest thing Waldo does is roll over on his back for belly rubs while he is sunbathing. He is very spunky and playful for an adult cat, let alone a cat that is bordering on being called a senior.

Bleu Born: 1/16/2021 Bleu loves to lounge around and be a lap cat. His playful side comes out when the toys come out. He loves to chase the laser pointer around. Bleu is also an active bird watcher. He bobs and weaves as he tries to get the best vantage point to view them. In the past he has done well with children and some cats. He gives great hugs. Bleu is on a special diet to keep his urinary tract healthy.

Story
Bruno is 1 year old, litter box trained, and loves to play. Bruno is fun to watch when he gets the zoomies and will play with most toys. Bruno has no problems with children of all ages. He was given up, along with his sister May May and his brother Maui. They live with other male and female cats and get along with no issues. He also lives with 3 dogs of all sizes and doesn’t mind them. Bruno has lived inside his whole life and is just waiting for his forever home.

Maui is 1 year old, littler box trained, and is such a sweet boy. He can be shy at first, but when he warms up to you he will want all the pets. He is a very affectionate boy and full of love.

He lives with 3 dogs of different sizes and gets along as well. Maui has lived inside his whole life. Maui is such a soft sweet boy and just waiting for his forever home!IMPORTANT: Please read all below, especially if you live outside of Texas, which is where our rescue is located.Apply to adopt on our website: https://www.charmingpetrescue.org/adoptAll of our animals are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on shots.ALL of our animals are located in Boerne, TX, but transport after adoption is available to other states for a $300 fee for dogs or an additional fee varying by location for cats.

Mei Mei is about 1 year old, litter box trained and cute as a button. She’s smaller than her brothers Bruno and Maui, giving the impression she’s still a baby. She’s very playful in nature but can be very shy in the beginning. She can be skittish around small children and large dogs, but gets along with older children and medium and small dogs. Along with her brothers she also lives with other male and female cats and plays very well with them. Mei Mei has lived inside her whole life. Mei Mei is such a good girl and would fit nicely in good home. Is yours the home for her??
