Story
Meowdy, I'm Julius, the coolest orange tabby cat you'll ever meet! I may look like any other cat, but trust me, I've got some serious charm. My large green eyes? Oh yeah, they've been compared to Puss in Boots from Shrek, and I won't argue with that!Let me tell you a bit about myself. I'm about 2.5 years old. I was adopted from Charming Pets as a tiny kitten back in 2022. Life was good until circumstances beyond my control landed me back in the adoption pool. But hey, no hard feelings here! I'm just excited to find my forever family.Now, let's talk about my personality. I'm not your average cat. Nope, I'm chatty beyond belief, always ready to strike up a conversation with anyone and anything. And don't get me started on my goofiness - it's legendary. I'm outgoing and love being around people, especially women and children. Oh, and here's a little secret: I'm a pro at vet visits. No anxiety here! Nails trimmed? Teeth brushed? No problem. I'm a well-behaved dude, if I do say so myself.Now, about my social life. I get along great with other cats, but dogs? Never met one. Can't say for sure if we'd hit it off, but I'm willing to give it a shot!Health-wise, I'm top-notch. Fully vaccinated, neutered, and not a single medical issue in sight. Right now, I'm chilling in a foster home, waiting patiently for my forever family to come scoop me up. And let me tell you, I am so ready to meet you! If you're looking for a fun-loving, affectionate feline companion, look no further. I'm your guy! Let's make some memories together. Come meet me, and let's see if we're a purr-fect match!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. If you are seeing our pets posted in your state, that's because you live near a transport stop, they are not currently at that location. Petfinder lists our pets as 'Out of Town' pets at other locations, and Adopt-a-Pet lists our location as a Transport stop. Those are currently the only options they offer to make this clear, so we put this description we've put at the bottom to explain it. You can read more about transport here: www.charmingpetrescue.org/transportWe understand transport is not an option for everyone, but we offer it at the cost we pay the transport company for those who wish to adopt from us.April 24, 2024, 8:40 pm

Story
Let's welcome Moe to Pals! He is a typical kitten and just runs, plays, sleeps and eats. He is very shy, but he is getting much better as the days go on. He did come into the shelter with his two brothers Larry and Curly. Yes you guessed it.....they were named after the Three Stooges. His two brothers were actually adopted together before they even made it to the website. When adopting a baby kitten, it is wise to make their world small - navigating an entire home to locate food, water, toys & litter box, or even a flight of stairs, can be hard for a baby. So start small, such as a bedroom, & as they get older, increase their living space. Moe's $140. Adoption Fee is quite inclusive -the cat is altered, vaccinated-to-date, microchipped, wormed, tested negative for Feline Leukemia & FIV plus current on monthly Frontline. Moe's Estimated Date of Birth is 12/26/2023 Visit Pals-Pets.com to fill out a Pre-Adoption Questionnaire or call 636-338-1818 to schedule an appointment to meet this pet or any others here at the shelter.
