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.

Story
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 can be skittish around small children at first. He loves to play with his brother Bruno and sister May May, and they also live with other male and female cats and have no issues getting along. 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?? Apply to meet Mei Mei in her foster home today!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.

Story
Hello wonderful humans, I'm Pumpkin – your next feline friend with a heart as golden as my eyes! Picture this: a gorgeous orange tabby, just a little under a year old, with front paws that look like I'm wearing the most adorable socks. I was found in an apartment complex with not-so-friendly dogs, but let's not dwell on the past – my future is where the real adventure begins.Affectionate? Oh, you have no idea! I'm a pro at purring, and I've got a soft spot for following you around like your own personal shadow. Athletic? You bet! I like to show off my acrobatic moves, pretending I'm the star of a kitty circus.Now, let's talk about my biscuit-making skills – it's practically an art form. I'll knead away on any surface I can find, and sometimes, I even do it in the air. A feline acrobat with a love for baking, that's me!I do have a bit of a sour patch kid side – a mix of salty and sweet. When I've had enough, I might give you a playful little slap to let you know. It's all in good fun, I promise!As for my social calendar, I'm a people lover. Children, adults, you name it – I've never met a stranger I didn't like. While I might prefer the title of 'solo cat,' I can tolerate cat-friendly dogs, they seem okay.Neutered, up-to-date on all my vaccines, and microchipped – I'm the whole package! You can find me at the rescue, ready and waiting for my forever home. So, if you're on the lookout for a charming, acrobatic, and affectionate feline companion, look no further. I'm Pumpkin, and I'm ready to sprinkle a little pumpkin spice into your life!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.
