Story
Oscar is a loving cat we believe was dumped. He has short hair and is very friendly. He is super sweet and loving. He has FIV and we have three other cats who are not accepting him. We are afraid they will fight. He does not fight with my cats, but my cats attack him. I can't keep him even though we want to. We believe he is 3 years old. His forever home should be an experienced cat lover who doesn't have other cats. He will love you for his lifetime and give you lots of snuggles.

Story
We took in abandoned baby kitten and have been giving him great care for several weeks. He is a very sweet and playful little boy kitten (now 8 weeks old) who is ready to find his forever family. He’s too young for his vaccines, but has already had his first vet exam, including dewormer, flea treatment, and is doing great! He is curious, playful, snuggly, and full of energy. We would love to keep him, but unfortunately our adult cat was not consulted and is not ready for a new roommate. So, we are looking for someone who can give this adorable baby boy the love and attention he deserves.

Story
I adopted Phoebe in college, we adopted her through KC Pet Project. She was a stray and had kittens when she was very young, so she is smaller than normal. She was born in December of 2021. She has a condition called hyperesthesia, so she cannot be pet below her shoulders. She loves head pets through, and as long as you respect her boundaries she is very sweet. But the more you pet her back, the worse her condition gets. It doesn't require any medication, just brushing and I give her a skin and coat supplement to keep her hair great. She has been an amazing cat, very easy to train. I recently moved home, and I'll be living here for a while and some family members are allergic, and I am very busy so I am never around. She is also confined to a floor of our home so she does not have much room. I just want her to have a better home and a better life. I will give you all of the supplies i have including a litter box, a cat tower, cat bowls, toy, and a few scratching posts.

Story
I first got Boppo in 2022 and then Little in 2023. They're both great cats. Boppo is a little timid at first, but once she warms up to you, she'll love you to no end. Little is the more active of the two. She's not as shy and has learned to play fetch with hair ties. She loves it. I had to move and my new roommate/homeowner doesn't like cats. So, they are confined to my room and unable to roam free of my small room. I don't like that for them but I have no choice. I want them to have a new home where they can freely move about. Looking for a kind soul or family.

Story
**Meet Mother Goose: A Tale of Whiskers and Wonder** Once upon a time, on a warm Texas morn, A dear little cat was weary and worn. She wandered the streets, round San Antonio town, With a belly quite round and her spirits down. But lo! Kind hearts at Charming Pet came near, Gave her shelter and love, wiped away every tear. 'Twas there she gave birth to her sweet kitten crew, And raised them with grace as good mothers do. Now her tale takes a turn, a new chapter awaits— No more bustling nursery, no baby debates. At just 2 or 3, she’s full of delight, With a sunny-day nap and cuddles at night. She’s gentle, she’s kind, a heart full of cheer, And not at all picky when it’s dinnertime, dear. Playful and warm, with a charm so divine, She’ll curl at your feet and make your life shine. So if you’ve a home where a queen might repose, Mother Goose will gift you love that overflows. Her nest is now empty, her job is complete— She’s looking for you, to make her life sweet. Adopt Mother Goose, and let your story begin.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.July 14, 2025, 10:14 pm

Story
Layla is a sweet and gentle 3 year old cat. Playful, cuddly, and affectionate. Beautiful, soft to touch fur with striking green eyes. Great companion and therapeutic after long stressful day. Well trained and super nice to other pets. Pretty shy at first but once she knows you, you will experience the real friendship that can be possible between human and the pet. We all love her but unfortunately due to allergies need to find her a new loving and caring family. If you are looking for joy that the pet could bring to your life, Layla is a great friend
