Charm - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Meet Charm! Charm was surrendered by owner on 6/12/26 due to owner health but we found that he is one of the most charming senior kitties you'll find here! Charm loves pets but likes to go at his own pace and he'll let know in a gentle way. He'll also let know when he wants pets by reaching out for your finger or hand to bring it closer.

He's a lovable older gentleman who really needs a loving home. This chunky boy has had his front paws declawed but that hasn't stopped him from being able to use the litterbox. He does like a little playtime but also enjoys being a couch potato, making him a medium energy kind of man.

Charm loves treats and isn't picky at all. He is a little shy around strangers but once he warms up to you, he's a friendly boy.

6/19 Per staff: "Charm was lounging around when I came by to see him. I was able to take some good pictures and another staff member was able to give a few pets. He seemed pretty chill and welcoming towards pets. He was very floppy and cute. Making soft eye contact and just overall looking content.
