Notes from Charlotte's caretakers:

She is a very loving, friendly, active, playful cat, and loves to cuddle with you. She likes frequent playtime and especially loves little puff balls that she bats around then carries with her in her mouth. She's a bit of a 'dog-like' cat that likes to be near you and greets you at the door when you get home, and will often follow you around from room-to-room.
