“Good Grief!” is one of Charlie Brown’s favourite phrases in The Peanuts. If Charlie had a voice, he would have expressed that whenever his food bowl goes empty! Being a foodie, he tends to wipe out all of his small seeds but somehow leaves the rest of the bigger snacks/pieces behind for later? (ya, weirdo!)

Charlie is indeed not only full of charisma but also character, from the way he adorably looks up at you when you offer him treats to the way he expertly struggles out from being grabbed (I guess he trained himself to do this). Although he wants out from grabby hands, he’s perfectly content with being held by his fosterer’s palm. He also loves getting his soft fur patted whenever he walks, grooms or eats. 

Lights out and he’s out! As an expert burrower himself, Charlie cosily sleeps in his paw-crafted burrows most of the day but comes right out as soon as the lights are off! However, you would occasionally spot him curiously coming out to be a busybody while sneaking sips of water, rummaging his food bowl and/or pancaking in the sand! With his dedicated love for ceramic cooling hideouts, he tends to also pee in them so he would need you to clean his hideouts (preferably daily)! 

Fun fact: Charlie is also a perfect chonky ball of happiness! Most of the time you’d realise his ears are kept down, complementing his spherical shape. Other times, his ears would resemble a bunny’s (being almost perpendicular to his head) when he hears anything interesting! 

Quirky yet easy-going little Charlie Brown is looking for a forever home alongside a ‘Snoopy’ adopter who would always love and look after him :) !
