Foster cat Charlie Brown was discovered south of San Antonio, some 200 miles from home, eight days after his rescue organization discovered he had been stolen from a Sugar Land Petco retailer.
The Homeless and Orphaned Pets Endeavor, or HOPE, placed Charlie Brown on the Petco on Highway 6 as a part of an everyday routine of promoting adoptable cats on the location’s cat room. This provides potential adoptive households the prospect to fulfill them on the retailer, based on HOPE.
On Dec. 26, an unidentified girl walked into the Petco round 2:30 p.m. and left about an hour later carrying a field usually used for transporting cats as soon as they’re adopted.
