The Homeless and Orphaned Pets Endeavor, or HOPE, placed Charlie Brown on the Petco on Highway 6 as a part of a daily routine of promoting adoptable cats on the location’s cat room. This provides potential adoptive households the prospect to satisfy them on the retailer, based on HOPE.

“We are actually fortunate to have an incredible group who rallied for this man,” the organization mentioned in a social media put up.
