Tux is a handsome 2-year-old gentleman with a classic tuxedo look and an even more charming personality to match. This sweet FIV+ boy may be a little shy when settling into a new environment, but once he feels safe, his loving and affectionate side shines through. Tux absolutely adores attention from his people and will happily soak up cuddles, pets, and brushing sessions while rewarding you with his talkative little conversations. He’s especially fond of lickable treats and good food, and he quickly learns who the snack provider is in the house!

After being rescued as a stray by wonderful people, Tux is finally discovering just how fun life indoors can be. He recently learned the joy of wand toys and laser lights, and watching him play is guaranteed to make you smile. Beneath his calm and gentle nature is a playful boy who is learning to fully trust and enjoy the comforts of being loved. Tux gets along well with other cats and would make a wonderful companion for someone willing to give him a little patience while he settles in. Once he warms up, he’ll reward you with endless affection, sweet chatter, and loyal companionship.
