Astro - Tuxedo Cat for Adoption in Knoxville, Tennessee

Meet Astro!

Astro has quite the story! He was born to a feral mama who brought him to our back porch to eat. We were able to trap him, fully expecting that he would be feral too—but Astro had other plans! ❤ï ̧

Although he is a little shy at first, once Astro warms up to you, he is a sweet, loving and affectionate boy who absolutely enjoys being petted and playing. He’s not a big fan of being picked up and carried around, but give him some gentle attention and he will happily soak it up.

And one of his cutest little quirks? Astro loves to gently nibble fingers!

We estimate Astro is around 3–4 months old. He has been neutered and microchipped, has excellent litter box manners, and has done very well around other cats and kittens. He has never been introduced to a dog, so we don’t know yet how he would do with canine friends.

Astro is long, sleek and absolutely gorgeous—and we think he is going to grow into one stunning cat! ‍⬛✠̈

He would do best with a family willing to give him a little patience and time to come out of his shell. In return, you’ll have the joy of watching a shy little boy blossom into a wonderful companion.

We are so happy to introduce Astro and hope his forever family is out there waiting for him. ❤ï ̧
