My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Tofu is an affectionate, curious girl with a playful streak. While she came to her foster terrified, hissing and spitting, it only took one Churu to get her to approach a human (still skeptically, but with haste) and delight in the treat. Needless to say, it didn’t take long for her to adjust to the VIP life and become an adorable little lady.

Though still a bit shy around new people, she is still quickly won over with a Churu treat and a bit of playtime. Before long, she will be begging for pets by flopping down in front of you, showing off her belly and rolling around with purring delight when she gets attention. Her special trick during meal time, is to hop up on her back legs to put her head in your hand, then weave around your legs until dinner is served. She loves the resident cat, and loves to play with her brother Muffin, showing him the ropes when he gets scared. She also happily entertains herself on her own with the track and ball toys, running around with springs and puff balls, or standing on her hind legs like a meerkat in order to reach wand toys or treats just above her head. She is a happy-go-lucky girl who will snuggle in your bed at night, occasionally cuddle up on your lap for pets, and conk out for a nap stretched out like a string bean.

Tofu needs to be adopted into a home with another playful cat. Her brother Muffin is also up for adoption (listed separately) and they make a great duo if you’re looking to adopt a pair. Tofu would do fine with kids and other cats. She would also likely do just fine with dogs, given a proper introduction.

Tofu may have had a rough start, but she is ready for their furrrever homes and can't wait to meet their potential adopters!

Tofu is about 1.5 years old, is healthy, spayed, microchipped and has tested negative for FIV/FELV.

If you would like to schedule a meet & greet, please go to our application here: https://brooklynanimalaction.org/adoption-forms/. Make sure you navigate to Tofu, then identify Claire as the RESCUER and fill out the form!

Thank you for thinking of a rescued angel. Every dime goes to saving the next homeless angel on the street.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Interested adopters first fill out an adoption application, after which they can visit our animals in their foster homes. If they would like to adopt and their application is approved, they then complete an adoption contract. We also ask for an adoption fee to help us continue our work.
