My story

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

Meet Tuxedo — A Gentle Gentleman with a Playful Secret!

Tuxedo may look dapper, but underneath that fancy coat is a very shy yet incredibly sweet kitty who just needs a little time to feel safe. In a calm, quiet environment, his playful side slowly shines through—especially when toys, catnip, and tasty treats are involved!

He’s searching for a quiet, indoor-only home with soft-spoken, respectful teens who understand that trust is earned at Tuxedo’s pace. Other cats are a must-have for this sensitive boy—feline friends help him feel confident and secure (a slow introduction is key). Dogs are still a mystery for him, so caution is advised there.

Tuxedo’s ideal home includes:
Plenty of comfy hiding and napping spots for when he needs downtime
Tons of toys, especially interactive ones and catnip favorites
Cat trees & scratching posts for climbing and confidence-building
Window perches for peaceful birdwatching
Treats, wet food, and catnip — the fastest way to his heart

With patience, love, and a friendly kitty companion by his side, Tuxedo will blossom into a playful, gentle soul who brings quiet joy and soft purrs into your home.
