Tux is a big, handsome gentleman who recently spent two weeks in foster care while recovering from surgery. During that time, he showed us just how sweet and loving he can be. Tux absolutely adores being petted and will happily soak up attention from his favorite people.
He’s still working on building confidence and would do best in a calm, patient home where he can fully relax at his own pace. While he has a funny, rambunctious side that keeps things entertaining, he can be a bit much for very young children and prefers not to be picked up.
Tux enjoys having his own space throughout the day, but he’s always excited for company when you’re around. He also got along well with the resident cat in his foster home and loved spending time on the cat tree.
If you’re looking for a charming, affectionate companion who just needs a little time and understanding to shine, Tux may be the perfect match!
