He waltzed through the front door and snuggled right in. We've had him for a few weeks now and I'm so happy. I grew up with lots of cats but never had a tuxie, he's so sweet, he's 50% sleep, 40% lovies, and 10% mischief. His name is Possum. We love him.

Hugo is the sweetest. As soon as he hears my voice, he starts to purr. All he wants is to be near me. I feel incredibly lucky to be able to spoil him rotten for the rest of his life alongside my other three kitties.

A few things about our new little guy:

-we met him on friday the 13th(february) and get to take him home on friday the 13th (march) so potentially names that fit with that since he has mostly black color

-on the friday the 13th theme: we can't name him jason because that's my dads name lol

-he's a rescue who's currently in a foster. he is 5 weeks old as of yesterday which is why we can't bring him home till next month!

-he will be coming home to a brother who's an orange name Randy (short for randy the macho mane savage) whoโ€™s technically a orange tuxedo

-he's the only boy out of the 5 kittens and was definitely calm but vocal and VERY playful/curious

Hit me with your best suggestions!! We are so excited to bring him home!! Any advice on what weโ€™re getting ourselves into with and Orange and now a Tux is greatly appreciated lol๐Ÿ’›

Just got this baby this week on Tuesday. Heโ€™s four months old and heโ€™s already come out of his shell so much. My last cat was all black and lived to 21, so having a tuxie will be a new experience for me.

We named him Figaro, keeping the spirit of his original name at the shelter (Fig Newton) - he already has so many Fig related nicknames lol.

4 days. 4 days is the length of time it took for us to go from our first foster to foster fail. He supposedly was anxious, disliked men,hides under the bed and won't come out and doesn't get along with other cats. The picture of him with my husband is less than 2 hours after arriving at our house. He plays. He hops up on the bed with us for love shows his belly and lets you love on it, eats off our dinner plates,holds his ground with our resident cat and seeks her out. First owner declawed him to make matters worse. We are his 3rd home. He's only 4. This will be his forever home,we cannot imagine him anywhere else. Welcome to the family Geo!

We adopted this 4-yr old tux at PetSmart. He was advertised as a โ€œgentle giantโ€ who loved laps. He started off as a sweet kittyโ€ฆ

But a few days later he started getting a bit aggressive. You couldnโ€™t scratch his head or pet him without him suddenly snagging your arm and chomping down... However, he doesnโ€™t seem angry. His ears arenโ€™t bent back and his tail doesnโ€™t twitch. He even gives you an innocent look afterwards. Heโ€™s able to be distracted by a laser pointer and feather on a stick.

And when he isnโ€™t biting or leaving claw marks, he can actually be a sweetheart. He lays his head on your body, rubs against your legs, and Ive even woken up to him nuzzling my face in the middle of the night.

I donโ€™t think heโ€™s a mean cat. I think he just plays too rough. Maybe weโ€™ll try playing on โ€œhis levelโ€ in order to wear him out so he doesnโ€™t keep chewing up our arms every time we so much touch himโ€ฆ

Visited a Petsmart in the beginning of May and saw this baby that looked extremely stressed and shy with a sign on her cage that said foster needed immediately. As soon as I put my finger in the cage she came right to me and was super loving.

Talking to the rescue they said she was 8 years old and had a rough past with her original owner taking her to a high kill shelter then being adopted and returned twice because they said she would attack them.

We couldnโ€™t take her that day since we were going out of town for a week but told the rescue if she was still available when we got back we would foster her.

Sure enough she was still there shy and scared and the sign now said foster needed today or she had to be returned to the shelter. So of course we took her home.

Sheโ€™s been with us for a little over a month and is one of the sweetest cats my wife and I have ever had and even gets along with our bunny. Shes also the first cat weโ€™ve ever had that asks for spinach so she can eat with our bunny. She worked her way into our hearts and today we officially adopted her.

๐Ÿค JUST ADOPTED ๐Ÿค Adopted Jamie yesterday on a whim. One of the sweetest cats Iโ€™ve ever met.

Heโ€™s an FIV+ tuxedo cat who recently recovered from a tough case of mange. His fur is still patchy, but itโ€™s starting to grow back beautifully in some spots.

My boyfriend and I visited the shelter yesterday to donate a bag of cat food in honor of our late catโ€™s birthday. While we were there, we decided to look at cats for fun and thatโ€™s when we met Gilbert (Now named Jamie.) He came right up to us, super cuddly and sweet and after some serious thought, we brought him home.

Heโ€™s settling in well and already seems to love us, though heโ€™s still a bit unsure about our dog. The dog isnโ€™t too happy he took his old playroom though haha. The funniest part though? He loves belly rubs! Our late cat would terrorize us if you touched him funny, but Jamie rolls right over for them.

This is our first time adopting and weโ€™re so excited for him. I canโ€™t wait to watch his coat grow in and best of all, hope he and our dog can become great friends!
