TUX's Story

Meet TUX – All Dressed Up and Ready for Love! Rescueconnectnc.com is holding an adoption event on Saturday, December 13, noon-4pm in Shallotte NC at PetSmart. TUX is a handsome 5-month-old neutered male who’s as charming as he is playful. This dapper little gentleman is up to date on his vaccinations, microchipped, and ready to start his new life with you! TUX is full of personality — a curious, playful kitten who loves to entertain. He might gently nibble for your attention (in the sweetest way), then show off his “bag of tricks” to keep you laughing and playing for hours. He was rescued with his brother from Pender County Animal Shelter on July 11, 2025. His sibling has already been adopted, leaving TUX “all dressed up with nowhere to go.” Could you be the one to give this tuxedo-clad sweetheart the forever home he’s been waiting for? Enjoys cardboard scratchers, soft beds, and sunny windows Thrives with a friendly kitten companion. Has been exposed to well-behaved dogs. Loves “cat TV,” bird-feeder livestreams, and observing from window perches. Bring TUX home, and you’ll always have a little gentleman ready to keep you company — tuxedo and all!
