Tux's Story

Tux: The Gentleman Who Steals Hearts Slowly, Then All at Once<br/> <br/>Dressed in his dapper black and white coat like he's ready for a formal affair, Tux (4 months, male) is every bit the thoughtful gentleman his name suggests. This sweet boy approaches life with careful consideration, he is an observer, a thinker, a kitten who likes to understand his world before diving in headfirst.<br/>When Tux first arrives somewhere new, he takes his time. He'll watch from a safe distance, those bright eyes taking everything in, measuring the room and the people in it. But here's what makes Tux so special: once he decides you're trustworthy (and he will), he opens up like a book. Suddenly, this reserved little observer becomes your devoted companion, seeking out pets, rumbling with purrs, and settling into your lap like he has found exactly where he belongs.<br/>Don't mistake his thoughtful nature for timidity when it comes to play. Tux absolutely loves a good romp, he just prefers to assess the situation first. He'll watch his sister Birdie leap into action, carefully considering the toy or game at hand, and then he is all in. Fully committed. Pouncing, chasing, batting with the best of them. It's like watching someone cannonball into a pool after testing the water temperature—when Tux plays, he plays.<br/>Tux and his bold sister Birdie are a bonded pair and need to be adopted together. Honestly, they are perfect complements to each other. She charges ahead while he follows thoughtfully. She's the spark; he's the steady warmth. Together, they create a beautiful balance of energy and sweetness that will fill your home with both entertainment and comfort.<br/>Looking for a gentle soul with a playful heart and purrs for days? Tux is ready to trust you with his.

The Lucky Cat Rescue's Adoption Policy
We have a multi-step adoption process. While we try to process our adoptions as quickly as possible, our cats are very important to us, so we do our best to ensure they go to homes that will be the best possible fit for them. * Adoption application: we have a 1 page application, requesting landlord pet policy verification (if renting), personal references, and a veterinarian reference (if you currently have other pets) * Meet and greet: we ask that all members of the household meet the cat in person before adoption. This makes sure the cat is a good fit for everyone. * Home delivery: we will deliver the cat to you, and will help you get the cat settled in its new home! This also serves as a low-key "home check," so please be prepared to allow us inside the home. That will also make it more comfortable for all of us as we finish up the paperwork and walk you through your new cat's vet records! * Return policy: we will take any of our cats back at any time and for any reason. As part of our adoption contract, if you are ever no longer able to keep the cat, we expect the cat to be returned to us (please do not try to re-home them yourself). Due to our home deliveries and return policies, with rare exceptions we do not adopt to homes outside of New Jersey. Thank you for understanding.
