Tux's Story

Tux is an adorable little girl born on April 22, and she's looking for someone who appreciates a sweet kitty with an independent streak!<br/><br/>If you work from home, Tux may just be your perfect coworker. She loves being near her people, although she doesn't necessarily need to be in your lap. She's perfectly content sitting beside you or hanging out at your desk, carefully supervising everything you do. Someone has to make sure you're getting your work done!<br/><br/>Tux can be a timid girl at first and likes to put on a tough, independent act—as if she couldn't possibly care whether you give her attention. But don't let her fool you! Bring out a toy and her personality comes shining through. She loves to play, and watching her come out of her shell is part of what makes her so special.<br/>And underneath that independent exterior is a serious little lovebug. Once Tux feels safe and comfortable enough to settle into your lap, you'll discover her secret: this girl can PURR! Get her cozy and that little motor will run like there's no tomorrow.<br/><br/>Tux would be a wonderful companion for someone willing to give her the time and patience to feel comfortable on her own terms. If you're looking for a sweet, playful little coworker who will keep you company, supervise your day, and gradually show you her softer side, Tux might be the girl for you! <br/><br/>Interested in meeting Tux? All our cats are in foster homes as we do not have a facility where people can come and meet the cats at any time. The first step is to complete our online application at the link below. Once we have an approved application we can set up an appointment for you to meet her. Tux will need to be adopted with another kitten or to a home that has a kitty looking for a friend. <br/><br/>Please copy/paste the link below into a browser window to get started. https://www.starfishanimalrescue.com/adopt/cat-adoption-application<br/><br/>The adoption fee is $175 and includes includes neuter, microchip, age appropriate/required vaccinations and any other necessary medical treatment to assure a healthy new cat for your family. <br/><br/>Although we make the best guess on the breed of our cats, because they come from shelters, we can never be completely certain of the genetic makeup of the cat. All we can tell you for sure is that they are 100% RESCUED! <br/><br/>Thank you for wanting to adopt a Starfish Animal Rescue cat!
