Description:
Please note there is no need to complete an adoption questionnaire on this page. We only need our Adoption Application Questionnaire completed at: https://www.catfurr.org/adoption-questionnaire/ (please copy/paste link) October 17, 2024 Watch his new video! TUX is doing well in his large holding pen at the sanctuary. This poor cat is skin & bones, but for a week now he is eating and drinking everything i put in front of him! He must have been starving. TUX has been easy to care for & although he is scared and timid, I have been able to pet & stroke him without incident. This is good and bad! I am completely full at FURR, but i know if I release TUX into the sanctuary, I won’t be able to work with him every day. He really seems like he wants love and he is a young cat around 2 -4 years old. October 9, 2024 So a cat has been seen running by my sanctuary in the evenings. I’ve been putting food & water out for it. The cat seemed pretty feral, was VERY skinny and I knew I had to help him. At first I thought he was black and could be one of my missing ferals! However, when I finally got a good look at him on my outside cameras, I could see that he did not have a tipped ear & he was actually a Tuxedo (white belly, chest & paws). I was able to humanely trap him last night and I took him to the S/N clinic today. He is, in fact, a boy (not neutered), very thin, covered in fleas, no collar and no microchip. He hissed at me several times showing his disapproval of the events of the day! But now, he has settled in his large recovery cage (large chicken coop) and is resting. Calling him “Tux” since he will be the only tuxedo in the sanctuary…..as bad as that name is! Tux tested negative for FIV & FeLV & HW and is now neutered, had all his shots, is microchipped, dewormed and treated for fleas. Welcome to FURR sanctuary TUX!
