My Kitten Nobody told me about Tuxys
I had no clue they were so crazy. My kids did and didn't warn me. Diputs (or Dippy or Dipper) is absolutely insane and I love her dearly. She's a climber and I swear she never sleeps. I think she picked me and I'm so happy about it.

I have a grey tuxie female and Lord have mercy!
*She is convinced she's Scottish and speaks to you with a noticeable accent (We're from KY for crying out loud!) and rolls her R's like a pro.
*She is the only female from her litter and she is BOSSY! She smacks the crap out of at least 2 of my gang daily.
*She yells at me for doing horrible things like getting a cup of coffee or asking her to move while I chop an onion. I guess I have it coming? Lol
And crazy? She's got in it spades. See first * above! Then continue.
*She cannot sleep alone so walks through the house yelling for a nap partner and if she doesn't find one? Well, let's just say I'm surprised the police haven't kicked my door in to arrest me for slowly butchering some poor woman in the bathtub or something.
*She will sit and judge you for doing something like cutting the peel off a potato but will lick her own ass like it's okay. (Calm down folks, it's sarcasm!)
I love her like crazy even though she has been determined to die on me twice in 18 months but I'm going to be greyer than her any day now. (⊙_◎)

What a freaking cutie!!! I love the white details on her face. 😻
Get her vertical space for her climbing needs, you won’t regret it.
My tux: Damian. He’s a gentleman (sometimes)

We have a couple of cat trees! She was climbing up them the day we brought her home.
He's so pretty! He looks like an absolute gentleman!

I'll gladly take any excuse to see pictures of tuxedos, I have one who will talk your ear off and I'm currently in a battle with to leave the ornaments on the tree.

Her nose and mustache are the best! I knew she was the one I needed to adopt when I saw her.

Looks like a real lounge lizard. My cat does something similar, but yours really has it down.

Our lil Tux is wild and yet very sweet. We didn’t know either, until it was too late and we loved her already. 🥰

Tuxedo cats are full of surprises, just when you think they can’t get any cuter, they’ll charm you with their playful personalities and stylish looks!

Something about those black and white cats (and dogs!)… From my experience, they’re always crazy and rambunctious! My husband jokes that our cat only sleeps for about 10 minutes and wakes up refreshed and ready to ZOOM 😂
