    I named my tuxedo Marilyn after Marilyn Monroe because of the black white classiness, attitude, confidence. And the fact she loved to do black and white photos!

    I named my Tuxedo kitty; Princess because she just reminds me of Royalty. She commands attention from me 24/7 except when she is in one of her “Leave me Alone” moods which is rare. She craves cuddles & gives back incredible cuddles herself.

    Our Lucky Bear was named by our granddaughters after surviving a difficult birth. You wouldn’t know it by his “huge-ness” today. He’s practically perfect in every way, except he’s a slob with his food.

    My tuxedo is named Henry. He is very quiet and won’t flinch at anything coming his way. Very sweet, but I do feel that if he were human he’d possibly be a serial killer. So I’m glad he’s just my kitty from the streets lol.

    This cat had kittens on my cousins porch and one of them was a boy, the rest of the cats were girls. I named the boy, it was a tuxedo cat, since it reminded me of oreos, i named him Oreo. Oreo was so sweet and gentle, but his sisters were mean.

    My husband named our tuxedo cat Rukkus, & let me tell you, he has lived up to his name! He has always been very vocal & is definitely the most talkative of our 4. We inherited his aunt’s tuxedo cat when she passed away summer of 2019. He is the cutest! His legs are a little shorter than an average cat’s, we have no idea why, but if gives him a Corgi like appearance. She named him Buttons b/c it looks like he has black buttons on the white belly of his tux. I just love them both!

    I wanted to ask people with their tuxedos about how my SPIRIT plays, do any of your cats play like this?
    She plays with three unusual things, any kind of bags paper or plastic, boxes and the 3rd and the craziest plastic clear straws. Do your tuxes ever play with any of these items? Please let me know.
    Many, many Thanks!

      Hi Tamara, all of those are playthings most kitties would love, whether tuxedo or not, and I’m sure you’ll find plenty of tuxedo cats who share Spirit’s interests.

    I just got kidnapped and held hostage by my Tuxedo kitty. He walked in the house and owned me and everything else instantly. I named him Jaymz Bond, since he’s always wearing a tuxedo. He also has markings on his chin that makes it look like he’s always wearing a black tie.
    I know he’s not chipped or fixed, but I intend to do that as soon as I can get an appointment
    to get him in. They are pretty backed up right now.
    I think he’s pretty young, I’ll have to have the Dr tell me.
    Now that he has claimed everything as His; I’m now the servant and the maid.
    Let the Mayhem and torture begin.
    I LOVE him to no end.
