Adopting a Tuxedo in St. John's
The Tuxedo is a coat pattern rather than a breed: the crisp black-and-white markings, dark coat with a white chest, belly, and paws, that look like a cat dressed for a formal occasion. Tuxedo cats are usually Domestic Shorthairs and turn up often in Newfoundland rescue, so the dapper look is an easy one to find at the City of St. John's Humane Services. This page gathers adoptable Tuxedo cats from the NL shelters we cover into one place, refreshed regularly.
As with any pattern, the markings tell you nothing about personality, which the shelter can describe from having lived with the cat. Search by the tuxedo look if it appeals, then choose on temperament.
What to know before you adopt
A Tuxedo is a Domestic Shorthair in a particularly smart coat, so it brings all the usual mixed-cat advantages: hardy health, hybrid vigour, a long life, and a personality the shelter already knows. Tuxedo cats have a fond folk reputation for being playful, clever, and a little mischievous, though that, like all coat-based personality lore, is charm rather than genetics.
Care is straightforward: occasional brushing, daily play, and an indoor home, which is the Newfoundland norm given cold winters, busy roads, and island coyotes. A Tuxedo with a window to watch and some vertical space is a content, low-maintenance companion. Choose the cat whose personality suits your household and enjoy the formalwear.
