Are all tuxedo cats this crazy? Meet Pipoca , my little popcorn!🍿

Pipoca (which means “popcorn” in Portuguese) has been with me since 2016, when my brother lost his home and had to give her up. I like to think she got her name because she’s always “popping” around—talking nonstop, a little wild, and incredibly clumsy. Seriously, I’ve never met a tuxedo cat that wasn’t at least a little bit of a chaotic genius!

She chirps, trills, and yells at me like we’re having full conversations. She zooms around the house like a possessed rocket and then crashes into the most random objects. And despite all that energy, she’s also the most loving, headbutt-giving, purring machine I’ve ever had.

Is this just a tuxedo cat thing? Do they all come with built-in comedy and attitude? Because every tuxedo I’ve met has been a little extra!

Tell me about your tuxies—I need to know if this is a universal tuxedo experience!
