Despite facing more in her young life than most cats ever will, she comes out on the other side with a sweet, spirited personality and that characteristic tortie sass. At around 8 months old, Tofu is still practically a baby, but don't underestimate her. She’s resilient, bright, and carries herself with a quiet confidence built on survival and hope. You’ll find her gentle and affectionate—she loves being near her people and truly melts once she trusts you. Tofu is meant to be indoors only, a safety requirement because of her disabilities, and she absolutely thrives in a cozy, secure environment where she can be adored. She needs a home with people who see her for who she is, not just what she's been through.
