My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Tiger is a handsome DSH orange and white tabby senior gentleman born approximately 5/25/2013.

"I found my home when I was just a baby by going under the fence. After a couple of months, I could no longer fit under the fence and had to jump over the fence. A nice man greeted me every day with food and pets, and eventually, I was invited to live inside with him. 

Then came along another kitty named Lady. We got along well and played together for a long time. Now, I am all grown up and mature, but sadly, the nice man who rescued us recently passed away and now we must start over. If Lady could come with me to a new family, it would make the transition to starting over a little bit easier.   

I am very laid back and sweet. I love canned food and treats. I enjoy being petted, sleeping in a box, and recently being brushed to keep my fur looking great. Sometimes I would sneak outside when the door was open long enough, but it didn’t take long for me to want to run back to be let in. So, for a while, I would need to be watched so that I don’t want to do that and get lost." 

Although Tiger has previously lived in a multi-cat household, we aren't sure how he would do with other cats in a new home situation. We do know he currently seems fearful of dogs.

Tiger is microchipped and currently in a foster home. His adoption fee is $105.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our focus is to place animals in loving, permanent homes where they will be cared for responsibly. Potential adopters or fosters are screened, up to and including home visits. We reserve the right to refuse placement of an animal for any reason. We thank you for understanding.



Adopters must be 21 years or older and willing to invest the time and money required to care for a pet. In addition to providing love and attention, regular medical care is required. Please ask if you would like more information about veterinary fees and costs.



Our animals come from a variety of situations. Some have been dumped at shelters or vets, and many are ill or malnourished when rescued. Although the animal has been in a protected environment, there is the possibility of unrecognized illness appearing after an adoption is finalized, especially because of the stress the animal may experience during the first few days at its new home. We advise adopters of the animal's known history and provide its veterinary records, but frequently we know only what the animal chooses to tell us. We cannot make any guarantee regarding the long-term health of any animal. Adoption fees are generally not refundable unless prior arrangements are made.



If you feel that you are ready to adopt, please e-mail adoptions@nbcrtx.org for prompt attention. A NBCR adoption counselor will contact you to arrange an interview.
