My personality

My story

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

Tigger can do many things; sometimes things that are difficult to believe. But one thing he cannot do (that we know of) is type, so he has asked us to serve as his scribe and tell his story.

This boy is an incredibly affectionate and inquisitive little weirdo.He says he prefers the term "eccentric". He was born on a very kind person’s deck, where he struggled to breathe and sneezed so much that it was bloody. He was loving from the start and often preferred human affection to food (that the rest of the colony VERY MUCH preferred). This is how he came from the mean streets of a suburban deck to the life of a domestic, pampered, indoor baby: he has since been cared and loved dearly and was nursed back to a healthy and loving little baby!

Having gone through a severe cold when he was a tiny baby has left him with some mild scaring and thus sometimes he sounds like he is "congested" and you will often hear him sneezing, similarly to a lot of humans that have mild allergies. The vet said this is a very common condition and doesn’t affect his quality of life at all. He gets lysine to keep his immune system healthy and doesn't let it bother him. His adopter will just need to watch for flare-ups and get him medication when needed.

He also has an eyelid deformity, so his eye waters sometimes. But don't let that watery eye fool you. He's not a sad kitty!
He is happy and adventurous and maybe a little silly. He LOVES people and dogs. He gets along with cats, even if rambunctious kittens sometimes annoy him. He would be so ideal for someone who wants a fun and loving (and fun-loving) companion, with or without other pets. If you're his parent(s), he's good. Just show him love and be understanding of his special needs, and he'll be just fine

Tigger is less than a year old and already has been through alot of change. He adapts well in new environments and he immediately becomes best friends with everyone! Especially if you give him his favorite spring toy or some Churu treats!

We can tell you with 100 percent certainty he will entertain you endlessly and you will love him instantly. (And, no, he didn't tell us to type that.)

Tiger is fully vetted: neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed, defleaed. He tested negative for FIV and Felv.
