Hi my name is Tigger, I was rescued with my brothers and sisters from cyrville LRT I was really sick and almost didn't make it.  I got souch attention at the vet during my recovery that I'm a sweet big love muffin.  I'm very timid but once I know my human and surroundings I am super cuddly and playful..  I need a cozy quiet home with kitty lovers, Im kinda special needs in the sense that I have a little bit of anxiety with loud noises , voices or yelling screaming excited children.
