Hmmmm. Have you had Tyger checked out for all sorts of health issues? I had a formerly feral kitten once who hated to be touched, and it turned out he had ear mites that were making him miserable and hypersensitive. Once he got those cleared up, he was much mellower. Feliway plug-in sprays seemed to help a bit when we got a new male cat who immediately wanted to chase the hell out of our grumpy female tabby, but we had to just accept that we had two cats who loathed each other and work around the hostility. It took a couple of years before they could tolerate each other and even stand to be in the same room, though. It sounds like you're on the right track and and an experienced cat person. Good luck!
