Arrival Story:
Tigger's mommy and her 8 kittens were abandoned in an apartment for 2 weeks after the birth. We adopted him from a rescue organization and he weighed about 1/2 of a pound. He was the tiniest little thing. We slowly noticed that many of his stripes never really spread into stripes and stayed spots, that combined with his golden tinge and eyes, and his ability to play fetch, the way he waits at the door for you if you go in another room, we think he is part Bengal. His size is another hint as well, he is getting bigger than Simba, our two year old cat and Tig Tig is only just now a year!

Bio:
He thinks he is a child. He is always at my feet meowing and loves nothing more than for me to pick him up and hold him like a toddler. He purrs sooo loud, and gets very aggitated when I set him down. He is getting so big now, that he will stand on his back paws, and his top paws reach my waist, with this new found ability he likes to try to climb up me as if I was his own personal kitty tower, and then just wants to be held. He's such a "baby" kitty. Poor Tigger is down to 8 lives now, a few weeks ago, some lady didn't have her dog on a leash. A dog that she has admitted has killed two stray kitties here in our apt complex. The big scary dog charged our screen porch, and Tig Tig, so scared tried to high-tail it in the house, and missed the opening, instead hitting the glass door...giving himself a nasty bloody nose. He is still stuffy sometimes, and sneezes alot...but the Vet says he's doing okay. Momma on the other hand nearly had a heart attack!

Well, my momma and daddy decided that since I kept trying to mark my territory around the apartment I should get neutered. Really alls they did was take away my manlyness. I wasn't trying to be bad, just make everything smell pretty, but apparently, pretty smelling to me and to them are two different things. I know they felt bad though, because when they dropped me off at the vets I was very scared and shaking and my momma cried when she left. I cried for a bit, but it didn't take long to win over the ladies that worked there. They kept pettin' me and lovin' me. Before I knew it my momma and daddy were there to bring me home, they were so excited to see me. So that's where I've been, sleeping alot and being mad at them. I hid in the boxspring for awhile till Momma bribed me out with cheese.....darn cheese always tricks me! Meow for now...Tig Tig

 

ahhh sweet life

Today was a typical day. I started the day curled up next to my momma and when I decided I was ready to eat some cheese I purred as loud as I could with my nose up to hers. That always works. Then I laid around and slept, played a little with that ball that I just can't seem to get out of the circle-thing. Then I took another nap. Ahh, life is just grand. I got a little bored so I decided to have some fun, besides Momma was busy and not looking so I jumped on top of Pretzel's cage. Pretzel is my Momma's ball python and he is very entertaining to watch. Now I'm laying here on my Momma's desk watching her type away. Can't wait to go to bed and start the day all over again. Meow for now- Tigger
