About Tiger

Click apply to start the adoption process. Tiger is a round bundle of a cat! He's especially vocal, sharing his thoughts with a chorus of meows and even the occasional growl, which usually comes out when he's feeling a bit nervous. Despite all the sounds he makes, Tiger is gentle and has never shown aggression—even when he's making those funny noises while rubbing up for pets. He's used to living with other cats and has gotten along with them just fine, making him a good choice for a home with feline friends. Tiger loves attention on his terms, enjoying pets when the mood strikes and happily chasing strings and toys when it's playtime. He would thrive in a home that's low to medium energy, where he can relax and enjoy affection as he pleases. Give them the home they have been waiting for. Apply today.
