About Tiger

Tiger is a sweet and affectionate male cat, born on September 5, 2025. He and his siblings, Chaz and Devlin, arrived at the shelter through animal control after their owner lost their home. It's clear that they are bonded and would thrive in a quiet home where they can stay together. They have always lived together and adjust best in familiar company. Tiger is friendly and loves the company of other cats and older children. He’s a bit bewildered by his current situation and could greatly benefit from a patient adopter willing to give him time to settle in. Although he is already altered and his vaccinations are up to date, Tiger will need a loving home where he can express his affection freely. Don't miss the chance to welcome this loving cat into your home!
