Tiger - A Full Grown Cat


Tiger is now 1 1/2 years old. He's a full sized cat but theres still a lot of kitten in him.
He wakes up in the morning at full gallop, and will leap on anything that makes the slightest movement.
He still occasionally forgets and plays too rough, but at least now he knows when he has gone too far. He immediately starts licking the area he scratched or bit, and looking at you to see if its okay now.
He is very much a people cat, wants to cuddle and stay close to someone. If there are no people around, he will curl up on a dog. Not a cat that likes to be alone.

Tiger has been harness trained - will wear it without thought, but the leash training has not gone too well. For one thing, so far he has shown next to no interest in going outside. If he's happy as a completely indoor cat, than that is what he will be.
Luna, my first and number 1 cat,
has accepted him, but only as long as he stays at the other end of the bed.
When he starts trying to work his way up to get close to her, a lot of hissing goes on, and back down he goes.
I am very lucky with my 2 cats. Thought they look very much alike, except for the eyes (Luna-large, round yellow and Tiger - slanted green), they have very different personalities. They are both lovely, loving, and a pleasure to have in my life.
