This
is Tigi, a fine striper who was born at a dairy farm in New
Hampshire. Now, having lots of milk every day was great, but there
were so many cats there, that Tigi just didn't get much TLC. So, I
imagine that is why this scared, hungry, little cat kept showing up
on our back porch with a look so forlorn he just had to get adopted.
And it worked. It took a few months of feeding him every day for him
to trust us, but on a cold Thanksgiving Day, either the smell of
turkey from the oven or his new human Dad's warm arms won him over,
and he hasn't stepped a foot outside on his own since.
Being warm, fed, petted and combed were welcome surprises to this
almost "wild" cat. Of all our furry friends we have adopted
over the years, our sweet Tigi is by far the most grateful! He
literally smiles 24 hours a day. After a year or so he did stop
eating everything in sight - I guess he finally figured we really
were going to feed him every day after all! Tigi is not dynamic, he
rarely speaks (unless dinner is late) or gets into trouble, but he is
very special and he really, really loves us!
