Tiger the Fluffy Tabby, the Cat of the Day
Name: Tiger
Age: Nine months old
Gender: Male
Kind: Fluffy Tabby
Home: New South Wales, Australia
 
   Tiger is what my Dad named him, since he looks like a tiger with his long fur. He has a long story attached to him; His mother is my cat named Kitty, she is a tortoiseshell and his father is unknown. He was born at my old house in town. He now lives out of town on my parents' farm. When he was born he had two brothers and two sisters. A couple of days after his birth we had to move him, since at the time my parents were moving out to the farm. It was hard getting them there. We didn’t have a car carrier, so we had to take them up in a box. His mother was very stressed. I was scared she would run away once we got there, but when we got there she was fine. I was so happy! The kittens had a wonderful life growing up at a farm with lots of nature around them.

     We kept him and his brother that is also Tabby but has short hair, named Kaito.

     One day when I was over my parents' place, I was in the pool table room when I could hear a loud painful cry coming from outside. It was coming from underneath my brother's car. Tiger was standing up crying for me to help him. He couldn’t move very much, only a couple of steps. He was so skinny as he hadn’t come home in two or so days. We didn’t think anything of it since he’s done that before. I picked him up and ran to my Mum showing her him. My mum was devastated. We thought he was bitten by a snake, since he was starting to catch mice. A week before this his mother had been bitten by a snake. She fought it off though. But Tiger was much younger and smaller than her. We took him to the vet soon after finding him. But the vet didn’t know what was wrong with him. It didn’t look like a snake bite to them. He was at the vet on an IV drip for four days. They said that he could still die. I knew he wouldn’t die, he’s too strong for that. A week passed and he looked way healthier than before. Now it's like it never happened.

     He’s almost one now, his birthday is in October. Oh and now he has a younger brother named Cougar. His mother got pregnant again before she and Tiger got sick.

     We have taken videos of him:
     The day they were born.

     Here is one of him playing.

     The brothers

     He’s the most affectionate cat I have ever owned. I wouldn’t change anything about him. In the video above Tiger is the playful one, Kaito isn’t as playful. I love my cat family.
