TIGER LEE – A1054111
Gone 10-17-2015 Manhattan
***GONE 10/17/15***TIGER LEE certainly looks like a little tiger with his gorgeous brown stripes. This 2 year old male was giving to his owner when he was a kitten. Now the owner is giving up this sweetie because of the cost. What a sad situation for TIGER LEE who enjoyed living with his owner and 2 children, ages 5-8. Now this regal tiger cat is in a cage at the shelter on today’s euthanasia list. The owner liked how friendly he was, and if he had just kept poor TIGER LEE, his life wouldn’t be on the line today! He’s described as playful, mellow, confident, assertive. This cutie loves to play and sometimes doesn’t know his own strength, but he’s also gentle and sweet. He is afraid at the shelter (Can you blame him?) and he’d do great at an experienced cat home where he’s allowed to warm up to his surroundings on his own time. This cuddly guy is desperate for a reprieve from a lethal injection. Won’t you be TIGER LEE’s kitty angel today???

Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Tiger Lee’s previous owner states that he is shy around strangers for a few minutes. He has lived with children ages 5-8 and can be exuberant and somewhat rough when playing with both children and adults. He nips and gets very excited, but has not broken skin. He hasn’t been around other animals and has never bitten or scratched out of aggression. He struggles when being placed in a carrier and will growl when getting his nail trimmed. He doesn’t always like to be picked up and held, but will come to you for affection. He was described as friendly, playful, mellow, confident, assertive & fearful of loud noises with a low-high activity level. Reaction to assessor: Tiger Lee was calm and relaxed upon approach. Reaction when softly spoken to: Tiger Lee looks at the assessor with relaxed eyes. Reaction to cage door opening: Tiger Lee becomes alert, but remains calm. Reaction to touch: Tiger Lee slowly backs away and grumbles, but lowers his head and remains immobile when pet. He seems wary of the environment and begins to lip lick. Behavior Determination: Experience Tiger Lee tolerates attention and petting but may be fearful or stressed in the shelter. He may need time to warm up to his new home. We recommend that this cat go to a home with experienced cat parents. Because the previous owner reports Tiger Lee can get somewhat rough during play and nip, any future home with young children should conduct a thorough interaction.
