Animal Profile


Tiger

Hello, my name is Tiger. My animal id is #17360. I am a male gray tabby cat at the . The shelter thinks I am about 2 years 4 months 1 weeks old.

I came into the shelter as a owner surrender on 12/31/2017, with the surrender reason stated as animal health - will need ongoing vet care.

Reserved

Someone has already placed a deposit on me. I'm no longer available.

Tiger is at risk for medical concerns. Tiger has multiple large wounds on his hind end. While these wounds are recovering, recovery in the shelter environment with a lowered immune system can lead to illness. Tiger has been friendly in the care center and allows all handling.
