My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

** $165 in pledges to the rescue that pulls **

- 15 years' worth of highly refined tortitude
- Mature enough to appreciate lyrics about John Cage
- Sassier and prettier than you'll ever be

Tiger the Lion ACCT-A-157708 is a 15-year-young female who came in as an owner surrender on 2/12, after her lifelong owner passed away. Originally named "Tiger, she's taken on the title of "Tiger the Lion to reflect her gracious, regal entry into this new chapter of her life.

Examined by staff on 2/14, Tiger was noted to be experiencing some dental issues: "right maxillary molar (#108) has root exposure and gingivitis; left side (#208) is less severely affected but both need to be extracted; rest of teeth have scant calculus and no gingivitis. Besides some understandable stress, she appeared to be in fine form otherwise.

Tiger the Lion has the tortie vibe down to an art form. Don't miss the chance to invite this noble majesty into your life.
