My name is Tiger, and Im a four-year-old boy trying to make sense of a world that changed very suddenly. I came to the shelter after my person passed away, and even though everyone here is kind, Im still confused and overwhelmed by all the noise, new faces, and unfamiliar routines. I tend to hang back when I meet someone new, watching quietly until I feel safe enough to take a small step forward.<br/><br/>But once I warm up, my gentle, affectionate side starts to show. I used to be a loving companion, and that part of me is still very much there-it just needs a little time and patience to come out again. Ive never lived with children, so a calm home would help me feel secure, but I did share my space with another cat before and did just fine.<br/><br/>I have a playful streak too. Give me a string toy or a laser pointer, and Ill happily chase it around. Im also a bit of a goofball when it comes to cozy spots-I love curling up in boxes, and if you leave a drawer open, dont be surprised if you find me tucked inside like its my own private den.<br/><br/>If youre looking for a sweet, sensitive companion who will reward your kindness with quiet affection and quirky charm, Im ready to start that next chapter with someone who understands me.
