Tiger Lilly is a refined, beautiful diluted Calico girl. She was a fierce mother to THREE litters of kittens in her young life. When I found her, she had one weened older kitten, one 6 - 8 week old kitten still nursing and was pregnant with her last litter. I live trapped them all and did not realize she was pregnant because she was so thin. By the time I realized the weight she gained was more that good eats - it was too late to spay and she had her 3 and final litter of kittens.
Tiger Lilly would not let me touch her until she had labor complications. I assumed she was feral, but now I realized she was under socialized and had not had great people experiences. Once she realized I was there to help -- and decided humans were okay, she blossomed quickly and has become a loving and playful girl. Tiger Lilly has been vetted and spayed! We estimate her to be around 2 to 3 years old. She is a healthy girl with that typical calico catitude!
During the vetting process, she tested FIV positive (which is not a big deal!) We suspect she was infected protecting her kittens at some point. The fact she only had 2 kittens from her previous litter paints a dark picture. She is the best mommy! Tiger Lilly would do best with a quiet home. She does well with older, respectful kids - but young kids may frighten her.
Tiger Lilly lived her whole life watching out for predators and caring for kittens - she needs a place that feels safe! She will approach for love and hop into your lap for some quality time. She is a very sweet girl but not overly demanding. This girl just started playing with toys in the last year of life. It always melts my heart to see her carefree, and playing! This girl needs an indoor home with patient people. Special people that understand and adore her as much as I do! Tiger Lilly was pulled out of a life of abandonment, constant danger and endless kittens. She deserves to be cherished and doted on in her happy ever after home.
Tiger Lilly would love an animal companion in her new home. She would require a slow introduction! She has been known to growl alert warnings at delivery people, and at the neighbors pig. She is great with her kittens, but after a beginning on the street can be very guarded with other animals. I will provide instructions on how to introduce.
I am requiring an adoption application. vet reference, personal references and an adoption contract. Adopters will need to do a meet and greet at my home to see her in a familiar setting before the adoption, and I will require a home visit as well! I love these babies like my own, and want a family that considers them to be part of the family, not "just a cat".
If you are interested in meeting Tiger Lilly, please reach out! I would love to speak with you. Tiger Lilly is in the Triangle area of NC.
