Toby & Pip (now Toby & Tigger)

They’re now Toby and Tigger, with about a dozen nicknames each, and they are thriving. I adopted them for a 19th birthday gift for our daughter. We’ve had cats before, but the last one died a few years ago and it seemed the right time to bring some new life into the house.

They’ve been to the vet twice for vaccinations and have been pronounced very healthy. Tigger has a big tummy but a very petite head and paws, we think she’ll be a fairly small cat. Toby has a much bigger frame and paws, although he’s not quite as plump. He’s very much the dominant one, she will try to groom him and usually he winds up biting her head; but that passes quickly and they frequently fall asleep huddled together on the top level of their cat tree.


They’re both very mischievous and curious. They absolutely love water, and Tigger will even hop into the shower with my daughter. They like us to turn on the sink faucet so they can bat at the water, and sometimes stick their heads in it.


We thank you so much for the wonderful care you took of them. They are very much loved by all of us. Our daughter volunteers at the Homeward Clinic and plans to study to become a vet tech, so not only are they adored, they’ll be under very good care!
