Notes from SPCA of Northern Virginia

Note: Tigress and Pantera need to be adopted as a pair.

Tigress's Personality

DOB: 3/31/26

Tigress is a cute tiger striped girl. She is VERY friendly, affectionate, curious and adventurous. She LOVES people and runs to greet you when you enter her space. She is not shy one bit. Tigress doesn't have a care in the world - she settled into her foster home immediately. When she's done playing, she LOVES being petted and immediately turns on her purr motor. She is also easy to pick up and carry around although if she's in playmode, she will wiggle for you to put her down so she can chase all the imaginary things in her world.

Tigress ADORES her sister, Pantera (posted separately) - her partner in crime! They love to play together - chasing and wrestling with each other. They often sleep curled up next to each other and sometimes groom each other demonstrating their bond. Turn on a battery operated toy and she will be occupied for a long time. When she is not playing or snoozing, she loves sitting in the window and watching the world go by.

What Type of Home They Need

These sisters need a forever home where they have plenty of room to run around and explore. They also need plenty of love and affection. They will do best in a home with more than one person because they have so much energy. A family with older kids (about 8 years or older) would be great to keep them entertained!

Where They Came From

The girls came from a loving home where their family asked for help finding them a home together.
