At home: Tiger unleashed....

Tiger hasn't quite been himself since Poppy the dog arrived. Believing himself to be king pin, he has taken every measure to try and evict the new house guest. I see him swaggering past the dog, with self assured arrogance. Having already, used Poppy as target practise, sweeping past her, turning swiftly onto her head and batting her with a sharpened claw. Poppy cowers every time, and retreating under the smallest bench in the kitchen.

Trying to coax Poppy out again is no small feat. I have invested in various doggy treats to help, she comes out briefly, only to find Tiger sitting on top of the bench under which she is hiding under.

He knows what he is doing and I order him out of the kitchen. I turn my back, believing he has left the building, only to find him taking a drink from the kitchen sink! .... I believe he is, like the Cat in the book, ' A Tiger who came to tea' .... Who saunters in, eats all the food, drinks all the water out the tap, then says something like, 'good day to you' and leaves.

Sounds familiar...x
