Tess is a special needs Tiger.  She was separated tragically from her siblings before she found safety at CARE.  The loss of her 3 year relationship left Tess devastated.  She had horrible ulcers which were very difficult to treat.  She immediately lost over 100 pounds.  She was heartbroken and extremely depressed.  After an abundance of medication, love, and special food, Tess made a slow rocky recovery.  Years later, she still struggles with weight issues.  She gets stressed very easily.  Harmony is important to this dynamic cat.  She can instantaneously switch gears from mellow and calm to energetic and playful. Tess will never trust enough to live with another cat, so two teenage tigers were placed in a new enclosure next to her over a year ago.  After a stressful transition, she now enjoys stalking her playmates, her neighbors Fire and Melita.   
 

Tess needs an adoptive parent desperately.  She requires an adoptive parent with time to give to her.  She needs to feel loved and safe.  If you could be that kind of parent for Tess please see the adoption page.  If an adoption is not in your budget but time is please sign up to volunteer.  Tess desires a friend more than anything.
