When we first encountered Rajah, he had been through a rough
time. An ex-police officer in Ft. Lauderdale had just left his home
for several weeks, but had not made provisions for his tiger.
Concerned neighbors contacted the Fish and Wildlife Commission, who
confiscated the nearly starving animal. He was placed with a facility
in Davie that ultimately contacted us. We met with an extremely thin
tiger--so thin that his head was larger than the rest of his body.
With time and effort, Rajah (Raj as we now know him), has filled out a great
deal. Now an older and wiser cat, he spends most of his time being
cute for the ladies--but warding off most male visitors.

| Magic Moments:
When Raj got his first boomer ball (the hard plastic balls tigers play
with), he was extremely proud of it. He held it like a child holds a
cherished toy (pictured below)
