Do Tigers qualify for a “kittyping”?
Poor beautiful white tiger — there is a nice photo of her too.

Carlita and Roche during happier times. White tigers are not albino. They are a rare mutation of the Indian / Royal Bengal tiger.

And then of course there are the Detroit Tigers which are a totally different cat altogether

Indeed. Beautiful animal and a fine example of God's Creation.
Say, Slings, could you put me on the Kitty Ping List please? My kitty (a wonderful 15-yr-old orange tabby who is my best buddy) indicated he'd like to watch more kitty threads while he sits on my lap helping me FReep.
Thanks!

I got to see several white tigers at Busch Gardens in Tampa. Gorgeous!

Thanks for the beautiful picture!
Sigfried and Roy are maintaining a Habitat in Las Vegas that keeps white tigers also.
http://www.miragehabitat.com/pages/garden_whitetiger.asp
“The white tiger is white with black stripes, pink paws and ice blue eyes. All subspecies of tigers can carry the recessive genes to code for a white tiger; however, white tigers born in their native habitat rarely survive due to their lack of camouflage.
White tigers ARE NOT a subspecies, they are a genetic variation.
White tigers ARE NOT albinos. The coloration of these animals is due to leucism, which is a lack of dark pigmentation.
Almost all white tigers in zoological facilities are descended from one Bengal tiger named Mohan that was found in India in the 1950s.”

Tigers are such gorgeous animals. One of nature’s best, in my opinion. Sad to hear the old gal had to be put down.
