to me, a tiger is the most beautiful of big cats.

I'd love to scratch their nose and paws (but would lose my hand and a few other entrails !).

But wouldn't it be worth it?

At times like this, I wish that I had a  Zoo Vet as an acquaintance, who might be able to sneak me in to pet an amazing animal like this if it ever was tranquilized for any medical or maintenance needs.  It would be so great to run my hands over the fur and feel that big heart beating..

Truly one of God's greatest creations.  (a ways down the list from Ladies, of course, who are His supreme achievement).

Yes, typing and submitting posts at FR becomes a bit problematic if you've had your arms and head ripped off my a Momma Tiger who didn't appreciate your interest in her cubs   :-)

I've heard that tigers are more like domestic cats than any of the other big cats.

Like someone once said, if you wake up one day and your dog is suddenly 500lbs, he will still be your best friend.

Your cat, on the other hand, might eat you.
