Tiger - Nick Butterworth ... Keeper, Tiger isn't a real tiger. He's a kitten. But sometimes when he plays he pretends to be a real Tiger.

And at the end of a long day of jumping and snarling and very fast running and quiet creeping and not playing with wool, Tiger really likes his bed; just like a real Tiger.
