Rajah’s Arrival – September 19, 2001

I received a call in August of 2001 to see if I could provide a permanent home to a tiger, Rajah, a 14 week old tiger who was taken to a vet clinic in N.C. to be euthanized at the age of two weeks because he was unwanted.

The breeder was breeding for white tigers so orange tigers become disposable items. He arrived at the animal hospital, hairless, with scabs and poor vision. The ladies at the clinic saved his life by taking him home instead of killing him. At least 10 families cared for him taking turns taking him home because he needed 24 hour care. We received a call asking us to provide a life time home for him and he was picked up in September of 2001.
