Tiger Hoover

Tiger “Tigey” Hoover was the best old man. He was family, comfort, laughter, and unconditional love wrapped into one sweet little soul. He had the gentlest heart and the funniest quirks that made him unforgettable. A little neurotic at times, especially when it came to toys, rodents, and anything squeaky, but that was part of the charm we loved so deeply. He had a signature “soldier march” walk that always made us smile, proudly trotting through life in his own special way, in his own little happy world. Every night, right on schedule, Tiger would let everyone know it was bedtime by bouncing himself up the stairs, only to immediately get the bedtime zoomies one last time before settling in. Tiger loved being close to the people he loved. When you picked him up, his little tail would wag nonstop and he’d wrap his arms around your shoulders like he was giving you a hug. He was the sweetest, snuggliest little burrito, always happiest curled up beside the people who adored him. The house feels quieter without the sound of his marching feet, his zoomies, and the comfort of his cuddles. But the love he gave so freely will stay with us forever. Tiger was deeply loved, and he always will be.
