So, what are “Tigers” like, anyway?

“The Tiger is said to be lucky vivid, lively and engaging. Another attribute of the Tiger is his incredible bravery, evidenced in his willingness to engage in battle or his undying courage. Maybe he’s so brave because he is so lucky. But the Chinese say a Tiger having a Tiger in the house is the very best protection against the evils of fire, burglary.” Source

(Small Doggers Katie, Ed, Jaime and Grace are Tigers… fitting?)
