I’m the only live tiger mascot in the U.S. I live in the LSU campus. Geaux Tigers!

When your caretakers have to report to the hospital extra early, so you have to get up extra early, which means you have to start your nap extra early. #tigerlife

It was too rainy and dreary to get a good pic this morning so here’s one from a sunnier day.

Close. Closer. Closest. But there’s still a fence between me and my caretaker (in case you were wondering).

No LSU football this weekend so take some time to come to campus to visit.

Relaxed: freed from or lacking in precision or stringency; set or being at rest or at ease. Or, this. This is relaxed.

I was born and raised in captivity. The facility where I lived before was ordered to find homes for some of its animals or lose its license. My habitat on campus has a 14,000 sq. ft. yard, 2 pools, and a climate controlled night house. My care is provided by the LSU School of Veterinary Medicine.

Our deepest condolences to our South Eastern Conference brethren at @tamu.bsky.social on the passing of Miss Reveille IX. She served as mascot from 2015 through 2021. We know Aggies around the world feel this loss greatly, and she will be missed. #mascotssticktogether

Tiger meets Land Shark. That’s not even a real thing. I think we know how this turns out. Geaux Tigers!

Lions may be called the kings of the jungle, but Tigers are the largest in the genus Panthera. Just sayin’. Geaux Tigers! @lsufootball.bsky.social

Any specials today? Okay then, I’ll have…a frozen oxtail with a large goat’s milk. For here. Thanks!

It’s Wednesday, the longest day of the week. Brighten it up by stopping by the habitat if you’re on campus.
