Tiger found caged in abandoned home gets second chance at wildlife sanctuary: ‘He seems to be so happy’

The estimated 350-pound tiger was transported to the facility, an affiliate of the Humane Society of the United States, on Wednesday afternoon, and is settling in well, Almrud said. There, he will have the chance to roam in enclosures of up to three acres.

Almrud, who estimates him to be about 2 years old, described the moment he first walked onto the grass at the sanctuary as remarkable.

“It was just amazing to see him walk out on grass and to see him explore and have that freedom of movement,” she said. “It was just such a reward and fulfilling to us.”

Now, he spends his days rolling around the grass in glee, Almrud said.

“He comes right up to the fence every time a staff member is present,” she said. “He seems very amenable to our presence.”

The tiger is eating well – a combination of chicken, humanely raised non-processed beef and whole prey complete with organs and bones. It appears that he was being fed chicken, which is what owners of exotic cats often feed them, but chicken alone does not provide the complete nutrition they need to thrive, Almrud said.

In addition, caregivers are tasked with keeping the tiger mentally stimulated by creating “pretend hunting” games and rotating him through different areas so he has access to new smells and environments to explore.

“He seems to happy and content,” Almrud said. “Our staff is just falling in love with him.”

His name is Loki now! In June he celebrated his 7th birthday at the sanctuary where he lives and thrives. Here’s a few pics of the boy:

i'm not in middle school anymore. no matter how bad things get i will never, ever be in middle school again. that knowledge brings me immeasurable comfort

turns out Never Looking Stupid is WAY overpriced. yeah occasionally i might get judged by randoms, but at least i'm not living with a hyper-judgemental voice-in-my-head that feeds by draining my lifeforce.

plenty of "intelligent" people do lots of dumb shit. plenty of "not so smart" people have fascinating insights. there is not a single person on this planet who cannot teach you something. so maybe there are some deep deep flaws in the way we've been taught to think about "intelligence."

realization that: everyone does stupid shit some of the time → "everyone" includes people i respect and want to emulate → i've seen people i love act like a dumbass and been able to give them grace → why am i applying an impossible standard to myself and not to people i love? oh, because i'm not treating myself with the same love, or the same kindness. and i both deserve and owe myself better.

i took a good hard look and realized "never looking stupid" is NOT in fact a trait i value in other people? it's pretty boring actually. i love people who can laugh at themselves. do i appreciate dignity, grace, intelligence etc? sure! but equally (and especially combined with) humor, compassion, gentleness, enthusiasm unbridled by self-consciousness, friendliness, being outgoing, being introverted, being excited, being calm, being thoughtful, being impulsive, being contradictory--there are all sorts of wonderful fascinating traits that make up our personalities. how lucky we are to live in a world where no person is Just One Thing all of the time.

I have type 2 Narcolepsy. Studies have shown that serious viral infections can cause people to develop Narcolepsy if they are already genetically susceptible to having it. This includes covid. That is what happened to me.

Yall, I can’t believe that I have to do this, but I am going to say this in as clearly as possible

The anon was very confused.
