If you blended the exotic look of a big cat with the cuteness of a house cat, you would probably end up with a tiger cat. Don't believe us? Take a look at Chikita. She is a 5-month-old tiger cat pawing around a zoo in Mulhouse, France. She will grow to be only about seven pounds, but she isn't letting her small stature stop her from having a wild time.
