A Family Has Tigers As Pets

Can you imagine asking your children what pet they want and they say: a tiger? It is not common to see a family with tigers as pets, but there are. Today we will tell you the story of a Brazilian family that has nothing more and nothing less than 7!

Why a family with tigers as pets?

It was all started by Adi Borges. He was always a lover of felines, although he had no idea how to take care of them. He did not like going to circuses as a child because he thought that they did not know how to take care of these beautiful animals and that they even mistreated them.

So when he was an adult and had the opportunity to save two tigers from a circus, he did it without hesitation. This was 8 years ago.

And it is that Adi was not very lax in his reasoning, since it has been proven that circuses with animals do not give the treatment due to these. In fact, there are many countries where they are already prohibited, such as Spain for example. Adi rescued the two tigers and became the patriarch of the first family with tigers as pets.

Yes, how you hear it. Don’t think he took them to a shelter or a zoo. He took them nothing more and nothing less than his home … with his two daughters and his granddaughter!

The life of a family with tigers as pets

Despite the large dimensions of Adi’s garden, at no time did she think of leaving her two little friends outside the house. He was willing to make them part of the family.

Sometimes it has been heard of famous people who have a tiger as a pet, such as a renowned Spanish bullfighter, but a family with tigers as pets has never been seen that live with them inside the house and even use the same facilities.

The idea of ​​forming a kennel

Adi thought it would be a good idea to set up a tiger farm at home to perpetuate the species, but had to stop it when authorities told him he would need a permit for that which would cost too much money.

He didn’t want them to sell, so it was something that he couldn’t afford, so he had to stop his project.

The life of tigers in Adi’s house

Now it was a family with tigers as pets, rather, with 7 tigers as pets! The way they live is not frowned upon by everyone, including members of their family and that is, keep reading and see what kind of life these tigers have living with their human family.

These tigers live inside the house as if it were a puppy, they sleep on the carpet, walk around the house and run through the garden. Adi’s granddaughter walks on their backs and her daughters give them meat from their hands directly for the cats to eat. They even bathe in the same pool with Adi’s daughters!

If you are a father or mother or grandfather or grandmother, we imagine that you are putting your hands on your head. But it seems that this family with tigers as pets have made these animals members of the family thanks to the respect with which they have been treated, according to Adi.

They all affirm that because they have been cared for, fed and treated with affection since they were little, they respond to that love. Even Adi has the project of forming a park where they are in their habitat and receive everything they deserve.

This all seems so unreal, but it is a true story and as proof of that, we have attached a video below.

With love and respect you go further

Although in reality, if we stop to think that all (animals and humans) were put together on earth, perhaps it was to respect and love each other. The problem is that we have not done it, not even with our kind. So the reactions of animals to our presence seems to be totally justified, since from the beginning of history we have only approached them to harm them.

But this family with tigers as pets is proof that with respect and good feelings you go further than with greed and cruelty.
