Tigger

Tigger, also known as Masked Offender, Tiglet and Tomato Smasher, is one of the main characters from the Winnie-the-Pooh series.

Tigger is an anthropomorphic stuffed tiger belonging to Christopher Robin, whom is a boisterous, yet simple-minded character, Tigger is most known for his affinity for bouncing, which is made possible by the spring in his tail.
Tigger is arguably the most eccentric member of the Hundred Acre Wood. Overly energetic, reckless, and fairly thoughtless, Tigger is somewhat of a troublemaker and causes a fair share of mishaps for both himself and his friends. To his core, however, Tigger is extremely loving and friendly; he means well and tries his best to be of support toward his friends, even if his efforts end in some form of misfortune, such as in Christopher Robin, in which he takes Christopher Robin's papers from his briefcase and replacing them with things from the Hundred Acre Wood to remember him and his friends. He can also be considered the most social of the animals and is exceptionally eager to have his friends join in on his personal joy.
Tigger notably prides himself on being the only "tigger" in existence. This title has given him quite an ego, and he considers himself significantly handsome, debonair, and the "greatest bouncer" in the Hundred Acre Wood. Such egotism is never meant to be malicious, but it often drives Tigger to act without much consideration toward others and it often frustrates people. In Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day, for example, he bursts into Pooh's home uninvited, takes and eats his food (claiming he enjoys honey, only to rebuff after actually tasting it and realizing how sticky it is) and absentmindedly leaves Pooh in the state of fear over the mention of honey-stealing Heffalumps and Woozles.

== Trivia ==
* Tigger has his own theme song, "The Wonderful Thing About Tiggers", written by Richard M. Sherman and Robert B. Sherman.
* In Lilo & Stitch 2: Stitch Has a Glitch, Pleakley is wearing a Tigger slipper.
* Walt Disney originally intended for Tigger to be voiced by Wally Boag, though after Walt's death in 1966, the part ended up going to Paul Winchell.
** Other actors who were considered for the role of Tigger were Paul Frees, Don Messick, and Daws Butler.
* In animation and merchandise, Tigger's nose is pink and sometimes brown. In his walkaround costume, his nose is black, though the Disney Live! version (also currently seen in Disney on Ice) is pink also, and in puppetry, it's red.
* Tigger's departing comment of "T.T.F.N." or "Ta-ta for now" has become widely used as Internet shorthand for users departing from chat rooms and other live discussions.
* In the pre-1997 Disney presentations, Tigger was originally voiced by Paul Winchell, who died June 24, 2005; John Fiedler, the voice of Piglet in most of those films, died the next day.
* Tigger's "birthday" is believed to be in October 1928, the year that The House at Pooh Corner was first published. On Tigger-related merchandise, Disney often indicates Tigger's birth year as 1968, a reference to the first year that Tigger appeared in a Disney production.
* Tigger also makes an appearance in the anti-drug movie Cartoon All-Stars to the Rescue with many other 1980's animated stars.
* It is ironic that Tigger appeared in two Disney on Ice shows, Great Ice Odyssey and Snow White as well as skating in "Round My Family Tree" as he didn't like ice-skating at those times. Recently, he appears in the Disney on Ice show Mickey's Search Party, but he, along with Pooh and Peter Pan do not skate anymore.
* Tigger's current voice actor, Jim Cummings, also provides the voice of Pooh himself.
* In "A Pooh Day Afternoon", it's revealed Tigger can do an impression of a horn honk and a bottle of pop.
* Tigger is one of the few Disney characters to commit malapropisms, the others being Smarty from Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Tummi Gummi from Gummi Bears, Harry from Stanley, and Fritz from Monsters at Work.
* Paul Winchell created Tigger's voice by using his ventriloquist dummy, Knucklehead Smiff, as he stated in recent interviews he did in 2004.
* It isn't known how old Tigger is, but he is physically grown up. Interestingly, in Milne's original books, he is possibly a child.
* Usually, the Tigger is depicted as larger than Pooh, but in The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, he is almost the same size as him.
* Tigger also appeared in Mickey's Nutcracker as one of the guests.
* Tigger's family status is inconsistent throughout the franchise. The Tigger Movie confirms Tigger's biological family to be nonexistent, while in other instances, he's stated to have a family; for example, Tigger mentions his mother in "The Piglet Who Would Be King", and he has a family portrait depicting his parents in Pooh's Heffalump Movie.
