Hu

Hu
--

**Hu** is a white Bengal tiger cub and a character in *The Secret Life of Pets 2*. He was captured to be a main attraction in Sergei's circus and taken to New York, but is eventually rescued and finds a home with Cat Lady. He (especially his animal sounds) is voiced by Frank Welker.

## Appearance

Hu has white fur and black stripes along his head, body, and tail. He has large blue eyes and a pink nose.

## Personality

Hu is docile, curious, and playful. Although he can speak, most of what he says cannot be understood by any of the pets since they are unable to speak "wild animal," as Daisy puts it. He is easily scared by loud noises, and is very submissive despite his large size and inherent strength.

## History

Hu was originally captured from the wild to be taken to the circus owned by Sergei. He was discovered in a cage on a plane headed for New York by Daisy, who was trading her owner's luggage with another pet in the baggage compartment. Realizing Hu was scared and in trouble, Daisy decided to find and enlist Captain Snowball's help in freeing the tiger.

## Plot

Snowball and Daisy arrive at the circus to free Hu, only to witness him being abused by Sergei during training. After failing to perform a trick, Hu is caged and threatened to be turned into a rug unless he performs well the next day. Sergei charges his pet wolves to guard him with their lives. Luckily, Daisy and Snowball free him after subduing the wolves in a fight.

Realizing they need a place to hide Hu, Snowball suggests taking him to Pops' apartment since his owner is never home. At first, Pops refuses but seeing as to how the puppies, whom he teaches at his own "Puppy School," have grown attached to Hu, he reluctantly allows him to stay for one night. However, Hu is brought back the next day to Snowball by an angry Pops and his class due to trashing his apartment. So, Snowball chooses to hide Hu inside Max and Duke's apartment instead since Max and Duke are out on vacation at Chuck's uncle's farm and promises to check up on him later.

When Max and Duke return earlier than expected, Snowball and Daisy hide Hu inside Liam's closet and then, take him out after everybody goes to sleep, but Max and Duke catch them in the act. When Sergei's wolves arrive, Snowball and Daisy try to get Hu to safety while Max distracts the wolves but to no avail. Hu finds himself surrounded by the wolves until Sergei subdues him with a tranquilizing dart and takes Daisy away as well. Once again, Hu is placed in a cage and taken back to the circus where he and Daisy are boarded on a train. Once Hu is awake, Sergei takes him inside the driver's compartment and reveals that he intends to use an electric goad to make training easier. When Sergei finds himself attacked by Max, Snowball, and Daisy, Hu joins in, although only to lick Sergei's face, until the conductor stops the train. Hu and the others plan to run back home, but Sergei stops Hu from escaping by restraining him. Sergei brandishes a gun and points it at the group, but he is stopped by Cat Lady's car before he can harm them.

After Sergei is defeated, Hu thanks Max and is taken back home to New York with the rest of the pets. At first, he is taken to live with Chloe and assists her in waking her owner up by roaring loudly in her ear, frightening her. Then, he is taken to see Cat Lady and her cats in their apartment where he finds his new home.
