I don't think there are any TRUE tiger cubs that won't grow. Maybe a domesticated cat that looks like a tiger, but not TRUE tigers. There is a domestic "designer" cat (personally I do not like 'designer' cats because there are so many cats who need homes, but I'm not going to force any of that on you...just keep it in mind ;)
Anyway, here is a site about this cat called a "toyger" which is the designer cat I was talking about.

I've never heard of this. I doubt if it is true. It's highly dangerous and unethical to keep big cats as pets anyway. Tigers belong in the wild and are the biggest of all cat species. It would be unwise to keep them and expect not to grow.

Tiger cubs that can't GROW? Wait, what? That's impossible.
I'm sorry to say this sounds like complete bull, IMHO.
Stick with plain housecats, you'll be much happier.

It may have been the Toy-ger, which is a new cat breed (domestic cat), but it's not very common yet so they're pretty expensive. Real tigers grow, it'd be dumb to think they couldn't.

I recommend a domestic short-haired orange tabby. You can find one that needs a home, practically anywhere. :) As for the tiger that won't grow . . . sounds like a chia pet or something. lol

That's right! It's called a felis domesticus - the common cat! Go to a shelter and adopt yours!!!

DON't buy one! They come from the wild and they should be left alone...and anyways they would be vary expensive and possibly a scam.
