Thanks Elsa, To bad about your poor bloom among the little irises. Next year may be better. Tiger had hyperthyroidism and has trouble keeping weight on, so he is on daily meds. He had his 6 month check up and got his annual shots on Thursday, and is doing fine. He's about 12 years old. He was a stray that got dropped off here when he was about half grown, and has been a really fun cat to have.
