Tigger is a
fictional tiger character originally introduced in
A. A. Milne's book
The House at Pooh Corner. Like other
Pooh characters, Tigger is based on one of
Christopher Robin Milne's stuffed animals. Nowadays he is also widely recognized as reinterpreted by the
Disney studios, with distinctive orange and black stripes, large eyes, a long chin, a springy tail, and (the one detail originating from A. A. Milne) his love of bouncing. As he says himself, "Bouncing is what Tiggers do best."
