If the Humane Society of Allen County had its own retired prizefighter, he would be Mushmelon. This big, sweet, 2-year-old orange tiger has taken his licks but refuses to get bitter. Mushmelon gets his name from his massive noggin', which few people can resist petting and scratching. He was a stray who came in with injuries, probably from getting the bad end of a cat fight. All Mushmelon wants to do know is have a peaceful, happy life. He's content to be held in ridiculous positions and lies down in the weirdest ways. He's still a playful guy, just not very wild. Gentle is the name of Mushmelon's game.
