If this Siberian tiger cub could talk it probably would say something like, “Hey, you know I am cute, so pet me already.”

Can you say puncture wound? One good swipe of an immature paw armed with claws or gnawing on your arm and you could be Blue-Crossed at the nearest hospital. How's that for cuteness?
