Tiggy is a five year old green iguana that lives in the Seasons Gift Shop here at the Customs House Museum. She was purchased from a pet store that was formally located on Franklin Street. When Tiggy first came to the museum she was only a few weeks old and about seven inches long. Now she is almost four feet long, and her tail counts for over half her body length! Some of her favorite pastimes include sunbathing under her heat lamps, and having her picture taken. She loves to eat all sorts of different fruits and vegetables; especially collard greens, dandelions, green beans, and baby yellow squash. Tiggy has been around people her entire life, so she is very tame and enjoys having visitors.

Tiggy is a very tech-savy iguana. You can become her friend on facebook, (screen name: Tiggy Green), and you can watch videos about Tiggy and the museum on youtube, (screen name: Museumtiggy).
