Tumaini
Name: Tumaini
Name Pronunciation: Too-my-nee
Age: unknown
Gender: female
Date of Birth: 10/7/2005
Species: cheetard (cheetah x leopard)
Family: Shynx (mother), Emma (half-sister), Lea (half-sister), Jason (half-brother), Felix (half-brother), Faraji (half-brother), Amber (half-sister), Vrai (half-brother, stillborn), Okoka (half-brother, deceased), Cabu (brother, stillborn), Stymie (sister, deceased), Shura (half-sister, stillborn), Addis (brother)
Fur Colour: sandy with cream undercoat and faint dark brown spots from shoulders to tail
Animal Eye Colour: presumed blue
Personality/Background: Like her brothers and sister, Tumaini was the result of an experimental breeding between Shynx, a cheetah, and an unknown male leopard. Unlike her older siblings and half siblings, who sadly were either stillborn or else passed on not long after birth, she managed to survive and was left in the care of her mother up until she opened her eyes. It was during this time that she was given the name Tumaini. But as soon as her eyes had opened for the first time, she was taken away from Shynx by the scientists who 'helped' conceive her and her siblings. Tumaini's fate remains unknown with Shynx fearing she will never know what became of her oldest surviving daughter.
