Portmanteau for a certain hybrid feline

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tigon

(Other definitions for tigon that I've seen before include "cat cross" , "Tiger-lion hybrid" , "Hybrid offspring of two big cats" , "Cross between tiger and lion" , "Big hybrid of the cat family" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
