Arriving home from work. Clemens was greeted by the smiling form of his girlfriend, Jennifer, to which a passionate hug and kiss were shared between the two. One that lasted at least a minute before they finally parted 'lips' and allowed each other to breathe easy again.
"So, how was work today?" She asked him.
"Went well today, apart from the cold outside. What about you?" While still able to make body heat of his own, Clemens still found that he preferred it when the temperatures were high.
"Same. And they're talking about bringing me in full-time." She replied, with a smile on her face.
"Well congratulationss then. You ccertainly deserve it." He felt his mouth pull back to form a smile of his own ,thankfully a trait that wasn't lost on his new face, even if it was difficult at times.
"Thanks Clemens." They embraced again.
While holding onto each other, Jennifer asked, "Say. Were you able to help them?"
"Who, ssorry?"
"George and Molly, remember?"
"Oh. Heh heh. Yeah, I think I got the information that will help them. Which remindss me, I'll need to ssend it over. It could take a while though."
"Don't worry. I'll be getting dinner ready, so you got all the time you need."
As Jennifer made for the kitchen, Clemens made for the bedroom they shared. Though it was cold outside, the temperature had been ramped up inside, and he found that he needed to lose his clothes to get comfortable, perhaps they should tone the temperature down a little - at least when they had guests - he mused to himself. That taken care of, he powered up the computer and prepared the information he had available. putting it together in the word document, he then saved it and entered Mozilla Firefox to get at his e-mails. This task done, he brought up Molly Wayne's e-mail address that he'd received from Joeseph - with permission from Molly herself - and got to work. What he put in it was:

This is everything I have concerning pregnancies for Tigers in general and Bengal Tigers in particular for you and George. I also took the liberty of providing further information concerning pregnancies from those with the Animatrix Serum running through their veins. The short version is that the animal side tends to take dominance insofar as conception is concerned, though there are key differences. The current observed time limit for those affected in such a way tends to be somewhat longer, usually double the time. As well as that, the tigers kept in this zoo at least have shown a heat season lasting about 50% longer than is usual in the wild, perhaps due to the regular supply of food and stable conditions. So I would expect you to be in heat for about 18-21 days, only ending early should you become pregnant. It's all explained in much greater detail in the documents I'm sending with this e-mail.
PS: I'm planning to head back up next Summer with Jennifer. Hoping to see you, George and your new cubs.
PPS: Some other information concerning the Animatrix Serum is being sent as well, you may find it interesting.
Once the necessary documents had been attached. He sent the e-mail and awaited confirmation. That done, he checked the time. She should be able to get the message tonight if he guessed right. He also thought about the oother information sent while stretching his exposed limbs, all five of them. Mainly forms of contraception being developed for the various hybrid species, a few case studies, and development of means to prevent it's transmittablity from various methods. One case study in particular should catch their interest. One who opted for a European Wolf Species in the hope it could stop the ailments he suffered from killing him. Apparently, it had worked. Three months on, and no trace of the Stomach and Bowel Cancers he had previously suffered could be found, while his once-defective heart was now healthy for the first time in his life. That. he suspected, would give them some extra cheer for this Christmas.
Still he had two things he needed to do now. One. Get things ready for Joseph's visit in just four days. Two, involved heading into the kitchen where his Jennifer awaited him. Wrapping his arms around her, and hers around him, spending the next several minutes enjoying each others company. The rest of the world, non-existant between them for the following several minutes.
