It does sound like Tigger isn't feeling well from your description! It sounds like he may be in pain when he's moving around, and I would take him into the vet first thing in the morning for an exam. He could have an injury that is causing him a lot of pain to move, and he should be evaluated to find out why he's having trouble moving and making noises when he moves. He might also benefit from some pain medications. Do not give him any human pain medications, many are toxic to cats and fatal if given. If the vet feels he needs them, they can prescribe them for Tigger at his visit tomorrow morning.
