Kanger

Kanger is the het ship between Kanga and Tigger from the Winnie the Pooh fandom.

The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh
In Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day, the Hundred Acre Wood is flooded, with Kanga and Tigger being shown rowing to safety at Christopher Robin's house alongside Rabbit and Roo. When Christopher Robin celebrates a hero party for Pooh, Kanga and Tigger are shown attending it. They later celebrate with the others again when Piglet willingly gives his house up for Owl and lives with Pooh from that moment on.

In Winnie the Pooh and Tigger, Too, the second segment starts with Tigger visiting Kanga and Roo. Roo wants to ice skate, but Kanga is busy with housework, so she asks Tigger to take him. Tigger gladly accepts and wants to teach Roo how to ice skate, but crashes into Rabbit and quickly cancels that plan. So he offers to teach Roo how to bounce instead, only to get both of them stuck in a tree. Tigger is afraid of heights, so he calls all of his friends for help. Kanga only looks worried at them stuck in a tree and the group manages to rescue Roo, but Tigger refuses to jump down. Rabbit makes him promise that he will never bounce again, and Tigger is saved by the narrator, but is utterly devastated when he remembers his promise. Though Rabbit is happy, Kanga is the first to point out just how sad Tigger looks, making the other friends feel bad for him. They eventually manage to convince Rabbit to retract Tigger's promise. Kanga then joins Tigger and the others in bouncing.

The Tigger Movie
Kanga is one of the friends Tigger interacts with, but she tells him that she can't bounce with him since she has work to do. Later attempts of his have her join the others telling him that they are not Tiggers like him. When Roo wishes that Tigger could be his big brother, Kanga tells him that Tigger is already part of their family and he will remain so if they continue to care for him. At the end of the film, Kanga joins the others in writing Tigger a letter as a family member he was trying to find the whole movie through.

Piglet's Big Movie
One of Piglet's memories shows Kanga and Roo moving in, with Tigger initially thinking that she is dangerous (which contradicts the books and the first movie, both of which had Tigger himself as the newest member of the group). He quickly changes his tune when Piglet tells him how sweet Kanga is when she (supposedly) mistook him for Roo.

Fanon
Though Kanger is one of the most popular hetero relationships for the fandom, there is a dissonance about it between book fans and Disney fans. Book fans prefer to see them as platonic, finding the idea of Kanga falling for someone she treats like a son to be disturbing. Disney fans sometimes agree, but many have stated that they shipped them before they knew what the term meant.
