Well done; there's a shortage of battle-cat riding in D&D!

That was what my childhood D&D (a BX/BECMI/AD&D hybrid, emphasis on BECM) was -- everyone traipsing around with a menagerie* of pet dragons, blink dogs, displacer beasts, unicorns, hypogriph, griffons, pegasi, and any other creatures we could convince the DM could be tamed/coerced into joining the gang (oh, and sometimes some horses and human followers too).
*blink dogs and displacer beasts getting along or not, as roleplay dictated. Same for griffons and semi-equine beasts.

He's a tiger, not a lion, but it suddenly occurs to me that he's basically the cowardly lion from Wizard of Oz -- turns into a hero with the addition of some c-c-c-courage!

Sadly I do not and never did, even as a child.
I did, however, have a Jetfire, which I felt was pretty much the best Transformer ever made by some margin. Of course later I learned that was because it wasn't really a Transformer but basically from Macross but there we are.
I don't have him anymore because my parents gave away literally every single toy my brother and I owned when I was 12 on the grounds that we didn't play with them much now we had computers and RPGs, so I don't have any of them as an adult. That definitely didn't scar me for life or put me on a particular path or anything like that at all.

Being a parent means every choice you make can potentially shape or scar your kids forever. The ultimate thrill ride. Does this teach my kid the valuable lesson of letting go or do they resent me forever?

I think in this case kind of neither instead it pushes them into a crippling fear that at any moment all their stuff could be taken away which means they have to fight the urge to hoard for the rest of their life.
