Is a tiger any smarter than a house cat?

It depends on what you think smart is. They have pretty much the same instincts, and will react similarly to any stimulus that is related to hunting, mating and other natural things. The size difference does have some control over sheer processing power, and cats have been bred to lose certain wild traits, in exchange for human compatible traits. 

Short version- They are pretty much equal, but tigers should be smarter. Cat's may seem smarter because they're used to people and have lots of traits that humans associate with intelligence.
