Details on my behavior are…
Behavior Condition: 2. Blue
KNOWN HISTORY:: Aladdin was brought in without information on his behavior history or tendencies in a home environment.
MEDICAL BEHAVIOR:: Very sweet bu tense and nervous. Will flee. Easily handle able. Did well for all medical handling and procedures
ENRICHMENT NOTES:: 01/03/18 Lying I back of kennel with a flat, tense body, head lowered onto kennel floor. Tolerates petting along head and body while turning head slowly to watch my hand, eyes wide and pupils dilated. Needs more time to adjust.
Cage Condition:: Cage is neat
Reaction to assessor:: Aladdin makes eye contact when the assessor approaches, but seems wary of his surroundings and stays curled up in the back of the cubby.
Reaction when softly spoken to:: Aladdin lip licks and didn’t get up or come forward when coaxed by the assessor.
Reaction to cage door opening:: Aladdin is alert and remains motionless.
Reaction to touch:: Aladdin curls up and shrinks his body when the assessor extends his hand out. He slow blinks, but allows slow gentle petting on his head and along his body. After a few minutes of attention he arches his back and leans in allowing rubs on his cheeks.
ACTIVITY LEVEL:: Laid back
VOCAL:: Quiet
CHARACTER TYPE: : Sweet,Timid
POTENTIAL CHALLENGES:: Fearful
Potential challenges comments:: Aladdin has displayed fearful behavior during their stay in the care center and may dislike certain types of handling. A fearful cat will feel more relaxed when given options, so provide his with the chance to move closer, investigate, or interact with you. Be sure to offer incentive such as treats or play time whenever the cat makes a small positive step. Please speak to an adoption counselor for additional information on methods to desensitize your cat to their fear stimulus.
BEHAVIOR DETERMINATION: : Experience
Behavior Asilomar: TM – Treatable-Manageable
RECOMMENDATIONS:: None
BEHAVIOR SUMMARY:: Aladdin may be a little more independent, and may need time to warm up to his new home. We recommend that this cat go to a home with experienced cat parents. Any future home with children should conduct a thorough interaction before adopting.
