11/14/2016 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – EXPNOCHILD
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Bow’s previous owner reports she is shy around strangers for a few minutes. She has not lived with children and tends to keep her distance from adults. She has lived with two other male cats and was respectful with them, playing exuberantly. She also lived with a Pitbull and was fearful of this dog. Her owner described her as shy, fearful, and quiet with a medium activity level. The enrichment facilitator reports she was crouched inside her litter box, tense and alert during their first interaction. She hisses when petting was attempted and focuses on their hand, pulling back. Reaction to assessor: Bow was resting upon approach. Reaction when softly spoken to: Bow looks up slowly and has almond-shaped eyes. Reaction to cage door opening: Bow becomes stiff and alert. Reaction to touch: Bow shifts away from the assessor’s hand and hisses. She remains immobile when touched gently on her head, but her ears tilt sideways and her body is very tense. Behavior Determination: Experienced, No Children Bow tolerates attention and petting but may be fearful or stressed in the shelter, and may be intimidated by small children. She may be a little more independent, and may need time to warm up to her new home. Due to the behaviors seen in the care center, we feel that this cat will do best in a calm, quiet home with experienced cat parents and without children.
