ENRICHMENT NOTES:
02/15/18
[Clicker training] Coney was by the front, trying to sniff me. She growls when I was interacting with a neighbor cat. Was uninterested in tuna puree, but seems to really like party mix treats. She gave fist bumps the first few times without having a treat in my hand, but she got distracted by another cat and only gave fist bumps if she smelled treats in my hand. Needs more work, but has potential.
