***SAFE 05/29/16***EXTRA, EXTRA–READ ALL ABOUT A PURRFECT PAIR OF OLDER KITTENS IN NEED OF RESCUE ANGEL! Extra, a pretty tortie, about ten mo and her feline friend, Salad, a purrfectly sweet 5 mo panther are counting on us to be their hero tonight! Both kittens are being treated for URI’s but instead of the ACC continuing to give this dynamic duo antibiotics, they would rather “cure” them with a lethal injection when tomorrow afternoon rolls around. Salad is gentle, a bit shy and tolerant of petting and handling. He earned a respectable experience behavior rating so you can reserve him online. Extra is a little extra scared and cautious so you will have to contact a NH rescue if you can open your heart and home to this gorgeous gal by fostering or adopting. Both kitties need a little time to decompress from their shelter experiences and learn to trust people. Can you be the kind purrson to offer Extra and Salad a new “leash” on life by providing temporary or purrmanent safe haven? Please let us know if you can help these kittens. Transportation is available. Email our help desk and we will help you grab your cape and become a [email protected] BE THE SOMEBODY by helping Extra and Salad!!!

05/24/2016 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – NH ONLY
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Please note that Extra is being treated for an upper respiratory infection at the time of the behavior assessment. This condition may affect some of the behaviors shown during evaluation. Our enrichment facilitator has interacted with Extra and at the time she allowed no contact. Extra was hissing and swatting. Reaction to assessor: Extra was hiding in the cat den when I approach the cage When spoken quietly: Extra continues to hide Reaction to door cage opening: Extra becomes stiff and alert Reaction to touch: Extra is very fearful. She hisses, strikes and does not allows petting at all Try picking cat up: did not attempt to pick up due to fractious behavior. Behavior Determination: NewHope Extra was brought to the care center as a stray so we don’t have any behavioral history or tendencies previous to what we are seeing during the evaluation. Extra seems to not be thriving in this environment and at the time of the assessment she was displaying behaviors that preclude placement in the adoptions room. Extra may require further investigation before placement in a home. Extra is extremely fearful and currently does not tolerate petting or handling. The behavior department feels that placement with a New Hope Partner is the best option at this time.
