08/05/2017 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – EXPNOCHILD
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
KNOWN HISTORY: Jack was brought in as a stray, so we cannot speak to his behavior in his previous home. MEDICAL BEHAVIOR: Untouchable without sedation, striking. ENRICHMENT NOTES: 08/03/17 Lying in back of kennel with a tense body, eyes half closed. He tolerates slow gently petting along his head and body while flattening his ears and turning his head to watch my hand. Needs more time to adjust. Sprayed feliway. EVALUATION: Cage Condition: Cage is slightly re-arranged Reaction to assessor: Jack was crouched at the back of the cage with his paws folded and his tail wrapped around his body. Reaction when softly spoken to: Jack slow blinks then slowly inches away. Reaction to cage door opening: Jack remains motionless. Reaction to touch: Jack arches his back, his ears bend flat and he hisses when the assessor extends his hand out. He seems very uncomfortable but tolerates slow, gentle pets on his head. He grumbles and turns his head away when he’s had enough. ACTIVITY LEVEL: Laid back VOCAL: Quiet CHARACTER TYPE: Skittish Please note that this cat is being treated for a medical condition at the time of evaluation. It is difficult to determine at this time how the medical condition may be affecting the behavior. POTENTIAL CHALLENGES: Fearful – Jack 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 him 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. RECOMMENDATIONS: Experienced, adult home only – Jack tolerates attention and petting but may be fearful or stressed in the shelter, and may be intimidated by small children. He may be a little more independent, and may need time to warm up to his new home. Due to the behaviors seen in the care center, we feel that this cat will do best in an experienced, adult only home.
