06/27/2017 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – EXPERIENCE
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
KNOWN HISTORY: Julio was brought in as a stray, so we cannot speak to his behavior in his previous home. MEDICAL BEHAVIOR: Nervous but allows all handling ENRICHMENT NOTES: 06/25/17 Lying in back of kennel with a low body. Tolerates petting along head and body while remaining very still, eyes looking ahead and ears tilted. Needs more time to adjust. EVALUATION: Cage Condition: Cage is slightly re-arranged Reaction to assessor: Julio was crouched near the front of the kennel with wide eyes focused on the assessor. Reaction when softly spoken to: Julio’s ears rotate and he slowly inches away from the front. Reaction to cage door opening: Julio remains motionless. Reaction to touch: Julio seems hesitant and tenses up when the assessor extended his hand forward. He tolerates petting on his head but seems and takes a few minutes to warm up to touch. After a few soft pets he shifts his weight then tilts his head allowing petting and rubs on his cheeks. Reaction to being picked up: Julio was tense when picked up, then got antsy and leaped away. ACTIVITY LEVEL: Laid back VOCAL: Quiet CHARACTER TYPE: Shy RECOMMENDATIONS: Experienced cat parent – Julio 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.
