MEDICAL BEHAVIOR: Docile but timid. ENRICHMENT NOTES: 04/27/17 Lying in back of kennel with a low body, peeking out from behind litter box. He makes eye contact and flattens his ears when spoken to. Tolerates petting along his head and body with flat ears, closing his eyes half way. Needs more time to adjust. EVALUATION: Cage Condition: Cage is neat Reaction to assessor: Justicee was lying completely flat in her litter box with wide, focused eyes. Reaction when softly spoken to: Justicee sinks lower and tries to completely conceal herself when spoken to softly. Reaction to cage door opening: Justicee is tense and remains motionless. Reaction to touch: Justicee lip licks and slowly turns her head away when attempting to make contact. She closes her eyes when touched, has a tense/stiff body and slowly leans away trying to avoid contact ACTIVITY LEVEL: Laid back VOCAL: Quiet CHARACTER TYPE: Shy POTENTIAL CHALLENGES: Fearful – Justicee 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 her 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 – Justicee 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 an experienced, adult only home.
