05/09/2017 PET PROFILE MEMO
05/09/17 14:48 Kurt A1111498 is a male gray & white polydactyl (extra toes) DSH cat who was cornered with a carrier which they went into at the finder’s job along with two other cats Daivari A1111500 & Reign A1111501. The finder isn’t interested in keeping them and stated they sounded upset going into the carriers as they were meowing/growling. During intake Kurt appeared shy/nervous but allowed all handling. He allowed to be collared, removed from the carrier and to have his picture taken on the back drop table. He’s a handsome beefy boy who continued to appear perhaps scared and was placed into a kennel with ease; after several minutes inside I attempted to pet him but he hissed.
