04/11/17 12:12 Nick’s finder says he was friendly and outgoing with him with they first met inside his home. He didn’t spend time around children, dogs, or cats while in his finder’s home for three weeks but played gently with him. He used the litterbox that his finder put out for him and didn’t have any accidents. Nick’s finder tried giving him a bath but he struggled. He allowed finder to brush him. His finder describes him as friendly, affectionate, playful, and mellow in his time that he had him. He was not too fond or playful with the toys his finder provided for him. He did not have a scratching post so he scratched on his finder’s leather couch. On intake, Nick wouldn’t come out of the carrier on his own so counselor gently tipped it. He came out and allowed all pets and collaring. He walked back into the carrier on his own half-way and then needed a gentle pat on his booty to walk the rest of the way in.
