ENRICHMENT:
01/25/17
Arrived from same home as JC, 1101990. Nervous, unsure, lying at back of cage, wide-eyed, quiet. Makes eye contact when I speak softly to him, doesn’t get up. Allows me to pet all over, body relaxes some, but doesn’t get up. Gently reached in and picked him up, which he allowed, was quiet and calm while being held. No struggle to return him to his kennel. Social, friendly cat that needs a little time to warm up here; like JC, he’s a sweet, fat housecat; the duo share adjoining cages, so I cracked the portal door to allow them to see each other. If at all possible these two should be housed together in a triple cage in Rm. 12. Provided a fresh plate of wet food.
