03/15/2017 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – EXPERIENCE
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
KNOWN HISTORY: Skylar was brought in as a stray, so we cannot speak to her behavior in her previous home. MEDICAL BEHAVIOR: Friendly playful approachable easy to handle EVALUATION: Cage Condition: No change Reaction to assessor: Skylar was relaxed and lying down on her blanket at the front of the kennel Reaction when softly spoken to: Skylar brushes her cheeks up against the kennel door and looks around at her surroundings. Reaction to cage door opening: Skylar is calm and relaxed Reaction to touch: Skylar meows softly, sniffs the assessor’s hand and allows petting all over. She solicits attention but can be a little fussy and whips around when rubbed at the base of her tail. Reaction to being picked up: Skylar grumbles when held but allows all handling. ACTIVITY LEVEL: Moderate, and another if applicable VOCAL: Somewhat chatty CHARACTER TYPE: Sweet, Affectionate, Curious RECOMMENDATIONS: Experienced cat parent – Skylar may be a little more independent, and may need time to warm up toher new home. We recommend that this cat go to a home with experienced cat parents.
