Behavior Notes:
Upon intake, Zoey allowed to be collared but had a stiff body. When being approached in the cage, Zoey would lean her body against the back and hiss when trying to pick her up. Zoey had to be scruffed and picked up backwards out of the cage to have her picture taken and to be put into carrier.
