ZEBRA – A1092103
Gone - 10-8-2016 Brooklyn
***GONE 10/08/16***ZEBRA was living a happy life in a home with 3 adults and 2 children. This handsome neutered 10 year old male kitty has suddenly been uprooted and sadly abandoned at the shelter because his owner has “personal problems.” This poor guy didn’t do anything to deserve being left at the shelter where he will be killed tomorrow if he’s not rescued. ZEBRA is a sweetie pie. He’s a little afraid, but quickly warms up to a visitor and leans his head in for rubs. What a cutie! ZEBRA is a gentle gray guy and has never scratched or bit anyone. He would make an amazing pet for an experienced pet home, where he could get the TLC and love he so deserves!! PLEASE RESCUE AMAZING ZEBRA TODAY!!

As per previous owner, Zebra has lived in a home with 3 adults and 2 children and has never been around any other animals. He uses a covered litter box and does not like going when people are around. Reaction to assessor: Zebra makes eye contact at the assessor from the back of the kennel. Reaction when softly spoken to: Zebra seems uncomfortable and slowly turns his head away to avoid eye contact. Reaction to cage door opening: Zebra remains motionless. Reaction to touch: Zebra was hesitant of contact and slowly leans away when the assessor extended his hand out. He closes his eyes when touched and lowers his head when petted along his body. After a few soft passes he lifts his head up and slowly leans in for rubs. Reaction to being picked up: Zebra is very tense when held and struggles to be put down. Behavior Determination: Experience Zebra may be a little more independent, and may need time to warm up to his or her new home. We recommend that this cat go to a home with experienced cat parents.
