BBQ – A1063506
Safe - 1-30-2016 Brooklyn Rescue: Staten Island Hope Please honor your pledges: http://www.statenislandhoperescue.org/
*** SAFE 01/30/16 *** A repulsive name for a GREAT cat! Handsome BBQ was brought into the shelter in a cardboard box that was duct taped shut, without the benefit of air holes. It wasn’t just him in there; he came in with 2 other cats who are not listed tonight. This fine fellow deserves a name that allows him the dignity he deserves, and he also should NOT be killed tomorrow! His life has been a hot mess since January 22nd and only a FOSTER or ADOPTER can save BBQ tonight!

01/25/2016 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – EXPNOCHILD
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
BBQ was brought in as a stray, so we cannot speak to his behavior in his previous home. He attempted to run when the counselors peeked into his carrier and hissed. He was very fearful during his initial medical exam, hiding under paper and crouching in the corner. Reaction to assessor: BBQ was stiff and alert by the back of his cage. Reaction when softly spoken to: BBQ focuses on the assessor with wide eyes. Reaction to cage door opening: BBQ lowers his body and slowly backs away. Reaction to touch: BBQ was hesitant and leans away from the assessor’s hand, but he allows petting. He turns his head to face the corner at times, but would turn back around and look at the assessor and blink. Placement Determination: Experience No Child BBQ tolerates attention and petting but may be fearful or stressed in the shelter, and may be intimidated by small children. He may be a little more independent, and may need time to warm up to his new home. Due to the behaviors seen in the care center, we feel that this cat will do best in a calm, quiet home with experienced cat parents and without children. 1/27 update: BBQ is not acclimating well to the kennel environment. He has shown a little improvement with extra attention from the Behavior team, initially startling with quick movements and shifting away from contact and now allowing gentle petting on the head and slow blinking at the caretaker. However, he is crouched in his litterbox and remains motionless during the interaction, so we feel that leaving the kennel environment and moving into a stable home as quickly as possible is in BBQ’s best interest.
