Exam Type BEHAVIOR
KNOWN HISTORY: Belmont was brought in as a stray, so there is no information on his behavioral history or tendencies in a home environment. MEDICAL BEHAVIOR: Observed Behavior – docile, affectionate, easy going, allows all handling ENRICHMENT NOTES: 8/27/17 Sitting up at front, soft eyes and body. Meowed when spoken to, started rubbing against the bars. Leaned and arched enthusiastically into pets, almost fell over. 8/28/17 Sitting up at the front, soft eyes and body. Meowed when spoken to, started rubbing against the bars. Ate treats from my hand, voraciously hungry! Leaned and arched into pets, purred, devoured remaining treats. EVALUATION: Cage Condition: Cage is slightly re-arranged Reaction to assessor: Belmont was lying down by the front, resting his head against the cage door. Reaction when softly spoken to: Belmont quickly turns to face the assessor and looks with soft eyes. Reaction to cage door opening: Belmont remains soft and relaxed. Reaction to touch: Belmont quickly leans in for cheek rubs and begins to purr. When petting stops he pulls his head back and pushes it forward against to head-butt. Reaction to being picked up: Belmont remains calm and allows handling, despite having injuries. ACTIVITY LEVEL: Moderate VOCAL: Quiet CHARACTER TYPE: Social, Sweet, Affectionate BEHAVIOR SUMMARY: Beginner Please note that this cat is being treated for a medical condition at the time of evaluation. It is difficult to determine at this time how the medical condition may be affecting the behavior. He continues to solicit petting and attention, in spite of his injury. He interacts with the Assessor, solicits attention, is easy to handle and tolerates all petting. This cat can go to a beginner home.
