11/11/2016 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – EXPNOCHILD
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Reaction to assessor: Bennyblanco looks tense, hiding in the cat den when approached by the assessor. Reaction to door opening: Bennyblanco remains crouched position in place, alert with eyes wide open. Reaction to touch: Bennyblanco accepts the stroke, but stiffens up with eyes wandering and shows no interest to the touch. Placement determination: Experience / no child Bennyblanco tolerates attention and petting but may be fearful or stressed in the shelter, and may be intimidated by small children. 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.
