08/20/2017 PET PROFILE MEMO
08/20/17 14:36 Giovanni A1122641 is a male orange tabby & white DSH feline who was taken in a week ago after being spotted around the building for a while. The finder stated a neighbor had told them Giovanni’s owner tossed him out. The finder wasn’t able to get in contact with the possible owner due to them stating the possible owner would ignore and or avoid the finder. The finder isn’t able to keep Giovanni due to personal problems but stated he’s litter box trained, got along with their two kittens, was friendly, slept on the couch, ate dry Friskies cat food 2x a day and it wasn’t noticed if Giovanni scratched on any items in the home. Giovanni allowed them to pick him up, place him into a carrier to be brought into our BXAC location. When taken out of the carrier Giovanni placed each front paw on opposite sides of my neck (like a hug), had a soft body/eyes and allowed all handling. He allowed to be collared and taken pictures of. Giovanni didn’t seem to mind being picked up/held at all; he’ll knead, head butt and was placed into a kennel with ease which was hard for me as I wanted to keep him in my arms.
