ENRICHMENT NOTES:
2/21/18
Just moved into new cage, extremely agitated. At the front, eyes fully dilated, whiskers forward, ears sideways, hissing and swatting between the bars. Played energetically when given mouse toy, seemed to calm down slightly. Covered cage, left alone for now.

2/22/18
By the front, sitting upright, curious looking around and extending his arm for attention. When door is opened he briefly sniffs the hand, allows the petting but eyes widen then paws with claws (playing rough).

3/20/18
At the front on approach, eyes a little dilated, very alert, seemed curious. Started rubbing against and reaching through the bars when spoken to. Stood when door opened, briefly leaned and arched into pets, then hissed and repeatedly patted assess-a-hand without claws. Played enthusiastically when given ping pong ball toys. Very high energy, seems to overstimulate easily.

3/21/18
Came to the front on approach, soft eyes, a little tense, alert. Started rubbing against and reaching through the bars, stayed at the front when door opened. Initially leaned enthusiastically into pets, then started to roll over and chew on assess-a-hand. Appeared to be rough play, but minor hissing when attempted to remove assess-a-hand from cage.
Cage Condition:
No change
Reaction to assessor:
Lance engages when approached by the assessor.
Reaction when softly spoken to:
Lance shows interest with normal shape eyes, ears erect and forward.
Reaction to cage door opening:
Lance seeks affection, leans forward with tail up and remains at the front of the cage, soft and relaxed.
Reaction to touch:
Lance head rubs and body leans into the assessor’s hand while purring and appreciating the petting. However, while closing the cage door he switches off and becomes aggravated. He swipes at the hand and hisses preventing the door from closing until finally he retreated to do so.
Reaction to being picked up:
Allows the pickup and remains calm.
ACTIVITY LEVEL:
Moderate
VOCAL:
Quiet
CHARACTER TYPE:
Bold

Curious

Independent
BEHAVIOR DETERMINATION:
Experienced, adult only
Behavior Asilomar
TM – Treatable-Manageable
BEHAVIOR SUMMARY:
Lance tolerates attention and petting but may be 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 an experienced, adult only home who understands this cat may need time to warm up to his new home and family at his own pace.
