07/17/2017 PET PROFILE MEMO
07/17/17 18:18 Limited profile, stray. Finder stated that the cat allowed for easy handling, no struggle or hissing. She did state how weak and frail the cat appeared when she saw her and this was apparent to the counselor during intake. The cat was extremely off balance and was facing the back corner of the carrier and would not turn around. Counselor lifted off the top of the carrier and put wet food next to her, she then perked up and lifted her head. The cat tried to turn around but lost her balance and sat down. After a few minutes she did start to eat. Counselor placed food in the new carrier and transferred her over. She allowed for handling and did not fight, hiss, or swat at anyone.
