Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Leyla’s previous owner reports she has lived with children, but keeps her distance from them. She hisses sometimes when she’s around the child. She also displays the same behavior around strangers and attempts to hide. She is aloof and independent when around her family, however. Her owner reports she does not enjoy being picked up and is fearful and will hide from loud noises. She was described as shy, fearful, and mellow. She tends to greet the owner by the door when they come home. Reaction to assessor: Leyla was lying down with a low body posture inside her litter box. Reaction when softly spoken to: Leyla has wide eyes, but does not come forward. Reaction to cage door opening: Leyla remains motionless. Reaction to touch: Leyla lifts her head to sniff the assessor’s hand. She allows brief gentle petting on her head, but becomes extremely tense and her ears bend flat against her head. She spins her head around and hisses when attempting to pet her on her body, but does not display any further reaction. She flinches with any sudden noises in her surroundings and seems wary of her environment. Behavior Determination: Experienced, No Children Leyla tolerates attention and petting but may be fearful or stressed in the shelter, and may be intimidated by small children. She may need time to warm up to her new home. 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.
