SAFE 7/30/16 Pippin was brought to us because her owner is in the hospital. She is one of the sweetest kitties around!! I just went to her and squeezed her toes to confirm whether she was declawed or not and she is!!

A volunteer writes: Pippin is the sweetest! This lady is so friendly, easy to handle, plays ever so gently, and is good with children. She has the prettiest face, but her front paws are declawed, so they will be sensitive to certain things. She will rise up to greet you, and she is so appreciative of any attention she gets. Pippin is that easy that new cat parents (those with little or no experience with cats) would be delighted to add Pippin to their forever home.

BASIC INFO

Pippin is a geriatric spayed DSH cat. Her family got her from her previous owner when she was a kitten and relinquished due to her owner’s declining health. Her front paws are declawed.

SOCIALIZATION

Pippin is friendly/outgoing with new people. She is relaxed, affectionate, and tolerant with children. She plays gently. She hasn’t bit anyone.

BEHAVIOR

Pippin doesn’t mind when someone brushes her, picks her up, holds her, puts her in a carrier, or wakes her up.

FOR A NEW FAMILY TO KNOW

Pippin’s family describes her as friendly, affectionate, playful, quiet, and low energy. She follows them and sits in their laps. She lived inside and ate Fancy Feast wet cat food. She’s littertrained, used an uncovered litterbox with clumping litter, and didn’t have accidents. She doesn’t scratch anything.

INTAKE

Pippin had soft body and eyes while I handled her -pet, scanned (-), collared, positioned for pictures, and put her in a carrier. She constantly followed me and rubbed her head, side, and back against my hand and objects on the counter. She arched her back and head butted things while I brushed her. She didn’t resist, retreat, or vocalize.

 

AVERAGE HOME

Pippin’s former owner stated she is friendly/outgoing with new people. She is relaxed, affectionate, and tolerant with children. She plays gently. Also, described her as friendly, affectionate, playful, quiet, and low energy.

Please take note: Her front paws are declawed.

Reaction to assessor: Pippin looks neutral, lying down on her cage bedding when approached by the assessor.

Reaction to door opening: Pippin remains in place, relaxed body posture, alert with soft eyes.

Reaction to touch: Pippin head-butts the assessor’s hand and appreciates petting on the head and body.

Reaction to Being Picked up: She becomes antsy then jumps back into the cage.

Placement determination: Average

Pippin interacts with the observer, appreciates attention, is easy to handle and tolerates all petting.

This cat is showing behavior appropriate for new or experienced cat parents.
