10/27/2016 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – AVERAGE
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Robin Hood came into the care center as a stray, so we cannot speak to her behavior in her previous home. She is experiencing a severe medical condition, but has been social and easy to handle since intake. When an enrichment facilitator interacted with her, Robin Hood was attention-seeking and allowed touch and petting, though the interaction was limited due to her condition. Due to her high tolerance of handling and social behavior thus far in the care center, we feel her behavior is suitable for an adopter with an average amount of cat experience.
