SCABBERS – A1068356
Safe - 4-9-2016 Brooklyn
**SAFE 04/09/16** AVERAGE-rated sweetie needs a foster/adopter to save her life, tonight! “A volunteer writes: Someone told me that Scabbers is the name of some character in the Harry Potter books. I don’t know who or what, but I do think that this lovely little brown tabby cat looks more like a “Sophie” or an “Ophelia.” She’s much too sweet to have to carry around a name like “Scabbers.” But maybe she doesn’t care. Maybe she would just like someone to adopt her and bring her into their circle of love. She is sweet and easy-going and would clearly love to become someone’s lap kitty. So if you decide to keep the name, don’t mind me. All I want is for “Sophie” to be lighting up some nice little girl’s world.” Make sure this nice cat gets a happily-ever-after to her story, by sharing SCABBERS tonight!

03/26/2016 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – AVERAGE
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Our enrichment facilitator has interacted with Scabbers and at the time he turned and faced the wall. Scabbes sniffed the facilitator’s hand but flinched when touched. Reaction to assessor: Scabbers does not come to front but looks at you relaxed and friendly When spoken quietly: Scabbers comes to the front of cage and starts to eat her food Reaction to door cage opening: Scabbers remains soft and relaxed Reaction to touch: Scabbers solicits petting and attention Try picking cat up: Scabbers is tolerant of this type of handling Behavior Determination: Average Scabbers was brought to the care center as a stray so we don’t have any behavioral history or tendencies previous to what we are seeing during the evaluation. At the time of the assessment she was displaying calm behavior, did not come to the front of the kennel at first but interacts with the assessor, appreciates attention, is easy to handle and tolerates all petting. Scabbers is displaying behavior appropriate for new or experienced cat parents.
