05/12/2016 PET PROFILE MEMO
05/12/16 20:04 Simba is a 4 year old female Brown Tabby. He was given to his owner as a gift and has been in his care since; she is being surrendered into our facility due to owner no longer being able to continue care. There are no known health injuries or concerns. With strangers she is shy for days and doesn’t play with adults. She lived with children from babies to 7 years old and is fearful or plays with them. She has lived with a female kitten and was relaxed with her. She has been around large dogs and was tolerant; she would stay away. There are no known health injuries or concerns. She scratches furniture and has had litter box accidents. When she was introduced to a dog she was fearful and stayed hidden. During car ride she is relaxed. She rarely has litter box accidents, and is both pooping and peeing within the home. They have been occurring for less than a month and no vet has been seen for the issue. This occurs when the litter box isn’t cleaned. Simba is described as being independent with a low activity level that will do best in an elder home. She enjoys playing with the laser pointer, balls or toy mouse; she was indoors only and slept anywhere comfortable. She was free fed both wet and dry Meow Mix. Her favorite treats are Temptations. She is litter box trained using an uncovered box with crystal pellets. She didn’t use the scratching post that was provided which was horizontal made of carpet. She would scratch on luggage. During intake Simba allowed handling to be scanned (negative), collared and photographed.

05/16/2016 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – EXPERIENCE
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
As per previous owner, Simba could be shy for days around people she doesn’t know and she doesn’t play with adults. She has lived with small children and was fearful around them. Simba was calm and relaxed with the other cat in the home and has been around large dogs to which she would keep her distance. She has litter box accidents when the box isn’t cleaned and would scratch on luggage. Simba is described as being independent with a low activity level and enjoys playing with laser pointers, ball and mouse toys. Reaction to assessor: Simba was curled up at the back of the kennel. Reaction when softly spoken to: Simba turns her head away and faces the wall. Reaction to cage door opening: Simba remains neutral. Reaction to touch: Simba is hesitant at first but allows petting all over. It takes time for her to warm up then she comes to the front slowly and lightly brushes up against the assessor. She keeps her tail at body level and lightly head butts. Reaction to being picked up: Simba becomes tense, gets antsy then leaps back into the kennel. Behavior Determination: Experience Simba may be a little more independent, and may need time to warm up to his new home. We recommend that this cat go to a home with experienced cat parents.
