WEBSTER – A1069628
Safe - 4-18-2016 Manhattan Rescue: K9KASTLE Please honor your pledges: http://www.k9kastle.org/#!donate/ca4p
**SAFE 04/18/16*** A VOLUNTEER WRITES: Okay, so how smart is Webster? Well, this button-nosed boy was left in an apartment all by his lonesome, likely by his former owners. After a few days he made his way out and parked himself at the doorstep of another resident, who he must have known was a good Samaritan and would not let him remain alone and abandoned. His finder took him in and then brought him to the Care Center. Ever since, Webster has been impressing staffers and volunteers with his super gentle demeanor (yep, all A’s on his behavior test!) and affinity for giving head-butts to everyone he meets. This tiny survivor is now biding his time in the cat adoption room, waiting for his new forever family to sign his papers and take him home. Maybe yours?’ WEBSTER headbutted his assessor. He does have anemia of an unknown cause, and this should be looked into-he’s only about 4 years old. WEBSTER was brought into ACC after being basically left by people w ho moved out and probably figured ‘oh well, someone will take him!’ Well, no one did except to a place where he will be killed tomorrow without rescue. Please don’t let that happen to this sweet boy. SAVE WEBSTER TONIGHT!!!

04/10/2016 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – BEGINNER
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Webster was brought in as a stray, so we cannot speak to his behavior in his previous home. The finder reports he has been roaming around their building for three days. The finder reports he is friendly and allowed them to place him into a carrier. He was friendly upon intake; tolerating petting and head-butting the counselor. He was also easy to handle during his initial medical exam. Reaction to assessor: Webster was grooming upon approach and was calm, relaxed, and friendly. Reaction when softly spoken to: Webster comes to the front and sniffs around. Reaction to cage door opening: Webster remains soft and relaxed. Reaction to touch: Webster’s tail quivers, head-butts, and begins to purr. He leans his cheeks against the assessor’s hand. Reaction to being picked up: Webster remains calm and continues to purr when held. Behavior Determination: Beginner Webster interacts with the Assessor, solicits attention, is easy to handle and tolerates all petting. This cat can go to a beginner home.
