He was growling upon intake, but he allowed slow handling although he was tense during his initial medical exam. Reaction to assessor: Welch was lying down, calm and relaxed. Reaction when softly spoken to: Welch looks at the assessor, and then averts his gaze. Reaction to cage door opening: Welch remains soft and relaxed. Reaction to touch: Welch sniffs the assessor’s hand, accepts petting, and warms up. He leans in for petting and starts to purr. Reaction to pick up: Welch was a bit tense with pick up, but remains calm when held. Behavior Determination: Average Welch 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.

A volunteer writes: Welch is a bit wary when I first open his door. Who is this stranger entering my bedroom, he must be thinking. But after an appropriately slow introduction, consisting of me sweet talking and him sniffing, we are friends. Soon, the best of friends. Turns out Welch is a huge lover of ear rubs and chin scratches. So I scratch and he rolls over on his head in delight. When I stop, he gets up and walks over to his bowl for a snack. Why eat alone, right? Welch is a cat that needs a human companion. Are you a human that needs a cat companion?
