SAFE * 11/18/15 – A volunteer writes: Little may be quiet and unassuming but for those with the heart to hear, her gentle nature speaks loud and clear–this pretty girl would be a GREAT pet! From her quirky black ‘beret’ to that curly question mark of a tail, Little is a bright-eyed babe who looks like a cat half her age but has all the mellow sweetness that makes pets in their middle years such wonderful, snuggly companions. Sure, she prefers to spend most of her time napping but also true, she’s not had the best care in her former home and arrived with a severe ear infection that would make anyone feel a bit under the weather. Unlike most cats (or people for that matter) she never turns her pain outward, never hurts those who are trying to help her and never shies away from a chance to be petted and fussed over. Her appetite is as undaunted as her spirit and with some time and TLC, Little is going to shine like a star. All she asks is that you give her a chance…

Little was brought in as a stray, so we cannot speak to her behavior in her previous home. Her finder found her wandering loose outside and picked her up. She was quiet upon intake and allows handling with ease. She was also easy to handle during her initial medical exam.
Reaction to assessor: Little was calm and relaxed upon approach.
Reaction when softly spoken to: Little looks at the assessor with relaxed eyes.
Reaction to cage door opening: Little remains soft and relaxed.
Reaction to touch: Little was a little hesitant, but she remains in place for petting, closes her eyes, and leans on the assessor’s hand.
Reaction to being picked up: Little remains calm and allows handling.
Behavior Determination: Average
Little 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.
