RIKKI LAKE – A1048940
Gone 9-6-2015 Brooklyn
***GONE 09/06/15*** Who names these cats? It’s not bad enough that the ACC is a kill-happy shelter. But give a cat the right name least! Case in point- Meet RIKKI LAKE, a NEUTERED, 3 year old brought in as a STRAY! But RIKKI LAKE isn’t letting that stop him from being a total sweetheart! He came to the front of the kennel, solicited attention from the assessor and allowed ALL HANDLING! This guy rolled out with a TERRIFIC AVERAGE rating and now it’s time for him to find a HOME! Please, offer to FOSTER or ADOPT this guy! You only need a little space in your home, but a bigger space in your heart!

08/29/2015 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – AVERAGE
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Notes: Rikki Lake 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 he was displaying friendly behavior, comes to the front of the kennel, interacts with the Assessor, solicits attention, is easy to handle and tolerates all petting. Rikki Lake is displaying behavior appropriate for a new cat owner. Reaction to assessor: does not come to front but looks at you, is calm, relaxed and friendly When spoken quietly: comes to the front of cage, soliciting, rubbing against front Reaction to door cage opening: remains soft and relaxed Reaction to touch: solicits petting and attention Try picking cat up: Rikki Lake allows all handling Placement Determination: Average
