Social Life and Personality: He was not around any children, dogs, or cats so his behaviors are unknown. He is litter box trained and kept indoors only.

07/09/2015 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – EXPNOCHILD
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Ben’s former owner stated he has a medium level of energy and was described as confident, active, and mellow. Reaction to assessor: Ben immediately comes soliciting at the front of the cage. Reaction to door opening: Ben remains at the front of the cage, soft and relaxed, soliciting attention. Reaction to touch: Ben head-butts the assessor’s hand, gives kisses, and appreciates petting on the head and body. However, he becomes overly aroused during thr touch then gentle nipped at the hand. Reaction to Being Picked up: He allows the pickup and remains calm. Placement determination: Experience / no child Initially Ben solicits petting and attention, but after a few soft passes over the body he begins to gentle nip at the assessor. This may be a sign of petting-induced aggression, where repeated physical contact results in discomfort for the cat, or it may be a sign of overstimulation. As a result of this observed behavior we recommend adopters who are familiar with signs of behavioral arousal and agitation in cats, so that interactions can be ended before Ben becomes reactive. Treats should be used to reward appropriate responses to physical attention.
