BOTTLES – A1045130
8-10-2015 Staten Island Rescue: Staten Island Hope Please honor your pledges: http://www.statenislandhoperescue.org/
**SAFE 08/10/15** So, BOTTLES had lived with her former owner for about 5 years, and shared that space with a bunch of cats and dogs. When Bottles started having accidents outside of the litterbox, that person decided that bringing her to a high-kill shelter was a MUCH better idea than taking her to a vet. Ridiculous! Now this beauty stands to be killed, but why? Perhaps for something as fixable as a UTI, or merely changing the social relationships between Bottles and her former housemates. Her previous owner gave up on her WAY too easily, which is why her Urgent family must advocate vigorously for BOTTLES, tonight!

07/25/2015 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – EXPERIENCE
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Reaction to assessor: Hiding, pressed against the back of cage. (3) Reaction to being spoken to quietly: Continues to hide. (3) Reaction to cage door opening: Remains motionless. (2) Reaction to touch: Seems indifferent to my presence and touch. (2) Notes: Bottles came to the shelter surrendered by an owner who describes her as antisocial with people but notes that she gets along well with cats and dogs. At the time of the assessment, Bottles is displaying neutral behavior. She doesn’t interact with the assessor, but she allows handling. Bottles is exhibiting behavior suited for experienced cat parents. Bottles’s previous owners report that she was urinating outside the litterbox on new items when her environment changes, and that this has been going on for as long as they had her. We are unaware of what, if any, modification steps were taken to address this behavior in the home, so we cannot be sure what the trigger may have been or if this behavior may continue in a future home. However, we recommend that potential adopters be comfortable with management and modification techniques for elimination outside the litterbox should this behavior continue in a home environment.
