CHANCE – A1045652

***SAFE 08/04/15***“TAKE A CHANCE ON ME,” SAYS BEAUTIFUL GREY GIRL CHANCE-BE HER HERO! Chance is a beautiful 10 month old kitten who is purrfectly healthy but is sadly slated to die when tomorrow afternoon rolls around. This great little girl was spayed (despite possibly being pregnant) and who despite tolerating limited petting-handling, is naturally stressed at the shelter. She deserves a chance to grow up in a loving home and hopes you are willing to take a chance on her. She should decompress once she feels safe and sound. If you can help, please contact a NH rescue who can assist with transportation (if you live within a few hours of NYC). Won’t you please be Chance’s rescue angel?

07/31/2015 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – NH ONLY
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Reaction to assessor: Chance looks neutral in her cage when approached by the assessor. Reaction to door opening: Chance remains crouched dwon by the front of the cage, alert with eyes wide open. Reaction to touch: Chance accepts a stroke, but becomes agitated with the touch then meow whines, nips, and swats with claws at the assessor’s hand. Placement determination: NH ONLY Initially Chance solicits petting and attention, but after a few soft passes over the body he/she begins to whine, hiss, and swat 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 Chance becomes reactive. Treats should be used to reward appropriate responses to physical attention.
