07/12/2015 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – NH ONLY
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Reaction to assessor: Igloo lowers his head behind his litter box upon approach. When softly spoken to, his ears bend sideways and he focuses on the assessor with squinty eyes. Reaction to cage door opening: Igloo remains motionless. Reaction to touch: Igloo hisses at the assessor’s hand and lowers his entire body so it’s flat on the ground. His ears bend flat and he seems very uncomfortable with petting. Note: Igloo was brought in as a stray, so we cannot speak to his behavior in his previous home. He was fearful around the finder, and was also tense during intake. He has tried to struggle during different interactions, and may become defensive during handling. Behavior Determination: New Hope Only Igloo is displaying behaviors that preclude placement in the adoptions room and/or may require further investigation before placement in a home. He has tried to swat, is extremely fearful in the shelter environment, and does not currently tolerate all petting or handling. The behavior department feels that placement with a New Hope Partner is the best option at this time.
