06/08/2015 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – NH ONLY
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Reaction to assessor: Nala does not come to the front but looks neutral inside her cage. When softly spoken to, her eyes wander and she looks around away from the assessor. Reaction to cage door opening: Nala becomes stiff and alert. Reaction to touch: Nala does not allow touch; she shifts away from the assessor’s hand and begins to hiss and growl. When attempting to pet her, she swats and hisses at the hand, and then retreats to the back of the cage. As per previous owner, Nala has lived with 1 adult but has also interacted with children 7 years of age and lower. She is usually tolerant around children, but isn’t playful with them. She is gentle when she plays with her owner. She has also lived with a kitten when she was about 3 years old, and was relaxed, affectionate, and played gently with the kitten. She is a moderately active indoor only cat who has been described as somewhat playful, shy, mellow, quiet, smart, and independent. Behavior Determination: NH ONLY Nala is displaying behaviors that preclude placement in the adoptions room and/or may require further investigation before placement in a home. She has tried to swat, scratch, and does not currently tolerate petting or handling. The behavior department feels that placement with a New Hope Partner is the best option at this time.
