NINO – A1042403
7-13-2015 Manhattan
*SAFE* 07/13/15 – Nino is a large cream tabby that was surrendered to us because her owner is moving. He is just the sweetest kitty! His previous owner must have given him a summer haircut because his fur is shaved off. He enjoys being pet and especially loves chin scratches. Help him find a forever home!

Behavior: Beginner
Notes: Nino was brought to the care center as a stray so we don’t have any behavioral history or tendencies previous to what we are seeing during the evaluation. At the time of the assessment he was displaying friendly behavior, comes to the front of the kennel, interacts with the Assessor, solicits attention, is easy to handle and tolerates all petting. Nino is displaying behavior appropriate for a beginner cat owner.
Reaction to assessor: does not come to front but looks at you, is calm, relaxed and friendly
When spoken quietly: comes to the front of cage, soliciting, rubbing against front
Reaction to door cage opening: remains soft and relaxed
Reaction to touch: solicits petting and loves attention, rubs body on hand
Try picking cat up: tolerant of this type of handling
Placement Determination: Beginner
