Basic Information:

Pixie is a four year old female gray Norweign Forest cat. She was surrendered because her owner moved into a home that does not accept pets. She was with her owner since she was a kitten and was a gift from a family member. She is described as mellow, affectionate, and independent.

Personality:

Pixie has been around two adults and two children, around children she is fearful and will stay hidden. She has not been around dogs and around cats she is tolerant. She is litterbox trained and will use exclusively use the litterbox. She has been kept indoors and will be allowed outside. Her activity level is described as medium.

Behavior:

Pixie will struggle, hiss and swat when given a bat and when her nails are trimmed. She enjoys being brushed and being held. She is fearful of being placed in the carrier and can be lured in with food.

For a new family to know:

Pixie has used Freshstep litter and an uncovered litterbox. She likes to play with balls, string and paper. She had a vertical carpet scratching post at home. When home she tends to be in her favorite spot or stay in the same room. In car rides she is relaxed and will sleep. She eats wet food, Nine Lives brand is fed twice a day. She enjoys any treat and usually sleeps in her cat bed.

Pixie’s previous owner states that Pixie has been around two adults and two children. She is fearful around children and will stay hidden. She has not been around dogs, but she is tolerant around cats. Pixie has a medium activity level and was described as mellow, affectionate, and independent.

Reaction to Assessor: Pixie was slightly hiding underneath her bedding upon approach.

Reaction when softly spoken to: Pixie looks at the assessor with relaxed eyes and blinks.

Reaction to cage door opening: Pixie remains motionless.

Reaction to touch: Pixie becomes alert as the assessor lifts the blanket away from her, but she remains in place and allows all petting. She lip licks, but appears to appreciate chin rubs as she leans into petting.

Reaction to being picked up: Pixie becomes tense, but allows handling.

Placement Determination: Experience

Pixie tolerates attention and petting but may be fearful or stressed in the shelter, and may be intimidated by small children. She may be more independent, and may need time to warm up to her new home. Due to the behaviors seen in the care center, we feel that this cat will do best in a calm, quiet home with experienced cat parents and without children.
