08/15/2015 PET PROFILE MEMO
08/15/15 17:00hrs Pookie is female domestic shorthair cat that has lived with her owner for the past year and a half since she was found as a kitten. She is being surrendered because her owner now lives with a family member that is allergic to her. SOCIAL LIFE & PERSONALITY Pookie is described as an aloof cat that seeks out affection when she wants it. Pookie has lived with 1 year old and 4 year old children and was respectful of them. Her owner stated that she would rub up against them when she wanted attention but would run off before the children could play with her. She also lived with a shih-Tzu dog and rarely interacted with the dog because the dog would bark at her and she would run off. BEHAVIOR Pookie is litter box trained and is accustomed to using crystal litter in an uncovered litter box. She grooms herself and doesn’t like to be brushed. Her owner stated that she can normally be found sleeping somewhere in the home. FOR A NEW FAMILY TO KNOW Pookie is an independent cat that allows minimal petting. She doesn’t play with cat toys much nor scratches her owner’s furniture. She is fed dry cat food 2x a day. She likes sleeping in bed with her owner. DURING INTAKE Pookie was crouched in the rear of her carrier. When she was approached she would back away, but she was able to be handled without incident. She was collared, scanned for a microchip (negative) and photographed without incident.

Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Pookie is described as an aloof cat that seeks out affection when she wants it. Pookie has lived with 1 year old and 4 year old children and was respectful of them. Her owner stated that she would rub up against them when she wanted attention but would run off before the children could play with her. She also lived with a shih-Tzu dog and rarely interacted with the dog because the dog would bark at her and she would run off. Reaction to assessor: Pookie looks neutral in her cage when approached by the assessor. Reaction to door opening: Pookie remains resting on her cage bedding, alert with eyes wide open. Reaction to touch: Pookie hesitates in place then hisses at first, but accepts the touch and flinches with ears down to her side with pupils fully dilated. Placement determination: Experience / no child Pookie tolerates attention and petting but may be fearful in the shelter, and may be intimidated by small children. 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.
