Safe 10-13-2015 Manhattan Rescue: Staten Island Hope Please honor your pledges: http://www.statenislandhoperescue.org/
***SAFE 10/13/15***DARLING ZUKO NEEDS NEW FRIEND! A volunteer writes, “With a bruise over his eye he still manages to stay sweet and gentle. It’s a cruel world out there yet Zuko takes life pain stoically. He needs a safe happy home in which to heal. Let him know that there are humans that can take care of him and offer him safety. Why not come and see him today? Offer him a warm pillow by a sunny window and read him a story.’ This precious pet is just one year old and with his awesome pawesome average behavior rating and the fact that he is already neutered means he was most likely someone’s beloved pet. He sounds like a gentleman and deserves a new “leash” on life. His wound is healing nicely and will make a purrfect companion to just about anyone. Won’t you please open up your heart and home to darling Zuko? Please reserve him online or contact a NH rescue for assistance with transportation (available if you live within a few hours of NYC for adoption and no more than about an hour out of town for fostering). Zuko only has tonight. We are his only hope. Don’t let him down!!!

10/06/2015 BEHAVIOR EVALUATION – AVERAGE
Exam Type BEHAVIOR
Zuko was brought in as a stray, so we cannot speak to his behavior in his previous home. He allowed all handling upon intake without showing any signs of aggression. Reaction to assessor: Zuko was resting in his cage upon approach. Reaction when softly spoken to: Zuko lifts his head up and blinks sleepily at the assessor. Reaction to cage door opening: Zuko remains soft and relaxed. Reaction to touch: Zuko flinches a little at first, but remains in place for petting. He leans on the assessor’s hand and starts to purr and drool. Reaction to being picked up: Zuko becomes tense with pick up, but allows handling. Behavior Determination: Average Zuko interacts with the observer, appreciates attention, is easy to handle and tolerates all petting. This cat is showing behavior appropriate for new or experienced cat parents.
