Has this cat ever bitten another animal Yes
What were the circumstances /My other cat but never any punctures or infections.
Just clumps of hair found around my house and scratches on my other cat
Has this cat ever bit a person? YEs.Did the bite
break skin and bleed? Yes
What date did the bite occur?9/6/2023
What location did the bite occur in? (Ex., park, home, car) Knuckle
What was the pet doing before the bite? (Ex. playing with toy, eating, drinking) / ¿Qué hacía la
mascota antes de la mordedura? (Ej. jugar con juguetes, comer, beber)
He ate dog medication so I was getting him in the carrier to take him to the vet and i startled him, scruffing
him and tried to force him in. He resisted, bit me
Please select any behaviors observed before the bite: Scared meowing
Were any resources involved: Nothing -
Who did the pet bite? Woman
Age of the person bit? He bit me, his owner who he loved. 36 years old
Had the injured party interacted with this animal before? If yes, please explain::Yes he loved me, I was his owner. I scared him and that’s why he bit
Please describe the injury in detail (Ex., location of the injury, number of bites/punctures,
lacerations, bruising): Puncture that eventually needed surgery on my knuckle to drain the infection a month later. It didn’tget
infected right away because I scrubbed it for 15 mins but a deep puncture pushed bacteria way down into my joint and it became septic
Where are the litterboxes located? He goes outside mostly but would use it in the winter. It was in my home office in a corner
Please describe what you think the best home for this cat would be: A patient, cat loving and cat understanding woman with no other pets. I truly could see him warming up to
a lady and enjoying life. Or a working barn cat scenario because he has always been indoor/outdoor so it
might be really hard to keep him in. With that I worry he will just run away and be a stray again.
Is there anything else you would like to tell us? I do not want him back but I hope he finds a good home. I do not want to know the outcome. Thank you for taking care of him.
