At the North Utah Valley Animal Shelter, failing a “temperament test” is essentially a death sentence for cats. Tug Gettling, the shelter’s director, said the test is meant to determine whether a cat will be aggressive toward people. “We want to make sure that we’re not putting our citizens in danger by adopting out an animal,” Gettling said. A cat can “fail” the shelter’s temperament test by hissing, swiping, biting, putting its ears back and other behaviors that could be seen as aggressive. But it can also fail by hiding in the corner of its kennel, he said. In the month of April, almost all cats euthanized at the shelter failed this test, according to animal intake forms obtained by The Salt Lake Tribune through a public records request. Many were euthanized through the use of a gas chamber the same day. Experts and advocates say such behavior shows the cats were afraid and stressed, not necessarily dangerous. And a local cat rescuer and advocate argues the shelter’s temperament test is resulting in needless euthanasia. “You cannot expect an animal who is terrified to behave in a shelter environment the way they would in a normal setting, with scottish fold kittens for sale

returning them to where they were found. The shelter also does not currently participate in any “working cat” programs that involve pairing feral cats with an adopter, such as a farm or warehouse, in need of natural rodent control. According to Gettling, any feral cat that is brought into the shelter and then isn’t claimed after five business days is euthanized. (Trent Nelson | The Salt Lake Tribune) Tug Gettling, director of North Utah Valley Animal Services, speaks during a meeting of the North Utah Valley Animal Services Special Service District board in Pleasant Grove on Thursday, April 28, 2022. Gettling said the shelter was partnered with a rescue for a time that would put all of the shelter’s feral cats into a working cat program. During that roughly year and a half, cat euthanasia rates at the shelter “just plummeted,” he said. But since then, that rescue hasn’t been able to access the same spaying and neutering services that it could before, and it stopped being able to take feral cats. The shelter board voted down a proposal from Best Friends Animal Society to implement a trap, neuter and release program in 2019, stating in a report that such scottish fold breeders in utah

been afraid, not necessarily aggressive, according to cat-friendly handling guidelines issued by the American Animal Hospital Association and the International Society of Feline Medicine. “People often misinterpret cat behavior and how cats deal with stress and conflict,” the guidelines state. “... As both predator and prey animals, cats often show fear or defensiveness in unfamiliar environments or with unfamiliar people.” Kelley Bollen, a certified animal behavior consultant and shelter behavior specialist based in Reno, Nevada, said a loud, chaotic shelter can put any cat into survival mode. “Cats that would be perfectly fine in a home and that are nice, social, friendly cats ... could be aggressive in a shelter,” she said. “And so it’s not really fair to say that this cat needs to die based on the fight-or-flight behavior it’s exhibiting in a cage.” The term “temperament test” itself has been outdated for 10 to 15 years, she said, adding, “we determined a long time ago that we are not testing the temperament of the animal.” (Leah Hogsten | The Salt Lake Tribune) Adult cats up for adoption at the North Utah Valley Animal Shelter, Aug. 23, 2022.

By Val Williams | The Public Forum | Sep. 15, 2022, 12:00 p.m. I wish I still had the Aug. 28 paper. I don’t remember the names of the facility or the director. But the article about cats getting gassed if they didn’t pass some idiotic “test” was horrifying. Neither my wife nor I could finish the article because it made us so sick, sad and angry. We both figured there would be letters in the Public Forum by now. Since there haven’t been, here goes. The article described how cats not displaying ideal temperament at the shelter should be gassed. Let me explain what on God’s green earth is wrong with that logic: 1) A cat that’s lost its home is bound to be defensive and scared out of its wits. What should we do? Gas it. 2) My.

pet that many people think are cute but actually are not, according to Cat, are flat face dog breeds. The vet added: “These dogs have amazing personalities and make wonderful pets, but we have to talk about how they suffer for the way they look. “First of all many of these dogs struggle to breathe normally, starting with nostrils that are often just tiny little slits. “Their faces might be flat on the outside but on the inside they often have nearly as much tissue as a dog with a normal length nose and that can really compromise their airways. “You know those ‘cute’ pictures all over the internet of dogs like this falling asleep with toys in their mouths or their head propped up, they do that because when they relax, all that extra tissue at the back of their mouths completely collapses and without the toy or propping their head upm they would literally suffocate while they sleep. “They also suffer with lots of skin problems, particularly sweaty, itchy skin folds. “Painful dental decay is common because the same amount of teeth as this guy has are jammed into this tiny space. “Spinal abnormalities are really common, meaning.

closely monitor medication changes and effects, and provide care for youth with some chronic medical conditions that cannot be safely cared for at other assessment programs. What the CAT Program is NOT The CAT program is not a substitute for an acute inpatient psychiatric admission. The CAT program can help stabilize a youth and identify underlying medical and psychiatric conditions; however, a comprehensive and full assessment cannot be done in the duration of time limited by an acute inpatient hospitalization. Insurance companies do not often authorize inpatient psychiatric hospitalization beyond three to 10 days. While much good can be done in this timeframe, it does not lend itself to more expansive diagnostic and therapeutic interventions that the CAT program is designed to implement. Who is the treatment team? Our treatment team consists of a:
child and adolescent psychiatrist,
psychologist,
social worker,
education specialist,
expressive therapists (music, art, and recreation therapy),

seized by police who believed it was a protected Scottish wildcat turned out to be a domestic tabby. North Wales Police was told a man had been keeping the animal without a licence in the Conwy area. It was examined by an expert, who concluded it was a domestic cat which may have some wildcat genes. Police said "significant fundraising" had been carried out in relation to the cat and a 43-year-old man is helping them with inquiries. They are similar to a large tabby cat in appearance and are believed to be endangered because of habitat loss and being bred with domestic cats. Environmental groups Natural Resources Wales and NatureScot took the animal from Conwy in February. An expert in wildcat identification concluded it was a domestic tabby cat which may have a low proportion of wildcat genes - but not enough to consider it a Scottish wildcat. A NatureScot spokesman said: "In this case the animal was not assessed as being from a protected species. "While there are provisions in legislation that allow for the caring and rehabilitation of protected species, NatureScot strongly encourage early communication with our licensing team to help guard against any offences being committed.
