Jacko was originally rescued in 2020 after having likely been abandoned when he was only 7 months old. After a month in foster care he was adopted by a loving family with whom he lived for the past 4 years. However, due to not being able to cope with multiple other pets and a young child in the household, it was not a good match for Jacko, so he came back into foster care. In an adult-only household where Jacko is the only pet, he is doing much better. He will still occasionally nip when he wants food or if overwhelmed, but it is always gentle. He loves playing with wand toys and colorful mice. While he’s quite independent, he enjoys being near his humans and will often come up to cuddle or give affectionate headbutts. He also works a part-time job in the biscuit factory! Jacko thrives in a loving, quiet home with someone who will engage in playtime with him. He loves to explore, have free roam of the house, and is highly food-motivated.
About Me:
While he’s not shy, sudden movements or loud noises can make him nervous.
Notes:
The adoption fee includes a health check, first vaccination in a series and any that become due while in care, first anti-parasite treatments needed in care, spay or neuter and microchip at our Veterinary partner. There is a 10% discount when you adopt 2 cats/kittens. The adopter will be responsible for any vaccine or boosters, anti-parasite treatments that are needed after adoption. Kittens usually need 3 vaccines, one month apart starting at age 7 weeks. Juveniles and Adult cats usually require 2 vaccines one month apart in the first year, then annual vaccines. Deworming is recommended at the time of each vaccine appointment. If you are intending to adopt, please be aware that your Veterinary clinic may be experiencing backlogs in scheduling appointments, so do not delay calling your clinic to book your new cat's needed booster appointment(s). Please note that cats are not tested for FIV/FeLV nor can FIP be predicted. We will share any medical information gathered during our health checks and observations revealed during their time in care. But it is important to know that some illnesses can have an incubation period of 10 days, which means that a cat can leave in good health but get sick a few days post adoption. In addition, the stress of a new environment can affect a cats’ immune system.
