Adoption information
I've been adopted!
About Jake - Located in Preston
He is a cheeky, playful and extremely loving/smoochy boy. Please read his medical notes.
He most definitely needs lots of play and exercise to curb any ‘behaviour’ issues (he has pounced at my legs a few times trying to initiate a play session, but only when I have gotten stuck at work for longer than usual) it’s very easy to redirect him to his toys and tunnels and engage with him to tucker him out. He’s a standard ginger boy full of beans.
He can get bitey if I push my luck when brushing him, but nothing malicious and I make sure to keep his nail tips trimmed to save my arms when we play.
He follows me everywhere.
I free feed him and that seems to work perfectly with his stress/anxiety surrounding food, he has been a dream since open access to Z/D and isn’t overeating. Although given his strict diet, nothing can be left out in the kitchen or he will climb and steal whatever he can- he’s a very opportunistic little man.
All in all he is such a laugh - constantly playing or cuddling, he sleeps on the bed with me every night. A fantastic little companion

Medical notes
Jake suffers from Chronic Allergic Skin Disease. It is managed with strict hypoallergenic diet (Hills Zd) and oral steroids twice a week. He must be kept indoors only as he is allergic to many things outside. He will likely have flare ups from time to time which include itchy skin and ear infections which might require veterinary treatment. Jake has had a large number of teeth removed previously.
