Meet Jackson – 12 years old - The Neighborhood Inspector, Professional Food Critic & King of FOMO!
If there's something happening, Jackson needs to know about it. If there's nothing happening, he'll find something. And if a door, garage, car or cat flap is open, consider it officially under investigation.
Jackson is Hyperthyroid so at present he needs daily tablets to control his thyroid, this is a life long condition.
Jackson is a true people cat. He doesn't necessarily want to sit on your lap (he has standards, after all), but he'll happily park himself beside you on the couch, surveying the world, or flop dramatically in front of you, usually upside down, with absolutely no regard for dignity or modesty.
Nothing escapes his attention. Kitchen benches, rubbish bins, visiting cars, neighboring cat flaps – everything deserves a thorough inspection. Closed bedroom doors are particularly suspicious, especially when they might prevent the human staff from fulfilling their primary duty: FEEDING JACKSON.
He's also a cat of extraordinary confidence. Whether lying completely upside down in the middle of a wide-open outdoor space or monopolising the log burner to toast his nether regions, Jackson has never met a situation in which he felt the need to be discreet.
Then there's grooming time. Being brushed brings him almost indescribable joy. Jackson is long haired and so his brushing must become a daily thing.
Despite all these important domestic responsibilities, Jackson still maintains a respectable outdoor work rate, patrolling his property and ensuring that standards of neighborhood surveillance remain exceptionally high.
In short, Jackson is curious, confident, shameless, food-motivated, gloriously affectionate and completely convinced that the world revolves around him.
Jackson has previously lived with another cat but he has no interest in sharing a home with dogs.
