Adopt Jack

Unknown · Senior · 14 years

Description: Hi all, My names jack but my SH mummy calls me JakJak (apparently it suits me better) I recently came into the charity through no fault of my own and that my SH mummy actually saved me from leaving this world and decided I deserved a better life than my previous one, anyways I’m 14 years old and was once hand tame but ATM I’m not too keen on those things coming near me and I will bite but my SH mummy says I’m learning that they aren’t that scary and I will allow her to stroke my beak whilst I hold on the the bars, it’s not that bad actually feels quite nice but it’s going to take some time before I allow a real stroke, she says all us Quakers can be quite stubborn!! Have you seen my face? Do I look stubborn to you ? Haha I don’t think so but she says I’m a work in progress and that I’m such a good boy, I absolutely adore my little hut as well as my spoon and bells they are the best things ever but I’m not too keen on anyone touching them, I get a little upset when if you do, I love my food and will shout when there’s nothing tasty left in my bowl, I will eat veggies as those little green trees are my favorite and will do a little dance when my bowl gets refilled, I haven’t been out of my cage for a while but my SH mummy keeps trying with an open door for a few hours but I haven’t dare to venture just yet but I will get there she’s says but this is just a quick update to let people know I’m here and not quite ready to leave just yet, my SH mummy don’t think it will be long before I will find my forever home where I can work on my trust with you humans again but she also says that people not need to be asking if you think your will be getting a sweet friendly bird on the get go as she says I need someone who isn’t bothered about being bitten and have the confidence and time to work with me to help trust and love someone again so till then JakJak out !!

About Jack

What life with Jack looks like

Jack is a senior bird waiting at All Star Parrots Rescue and Rehoming in United Kingdom.

Birds are long-lived, social, and noisy. The species and individual history matter enormously — ex-companion parrots can carry strong attachments and trauma. Ask the shelter about their daily routine, diet, and whether they'd do best alone or with a flockmate.

🇬🇧Adopting from United Kingdom

UK shelters work under the Pet Travel Scheme (post-Brexit, the EU pet passport is not valid; a UK Animal Health Certificate is required for travel into the EU). Most UK rescues focus on domestic placements but some work with EU partners.

Frequently asked

Adopting Jack, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Jack?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. All Star Parrots Rescue and Rehoming handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Jack on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Jack if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — All Star Parrots Rescue and Rehoming will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. UK adopters: post-Brexit travel into the EU requires an Animal Health Certificate. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Jack already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most birds on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Jack isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with All Star Parrots Rescue and Rehoming early rather than rehoming privately; they know Jack and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (EN). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
