Zowie (pronounced like Zoey) came to Free Flight after changes in his former owners’ living situation drastically reduced how much time and attention they could give him, and Zowie developed some unhealthy habits, like screaming and being aggressive towards his family members. Zowie is looking for someone who understands that these behaviors could show up again in the future and will be able to act accordingly. His future family would need to find a balance between giving him plenty of attention to meet his social needs and giving him alone time with toys and enrichment to prevent him from becoming over-bonded.
