Species: Syrian

Gender: Male

Estimated Age: 6 months old

Likes: Darkness, peace and quiet. But my foster says that you might be able to lure me out with a tried and tested snack: Sudo Petit Cube Wafer (Strawberry), and sometimes Dried Tofu pieces.

Dislikes: Bright lights, lots of commotion. And being picked up for longer than 15 seconds scares me!

Tac was rescued from a mass longkang (drain) abandonment. Hence, he is extremely shy and timid, almost never coming out of his burrows unless it’s dark and quiet. You can find Tac chilling and running on his wheel every single night without fail. If you’re lucky and you spot Tac outside in the daytime, he will freeze and walk in slow motion back into his burrows. Otherwise, if you’re even luckier, you might just be able to pick him up before he starts walking away.

BEWARE! Tac thinks he is superman and will attempt to fly out of your hands in full on panic mode. ALWAYS handle Tac when you are seated on the ground, or on soft surfaces such as a bed or big sofa.

Tac is been opening up to his fosterer slowly, and we have a feeling that all he needs from his adopter is gentleness and patience. He has never bitten anyone, and his fosterer feels that Tac just needs LOTS of time, love, and exposure to humans.

Are you the one for Tac? Will you help him grow out of his shell? However, he may also never be comfortable with humans, hence will you be able to accept a shy companion for life?

There are no specific requirements required for Tac.

However, see what Tac's foster uses for your inspiration:
