FLICK IS PENDING ADOPTION - WE ARE NOT TAKING ANY MORE APPLICATIONS FOR FLICK AT THIS TIME
Hi! My name is Flick!
I was surrendered to the shelter because I stopped eating. I was transferred to the rescue to help me get better and I eat like a champ how!
It was noticed that I have an unusually big head. While no one knows why, including the many vets that I have been examined by, I am in good spirits and act perfectly normal. This will be something that will need to be monitored though.
So a little about me, if cared for right, I can live up to 20 years and grow as long as 10 inches! I may be a small lizard but I'm a big commitment. Unlike other geckos, I don’t have sticky fingers to climb up walls. I am fairly delicate but hardy, though if scared I can drop my tail. This means I lose my fat reserves. It will grow back but it's better if I never lose it in the first place. A fat tail means that I am healthy!
I am nocturnal so I like to eat and socialize in the evening with my people. I am also an insectivore, which means I love eating a variety of bugs! Most importantly, I need to be house all by myself. We do not cohabitate, even if another gecko is the opposite gender.
If you think we may be a good match, or you would like to get to know me better, please click the Adoption Application button below and an adoption counselor will reach back out to you!
