Adrian

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 10 years

*Sadly Adrian’s condition worsened suddenly and he was put to sleep before we could find him a home. He passed over rainbow bridge with our love and care and will be missed by us all.* We were looking for a long-term foster home for Adrian. He was approximately 8-10 years old and DIABETIC. He was very affectionate and loved a cuddle, but was also happy to be left alone in his own company. He had been in a house with other cats before but because of his restrictive diet needed to be an only cat. Due to his diabetes, he needed insulin injections twice a day and a special diet. Thank you to Bluebell Veterinary Surgery in Bursledon for his care and all you did for him.

About Adrian

What life with Adrian looks like

Adrian is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Second Chance Animal Rescue in Southampton.

An adult cat usually shows their personality within a week. Give them a quiet room with everything they need (food, water, litter, hiding spot) and let them choose when to explore. Don't force interaction — every cat decides for themselves when a new home counts as home.

🇬🇧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 Adrian, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Adrian?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Second Chance Animal Rescue handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Adrian on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Adrian if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Second Chance Animal Rescue 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 Adrian already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most cats 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 Adrian 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 Second Chance Animal Rescue early rather than rehoming privately; they know Adrian 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.
