Alexander

Mixed Breed ยท Male

**Meet Alexander** ๐Ÿฉถ Just look at this handsome boy! Alexander is a stunning young cat who is searching for the forever home he truly deserves. Alexander arrived into our care as part of our large intake of 62 cats and has settled in beautifully. He has shown himself to be a wonderfully easy-going, relaxed boy with a lovely nature that makes him a joy to have around. He absolutely loves people and is always happy to enjoy some fuss and attention from those around him. When he's not soaking up affection, you'll usually find him playing with his favourite toys, rolling around in catnip, or eagerly waiting for his next meal. Alexander is certainly a fan of his grub! ๐Ÿฅฐ Alexander could happily live with another friendly, settled feline companion, but he would be just as content being the centre of someone's world, where he can enjoy all the love and attention for himself. With his gentle personality, playful spirit, and affectionate nature, Alexander will make an incredible companion for one very lucky family. Alexander is looking for a strictly indoor only home, where he can enjoy a safe, happy, and loving future. Could Alexander be the perfect addition to your family? ๐Ÿกโค๏ธ

About Alexander

What life with Alexander looks like

Alexander is a large adult mixed breed cat waiting at Almost Home Animal Rescue NI in Belfast.

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 โ€” every cat decides for themselves when a new home counts as home.

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ชAdopting from Ireland

Irish shelters require a home check (often phone or video) and an adoption contract. Animals are vaccinated, chipped, and registered. Cross-border placements to mainland Europe require the rabies titer test (TRACES system).

Frequently asked

Adopting Alexander, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Alexander?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Almost Home Animal Rescue NI handles screening and the adoption contract directly โ€” TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Alexander on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Alexander if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad โ€” Almost Home Animal Rescue NI 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. Plan for an extra โ‚ฌ100โ€“โ‚ฌ350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Alexander 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 โ€” ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Alexander isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work โ€” that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Almost Home Animal Rescue NI early rather than rehoming privately; they know Alexander 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 โ€” 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.
