Angel

Female · Adult · 10 years

Meet Angel! This sweet girl is looking for patient new owners who will give her the time and space she needs to settle into her new home before revealing her very affectionate, smoochy side. Trust us, she’ll be worth the wait! Once Angel feels comfortable, her loving personality really shines. She’s a big fan of rolling around, purring up a storm and leaning in for plenty of fuss and strokes. She’s also quite the little shadow and will happily follow her favourite person around the house, making sure they’re never lonely for long! After a cuddle on your lap, she’ll often curl up beside you for a well-earned snooze. And if you’ve been out for a while? Expect a particularly enthusiastic welcome home! Angel is a very sociable girl who’s happy to say hello to newcomers and is more than willing to accept a fuss from visiting admirers. Although she’s friendly with everyone, she does tend to pick a favourite person in the household, so you may soon find yourself with a very devoted little companion. Angel also has a funny quirk she would like to share - she has a rather impressive talent for opening cupboard doors, showing off her nimble and agile side. So be prepared for a potential hello as you reach for your tea or coffee! Angel would be happy living with teenagers and adults. She will need a dedicated settling-in room in her new home to help her feel safe and secure while she gets used to her new surroundings. She will also need access to the outdoors.

About Angel

What life with Angel looks like

Angel is a medium-sized adult cat waiting at Battersea Dogs & Cats Home in London.

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 Angel, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Angel?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Battersea Dogs & Cats Home handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Angel on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Angel if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Battersea Dogs & Cats Home 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Angel 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 Angel 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 Battersea Dogs & Cats Home early rather than rehoming privately; they know Angel 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.
