Adopt Autumn

Mixed Breed · Female

Autumn’s story is one that breaks your heart—and also reminds us why we do what we do. At just two years old, Autumn was found crawling in the street, paralysed after being hit by a car. She was heavily pregnant, terrified, and in unimaginable pain. We rushed to her rescue immediately and gave her the urgent medical care she desperately needed. After a rear double amputation, Autumn began to rediscover joy—learning to move again in a wheelchair and running around with the other dogs at the rescue. For a moment, it seemed like Autumn had finally been given a second chance. We found her a loving home, and she was due to join her new family. But just one week before she was meant to leave, something changed. Autumn started walking differently. We rushed her to the vet again, and the x-rays revealed devastating news: her chest was crushing her front legs due to poor breeding, and her condition was now considered medically “end of life.” Autumn is now living in end-of-life foster with a lovely family who we financially support. She is on daily pain relief and anti-inflammatories, surrounded by love and comfort, and given the dignity she deserves. We know the day will come when Autumn can no longer stand, and we will have to make the heartbreaking decision to let her go peacefully. But until that day comes, she is still here—and she still deserves to enjoy her life. We know 2026 will be her last year By sponsoring Autumn, you can help us provide her with: Autumn has already survived so much cruelty and suffering. Now she deserves comfort, joy, and love in every moment she has left. Please consider sponsoring this brave little girl. Your support will help us keep Autumn safe and comfortable for as long as she is with us.

About Autumn

What life with Autumn looks like

Autumn is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Flori in United Kingdom.

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 Autumn, answered.

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