Badger

Male · Adult · 7 years

Meet our lovely Badger! This charming lad has a big head and a bit heart to match! Badger likes to know everything that's going on, and loves nothing more than being curled up in a lap whilst you tell him about your day. Badger is clever and we have loved watching him work out how to use complex food puzzles in the cattery. He brings joy and character to every day and is sure to delight his new owners. Badger is ready for his next adventure, and he's hoping you have a space in your heart and a sunny place in your home for him! When he is settled in his new home, Badger will need outside access to a private garden via a cat flap, so he can enjoy the outdoors at his leisure and continue his adventures. If you have already completed our online rehoming form and would like to know more about Badger, you can e-mail our rehoming team on to register your interest. the cat you have contacted us about.

About Badger

What life with Badger looks like

Badger 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 Badger, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Badger?
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 Badger on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Badger 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Badger 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 Badger 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 Badger 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.
