WINTER

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Adult · 4 years

Please read our Homing Criteria BEFORE applying for any of our Cats.BREED: Cat, Domestic Medium HairSEX: Male (Neutered)AGE: Aprox. 4 YearsWinter has come to us from a hoarding situation, sadly their owner has now gone into residential care leaving her multiple cats to find homes. He is currently penned with Carrot and would happily go to a home with his friend - but would equally be fine to go on his own. He is obviously very cat savvy, so should settle with an existing gentle cat. He’s a sensitive sole, probably not had much interaction with people other than his owner, but is settling in very well with us. We hope he and his friends all find loving homes very soon. Please fill in our Application Form if you are interested in adopting this catIf the animal’s name does not appear in the drop down box on the form - it means the animal is already reserved

About WINTER

What life with WINTER looks like

WINTER is a medium-sized adult mixed breed cat waiting at DBARC Animal Rescue Centre 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 WINTER, answered.

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