top of pageBostonShareAbsolutely 😻 Cheeky,playful,affectionate, adventurous,curious,lovable.​​ 🐾 MEET BOSTON β€” OUR CHEEKY, CURIOUS BOY! πŸ–€πŸ€ I’d like to introduce you to Boston, one of our gorgeous boys here at PawPurrs. ❀️ Boston is actually part of our Cake Kittens family he is their older brother from a previous litter and, at around 18 months old, he is still very much a big kitten at heart! This handsome black and white boy is super friendly, incredibly handleable and absolutely loves to play. He is affectionate, funny and full of personality… but he is also VERY cheeky! πŸ˜‚ Boston is one of those cats who needs to know everything that is going on. If there’s a cupboard, he’ll be inside it. If there’s a high shelf, he’ll be on it. If there’s a tiny nook or cranny, you can guarantee Boston has already investigated it! 🀣 He is incredibly nosy and genuinely wants to introduce himself to absolutely everyone. The only problem is… not every cat is quite as keen to meet Boston as Boston is to meet them! πŸ˜‚ He loves teasing some of the other cats and encouraging them to chase him, and it is absolutely hilarious to watch. He definitely enjoys winding them up and then running away! Boston would really benefit from a home where there are other friendly cats, and I think he would probably be happiest with female cats who are happy to have a playful boy around. He has previously been a house cat and has never actually had access to the outdoors, apart from at the shop, but I think he would absolutely LOVE a safe outdoor space. I can picture him now running through the garden, climbing trees, investigating every single bush, squeezing into every little space and generally getting himself into mischief! πŸ˜‚πŸŒ³πŸΎ Because Boston is SO curious, his adopters would need to be particularly careful around doors, garages, sheds and vehicles. He is exactly the sort of cat who could disappear into a van or car because he simply has to investigate everything! For that reason, I would strongly recommend that his new family use a GPS tracker once he is eventually allowed outdoors. 🏑 Boston could make a wonderful first cat for a family and would also fit beautifully into the right home with other cats, particularly friendly females. He is: βœ… Neutered βœ… Microchipped βœ… Up to date with flea and worm treatment ❌ Not yet vaccinated his new family will need to arrange his vaccinations with their vet Boston is a very loving, funny, affectionate and wonderfully cheeky boy who needs a home that will give him plenty of stimulation, playtime, attention and opportunities to explore. He isn’t just looking for somewhere to sleep. He wants a LIFE. ❀️ He wants toys to chase, things to investigate, places to climb, humans to entertain and, ideally, some feline friends who will tolerate his cheeky antics! 😹 Boston is ready to find his forever person. Could that be you? If you think you could be the right fit for Boston, please fill out our adoption enquiry form, and get in touch with us.bottom of page

About Boston

What life with Boston looks like

Boston is a very small young adult cat waiting at PawPurrs Halfway House 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 β€” every cat decides for themselves when a new home counts as home.

πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§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 Boston, answered.

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