Bumblebee

Female · Adult · 8 years

Bumblebee is a loving little cuddle companion who enjoys nothing more than curling up on a warm lap and soaking up gentle head and chin rubs. Once comfortable, she'll happily settle beside you and keep you company. She's an affectionate girl with a playful side, and she forms strong bonds with her people. Bumblebee is looking for a calm, settled home where there won't be many changes, so that she can relax, feel secure and truly shine. She will need her own quite, safe garden to explore once she's fully settled. She will need a cat flap so she can come and go as she pleases. If you have already completed our online rehoming form and would like to know more about Bumblebee, you can e-mail our rehoming team on () to register your interest. the cat you have contacted us about.

About Bumblebee

What life with Bumblebee looks like

Bumblebee 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 Bumblebee, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Bumblebee?
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 Bumblebee on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Bumblebee 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 Bumblebee 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 Bumblebee 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 Bumblebee 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.
