Cedar

Male · Kitten · 9 months

Meet Cedar! This lovely little man found cattery life difficult to begin with. He struggled to settle in so we whisked him off to the loving care of one of our dedicated foster carers and he is now doing much better! He is a smoochy boy who loves spending time with his carers - he absolutely showers them with kisses and cuddles. He loves to snuggle up on a warm lap and receive lots of chin and head rubs. This fella is just full of energy and he loves to play with anything he can get his paws on too. His carer says he especially loves to play football with his balls and enjoys chasing and pouncing on his string toy. Cedar may be initially quite nervous and will need to be settled into a spare room to support his move. During this time he will likely hide away which is completely normal. He has taken his time to settle and make friends in the foster home and will likely be the same in his new home. Due to his initial nervous nature he would be better suited living with children aged teens and above, who will understand our interaction and settling advice. Even though he has taken his time to settle; now that he has made friends his personality is coming through and he is showing us what a cheeky chappy he is. Cedar is a young lad who can't wait to get back out and bouncing around the garden again - he therefore requires access to a private garden when he is ready. If you have already completed our online rehoming form and would like to know more about Cedar, you can e-mail our rehoming team on () to register your interest. the cat you have contacted us about.

About Cedar

What life with Cedar looks like

Cedar is a medium-sized puppy/kitten cat waiting at Battersea Dogs & Cats Home in London.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇬🇧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 Cedar, answered.

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