Dandelion

Mixed Breed Cat · Female · Kitten · 4 months

This sweet girl had a difficult start to life. At just two weeks old, she was found abandoned in a box alongside her mum and siblings by a kind member of the public. After receiving treatment for cat flu and plenty of love and care from our animal care team, Dandelion has blossomed into a happy, healthy kitten and is now ready to find her forever home. Dandelion is a sweet and playful kitten who loves nothing more than chasing and playing with her kitten friends, racing around, and getting up to all the usual kitten mischief! Once she's worn herself out, she's happiest curled up in a cosy spot for a well-earned snooze. Dandelion may be able to live with another cat or kitten. it is unknown how she would react to a dog in the home.

About Dandelion

What life with Dandelion looks like

Dandelion is a puppy/kitten mixed breed cat cat waiting at USPCA.

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 Ireland

Irish shelters require a home check (often phone or video) and an adoption contract. Animals are vaccinated, chipped, and registered. Cross-border placements to mainland Europe require the rabies titer test (TRACES system).

Frequently asked

Adopting Dandelion, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Dandelion?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. USPCA handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Dandelion on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Dandelion if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — USPCA 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Dandelion 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 Dandelion 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 USPCA early rather than rehoming privately; they know Dandelion 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.
