Dolly

Female · Young · 2 years

Introducing…Dolly Estimated to be around 2 years old and named of course for the legendary Dolly Parton, this little lady had some rather big shoes to fill, but boy does she fill them! Dolly is congenial, affectionate, and incidentally has a wonderful singing voice which she uses to maximum effect at mealtimes! Dolly and her six kittens (Jolene, Little Sparrow, Tennessee, Carla, Deanna, and Faith) came into our care a little while ago but were all unfortunately poorly, and required several rounds of medication before they started to feel better. Happily, darling Dolly and her kittens have all recently been signed off by the vets, and four out of six little ones have flown the nest for their forever homes. Now, we really do think it’s Dolly’s time in the spotlight. When she’s not tearing around her pen chasing toys, Dolly loves nothing more than to wrap around your legs and receive the adoration she is certainly owed. Dolly is a wonderful companion with a fabulous feather duster of a tail, and we know she’ll be the cherry on the cake of any household.

About Dolly

What life with Dolly looks like

Dolly is a large young adult cat waiting at RSPCA Worcester & Mid-Worcestershire Branch 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 Dolly, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Dolly?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. RSPCA Worcester & Mid-Worcestershire Branch handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Dolly on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Dolly if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — RSPCA Worcester & Mid-Worcestershire Branch 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 Dolly 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 Dolly 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 RSPCA Worcester & Mid-Worcestershire Branch early rather than rehoming privately; they know Dolly 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.
