Estella

Mixed Breed Cat · Female · Young · 2 years

**Available from Monday 6th July 2026** Hi there, I'm the gorgeous Estella! I came to YCR as a stray with my little babies, I had given birth to them in someone's garden and thankfully I was brought to YCR. Now my mummy duties are over, I am ready to find my furever home and I cannot wait!! I am such a sweet girl with a lovely temperament. I love strokes, and cuddles, head scratches are my favourite!! It is unknown if I have ever lived with any other cats but with the right introductions I maybe okay, just no other female kitties please!! I would like a home without dogs and I maybe okay to be homed with children but again with the correct introductions. Once I am settled in I also need outdoor access to explore my new world. If you have a Estella sized hole in your home please apply. I can't wait to meet you xx

About Estella

What life with Estella looks like

Estella is a young adult mixed breed cat cat waiting at Yorkshire Cat Rescue 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 Estella, answered.

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