Freda

Mixed Breed Cat · Female

About me: Freda is a super sweet girl who has been a purrfect mum. She’s calm, quiet and easy-going with a lovely affectionate nature. She adores a fuss and will make a wonderful companion. Cats: No. Dogs: No. Children: 10 years and over (or 8+ if cat-savvy). Ideal home: Sadly, Freda shows signs of cat flu – likely as a result of life as a stray while pregnant. Her symptoms will need to be monitored and managed as necessary. She will still need access to the outdoors, except when she’s experiencing a flare-up.

About Freda

What life with Freda looks like

Freda is an adult mixed breed cat cat waiting at St Francis Animal Welfare 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 Freda, answered.

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