How do I contact the shelter about Freida?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. RSPCA Solent Branch CIO - The Stubbington Ark handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Freida on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Freida if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — RSPCA Solent Branch CIO - The Stubbington Ark 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 Freida 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 Freida 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 Solent Branch CIO - The Stubbington Ark early rather than rehoming privately; they know Freida 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.

Freida

Mixed Breed Cat · Female · Adult · 5 years

Personality:Frieda hasn’t had the best start in life, coming into our care from a multicat household of over 45 cats. She does find the noisy cattery environment very overwhelming, often choosing to either hide in her igloo bed at height or in the corner of her pod on the floor. This being said, once someone she knows and trusts sits with her she shows her beautiful personality and temperament. Behaviour:Frieda is a shy girl who is looking for patient owners who will give her the time to settle at her own pace in her new home. Once they do, they will be rewarded with the sweetest little girl. With her trusted handlers she is an affectionate and loving cat who will headbutt for fuss and has a soft purr, often choosing to be close to you for reassurance. She has also started to show her playful side. Housing:Frieda does prefer the safety of her unit and finds new surroundings quite scary, so for this reason it is essential she has her own unused room to initially settle in before exploring the rest of the property, and eventually a garden. She cannot be homed in Basingstoke & Deane (RG26 area). Children/pets:Due to her nervous nature, Frieda will need to be an only pet in an adult only home. A single person or couple would be perfect for her. Vet history:Frieda is neutered, microchipped, flea and wormed. Her second vaccination is due between 02/07/2026 – 07/07/2026 at the shelter and the cost is included in the adoption fee. Frieda has no known medical conditions. 4 weeks free pet insurance included with adoption. Adoption fee:The adoption fee is £100. If you would like to make an additional donation over and above the adoption fee, this would be hugely appreciated. Additional information:All rented and leasehold properties will require written consent from the property owner or agent. This needs to be in place before completing an application form.

About Freida

What life with Freida looks like

Freida is a adult mixed breed cat cat waiting at RSPCA Solent Branch CIO - The Stubbington Ark 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.
