Gus & Ted

Mixed Breed Β· Male

The three amigos arrived in our care after their human companion was evicted. Sadly, they had no choice but to find them a new home. In the home, Ted & Gus shared a close bond and were inseparable. We haven't seen that here in the sanctuary, but it could be linked to the environment. The boys are quite shy here in the sanctuary, although they are making steady progress. It’s been lovely to see their playful and gentle natures shine through. These placid boys will make wonderful companions. Ginge has found his forever home and so we are looking for a home for Ted & Gus.

About Gus & Ted

What life with Gus & Ted looks like

Gus & Ted is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at Oxfordshire Animal Sanctuary 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 β€” every cat decides for themselves when a new home counts as home.

πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§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 Gus & Ted, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Gus & Ted?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Oxfordshire Animal Sanctuary handles screening and the adoption contract directly β€” TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Gus & Ted on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Gus & Ted if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad β€” Oxfordshire Animal Sanctuary 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 Gus & Ted 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 β€” ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Gus & Ted isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work β€” that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Oxfordshire Animal Sanctuary early rather than rehoming privately; they know Gus & Ted 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 β€” 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.
