Iolo

Mixed Breed Cat · Male · Adult · 5 years

Could you be Iolo's perrfect home?How has this beautiful soul been overlooked? Handsome sweetheart Iolo is now ready for a new loving home! Iolo is an all-round gorgeous cat and everything you'd want in a family pet. Young Iolo came to us when he was found straying and kind people were feeding him, they adored him and wanted to keep him. And we can understand why…Iolo wins hearts wherever he goes and has vets, nurses and fosterers falling at his paws, he's a darling boy. Iolo is affectionate, gentle, playful and full of charm and character. He's lived with other cats and is exceptionally good with children. He’s not been dog tested. His fosterer would keep him in a heartbeat if she could. Handsome sweetheart Iolo is now ready for a new loving home after months in our care having treatment…he is now fully recovered and fit as a flea! Iolo has been through a lot with his treatment, but not once did he complain or get grumpy, he's a superstar and so deserving of a loving home. We can provide a full vet history for his adopter. Iolo was diagnosed with FIP (Feline Infectious Peritonitis) and had an amazing response to a new (and expensive!) treatment regime. He is fully recovered. Gorgeous boy Iolo been neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.Iolo eats well and has a liking for Sheba and roast chicken…but he's a good boy and will eat most food. He's going to love getting outside again in the fresh air, climbing trees, sitting on garden walls and stretching out under a shady hedge. What's not to love about darling Iolo? He's a beautiful soul. Good luck gorgeous boy in finding your happy ever after.

About Iolo

What life with Iolo looks like

Iolo is a adult mixed breed cat cat waiting at Swansea Cats and Kittens 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 Iolo, answered.

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