Isadora

Female · Young · 2 years

Bouquets at the ready! This delicate, dainty dancer is Isadora. Isadora is a sweet, petite girl who adores spending time with her favourite humans. She loves a lap to curl up on and enjoys lots of fuss - especially if it means she gets lots of chin tickles! Isadora may be initially quite sensitive, so is looking for a home who can provide a dedicated settling room for her when she first moves in, just to get used to her new surrounding at her own pace. Once she’s feeling settled, she will soon spread her paws and show you her graceful stretching poses! Isadora will require outside access to display her fancy feline footwork! She may be a little nervous initially, but she has bundles of energy and she’ll love to practice her pirouettes in the garden.

About Isadora

What life with Isadora looks like

Isadora is a medium-sized young adult cat waiting at Battersea Dogs & Cats Home in London.

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 Isadora, answered.

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