Jemma

Mixed Breed Cat · Female · Adult · 10 years

Meet the beautiful Jemma. Aged 10 years, poor Jemma’s world was turned upside down after the introduction of a bouncy young dog into her family home. She was already struggling with the rather hectic nature of the busy household, so the arrival of an exuberant pup was simply too much for her and as a consequence she was spending her days upstairs, hiding away under a bed. Her family recognised that this was no life for her and sought our help, and we are now seeking her forever home. She initially settled in really well to the cattery, clearly relieved to have a pen to call her own with a strict "no dogs" policy! However, we have noticed that she has become a little guarded over her personal space - her box bed is her sanctuary, so people must wait for her to come to them. Once she does, she is all about the miaows and head bumps - just be sure to allow things to be on her terms! Jemma is clearly a girl who prefers a quieter pace of life, so we are seeking a calm home with no other pets and no children. With people she loves and trusts she is extremely sweet natured, so we can see that she is going to make a cat-savvy someone the most wonderful and affectionate companion. If you have a quiet home and lots of love to give to a feline friend, then Jemma could be the girl for you.

About Jemma

What life with Jemma looks like

Jemma is a adult mixed breed cat cat waiting at RSPCA Worcester & Mid-Worcestershire Branch 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 Jemma, answered.

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