Joker & Jinxie

Mixed Breed Β· Male Β· Kitten Β· 3 months

Our names are Joke & Jinxie and we need our new home together! * * WE ARE A BONDED PAIR AND MUST BE ADOPTED TOGETHER * * Available: 19th November 2026 DOB: Approx. June/July 2026 Colour: Joker – Black & White. Jinxie – Ginger & White. History: We were trapped after living outside and brought into rescue. Needs: We are looking for a home together with a very patient and understanding owner who is willing to continue the work our fosterer has already put in, helping us become braver and more confident around people. We will need someone who understands that building trust takes time and is prepared to follow the guidance and advice of our fosterer to ensure we continue making progress. A calm, settled environment where we can go at our own pace will be essential. Character: We have both come on enormously since arriving in our foster home. When we first arrived, we were absolutely terrified and had no trust in humans. However, in just five weeks, we have discovered that people aren’t quite as scary as we first thought! We will now happily accept strokes, sit close by and are becoming increasingly comfortable with domestic life. We are still a little unsure when people walk around, and we sometimes scurry underneath the furniture for reassurance, but that’s all part of our journey. We both LOVE playing with our fosterer, will happily take food from their hands and are becoming very affectionate. We’re also big purr machines, and food is definitely the way to our hearts! Although we are very much a team, we each have our own little personalities. Jinxie has taken a little longer to come around but has now become the more confident and accepting of the two. Jinxie absolutely loves being stroked and will happily sit on a lap enjoying some attention. Joker also loves strokes and enjoys sitting nearby, although is still a little more nervous and unsure. Joker can sometimes bat your hand away, but with continued patience and trust, we hope this will gradually disappear. We both adore our fosterer’s resident cats and aren’t frightened of the dog either, so we could happily share our home with other friendly pets. With more time, patience and understanding, our fosterer truly believes we have the potential to become the most wonderful pair of affectionate lap cats. We just need someone willing to give us that chance. Can I live with other cats? Yes Can I live with dogs? Yes Can I live with children?

About Joker & Jinxie

What life with Joker & Jinxie looks like

Joker & Jinxie is a large kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Heronbank Cat Rescue in United Kingdom.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months β€” most shelters arrange this before adoption.

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 Joker & Jinxie, answered.

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