Children?Fives and older should be fine.How about dogs?Depends very much on the breed and previous exposureIn care21 days Kitty’s elderly owner had to, sadly, go into a care home because of dementia and, even more sadly, wasn’t allowed to take Kitty with her. Neighbours tried to help but their landlord would not give them permission to take Kitty in, so they reached out to us for help.From day one, Kitty has been outgoing, friendly and seeking attention. She is, quite simply, a lovely cat and we suspect quite easy to look after provided and owner has the time to fuss her. Nice looking too! She’ll make a super beginner’s cat as well as being great for experienced owners. Kitty has used her tray reliably, is not fussy about food and has been healthy throughout our stay with us. She’s now ready and looking for her new home. Your browser does not support HTML5 video. Your browser does not support HTML5 video.

About Kitty

What life with Kitty looks like

Kitty is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at Silk Cat Rescue 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 Kitty, answered.

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