Leonard

Male · Kitten · 4 months

Leonard is a sweet, older boy who has really come out of his shell and now enjoys spending time with people. Once he feels comfortable, he is very affectionate on his own terms and loves plenty of fuss, especially cheek rubs and a good brush. He can still be a little wary and easily spooked, so he will need patient adopters who can give him time to build his confidence at his own pace. Leonard enjoys being around people and would suit a busy home where he can have company and attention, while also having cosy hideaways where he can retreat when he needs some quiet time. He is happy to spend time relaxing and is not particularly interested in toys, preferring cuddles instead. Leonard would like to be the only cat in the home, although he may be able to live with a calm, suitable dog. He will need a settling room when he first arrives and may benefit from having this space for a little longer while he gets used to his new surroundings. With his gentle nature and affectionate personality, Leonard has lots of love to give once he knows he is safe and settled. He is a lovely boy who is sure to make a wonderful companion for the right home. Ready to adopt? Donate Can't adopt? Please donate to help pets in need today.

About Leonard

What life with Leonard looks like

Leonard is a puppy/kitten cat waiting at Bath Cats and Dogs Home 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 — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇬🇧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 Leonard, answered.

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