Liquorice (and Sherbert)

Male · Adult · 10 years

This beautiful pair are Liquorice and Sherbert! This adorable pair are bonded and although they don't do everything together; they get along great and will need to be placed. Liquorice is the more bold of the two and will likely make friends first but Sherbert won't be far behind! Both cats love a lap to curl up on and both enjoy lots of head and chin rubs. Both cats are super playful and enjoy running around after their balls or wrestling their mice. This dynamic duo are looking for a home with older school aged children who will spend lots of time playing with them and giving them the fuss and love they deserve. Even though both can be easily spooked they should be fine to settle into a quiet corner of the home and once fully settled, both cats will need cat flap access outside. If you have already completed our online rehoming form and would like to know more about Liquorice and Sherbert, you can e-mail our rehoming team on () to register your interest. the cat you have contacted us about.

About Liquorice (and Sherbert)

What life with Liquorice (and Sherbert) looks like

Liquorice (and Sherbert) is a medium-sized adult cat waiting at Battersea Dogs & Cats Home in London.

Frequently asked

Adopting Liquorice (and Sherbert), answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Liquorice (and Sherbert)?
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 Liquorice (and Sherbert) on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Liquorice (and Sherbert) 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 Liquorice (and Sherbert) 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 Liquorice (and Sherbert) 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 Liquorice (and Sherbert) 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.
