Little Bean

Mixed Breed Cat · Female · Young · 1 year

Hello, I’m Little Bean. I may have had a heartbreaking start in life, but that hasn’t stopped me from becoming one of the sweetest little cats you could ever hope to meet.I came into the rescue after spending several weeks in a veterinary hospital. I was found hiding underneath a car with one of my legs so badly injured that the bone was exposed. It’s thought I had been hit by a car, and the injury was so devastating that my leg couldn't be saved. The only option was to amputate it, giving me the chance to live a happy, pain-free life.You might think something so traumatic would make me frightened of the world, but somehow I’ve done the exact opposite. I’ve completely stolen the hearts of everyone at the centre with my gentle, confident, and unbelievably affectionate nature. I’m a true lap cat who adores cuddles, loves being close to people, and has the sweetest personality you could ever wish to meet.Losing a leg certainly doesn’t slow me down—I’ve adapted amazingly well and am ready to leave my past behind. All I’m looking for now is a family who will love me for the incredible little cat I am and give me the happy ending I truly deserve.If you’re looking for a companion with a heart as beautiful as her story is inspiring, I could be the perfect match.Could you be the one to give me the forever home I’ve been waiting for?

About Little Bean

What life with Little Bean looks like

Little Bean is a young adult mixed breed cat cat waiting at National Animal Welfare Trust in Watford.

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 Little Bean, answered.

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