Lola

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 17 years

Lola Lola is a beautiful 17-year-old lady who came into our care back in October with her siblings after the sad passing of her mummy. Despite everything she’s been through, Lola remains a gentle, affectionate soul.🥰 Lola loves her comforts and definitely knows what she likes in life. She’s a big fan of her food, with very refined tastes – chicken and tuna are absolute favourites! She starts purring the moment she sees one of our volunteers and is always happy to receive pets, cuddles, and ideally a warm lap to snuggle into. You’ll often find her happily making biscuits. Now in her senior years, Lola deserves a calm, cosy retirement home where she can enjoy all the love and attention she craves. She would need to be the only cat, as she’s at an age where she simply wants to be the centre of attention and the only fur baby in the home. Could you be the family to give Lola the loving retirement home she so truly deserves? 🏡🐾❤️

About Lola

What life with Lola looks like

Lola is a large senior mixed breed cat waiting at Almost Home Animal Rescue NI in Belfast.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇮🇪Adopting from Ireland

Irish shelters require a home check (often phone or video) and an adoption contract. Animals are vaccinated, chipped, and registered. Cross-border placements to mainland Europe require the rabies titer test (TRACES system).

Frequently asked

Adopting Lola, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Lola?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Almost Home Animal Rescue NI handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Lola on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Lola if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Almost Home Animal Rescue NI 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Lola 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 Lola 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 Almost Home Animal Rescue NI early rather than rehoming privately; they know Lola 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.
