Lottie-Lou

Mixed Breed Cat · Female · Young · 1 year

Lottie-Lou was admitted into our care after she was sadly abandoned outside the centre overnight with 5 of her kittens. After several weeks of care, she is now ready to find herself a well-deserved home. Lottie-Lou has more of independent personality, she can be a little wary of new people and be a little nervous in new environments however we believe in the right home environment, she will grow to trust people and start to grow a bond with her owners. She would suit a family who have experience with cats, she would not be able to live with young children, and would need to be rehomed to a quieter household with older children, over the age of 14 years who understand that she does not like to be lifted and picked up and may take time to settle into her environment. Lottie-Lou would benefit from having several hideaways around her home for times were she is feeling spooked or come across something new. Due to her independent nature, once settled, she would like the option of being able to explore outside, being able to go in and out of the home. Due to being admitted as a stray, it is unknown how she would react around other pets in the household. However she did enjoy the company of her own kittens in our care.

About Lottie-Lou

What life with Lottie-Lou looks like

Lottie-Lou is a young adult mixed breed cat cat waiting at USPCA.

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 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 Lottie-Lou, answered.

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