Lyra

Mixed Breed Cat · Female · Kitten

Flora & Lyra are our lovely ladies who came into our care with all of their siblings through no fault of their own. Flora is an extrovert, brave and sweet girl, really likes to show her affections. She is smart and adapts fast. Lyra is a quiet, timid and sweet girl. She can be shy but once she got settled, she is braver, likes cuddles and petting. They are both adventurous, love exploring the house and have a lot of love and affection including cuddling. They could possibly live with another well matched feline friend through a slow introduction and children 6+ who can give them space if needed. They are indoor only cats.

About Lyra

What life with Lyra looks like

Lyra is a kitten mixed breed cat cat waiting at RSPCA Coventry and District Branch 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 Lyra, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Lyra?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. RSPCA Coventry and District Branch handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Lyra on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Lyra if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — RSPCA Coventry and District Branch 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Lyra 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 Lyra 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 RSPCA Coventry and District Branch early rather than rehoming privately; they know Lyra 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.
