Maggie & Arlo

Mixed Breed Cat · Female · Kitten · 4 months

⚠️ Please read before applying ⚠️ These kittens are looking for something a little different from the usual home. They are not your typical pet cats who are looking for a life curled up on the sofa. They are independent, naturally cautious around people and happiest having the freedom to explore their surroundings. We are therefore looking for homes where they can have access to plenty of outdoor space, such as farmland, stables, equestrian yards or a similarly rural setting. This isn't about simply putting a cat outside. Their new home will need to have someone who is committed to caring for them, providing regular food and fresh water, veterinary care when needed, and a safe, warm space where they can retreat to when they want to rest.

About Maggie & Arlo

What life with Maggie & Arlo looks like

Maggie & Arlo is a small puppy/kitten mixed breed cat cat waiting at RSPCA Danaher Animal Home in Braintree.

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 Maggie & Arlo, answered.

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