How do I contact the shelter about Margot?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Wythall Animal Sanctuary handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Margot on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Margot if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Wythall Animal Sanctuary 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 Margot 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 Margot 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 Wythall Animal Sanctuary early rather than rehoming privately; they know Margot 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.

Margot

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Young · 1 year

I’m a confident, vocal girl who is looking for a safe forever home Hey everyone, my name is Margot. I was brought to the sanctuary by a member of the public after being found shut inside a carrier behind some shops! The sanctuary had no space at the time but knew that I needed help so they took me in to keep me safe. Sadly, I didn’t have a microchip so there was no way of tracing my owners and no one got in contact in search of me. It could only be assumed that I had been abandoned behind those shops, but unfortunately the humans will never know the true story. All I know is that I was very confused and wasn’t sure what was happening. I was a tiny bit hissy and growly at first but this was only because I was scared. After a few days, I settled right in and showed my true self- a gentle, loving, friendly girly who just needed to know that I could trust these new humans, after being let down by others.I wasn’t neutered when I arrived here so my carer booked me in to be spayed ASAP in case I was pregnant, as I was only young. Thankfully I wasn’t pregnant or if I was then it was very early stages. I have now also had my vaccinations done and am ready to find my forever family. I am a lovely girl and although I put on a confident front, I am sensitive and can be a little wary initially until I trust you. I wish I could tell the humans my story, but if I’m honest I would like to put it all behind me and continue on my journey into my new life. I really hope I find my forever home soon, with caring humans who will never leave me. Could you promise me that? I am looking for a loving home where I can relax and know that I am safe. I really am not asking for much, just a family who loves me and a home to call my own. I was left outside at the beginning of summer, but with winter coming, hopefully I will have my own cosy bed to sleep in and lots of warm radiators to keep me toasty. I don’t really remember Christmas last year, but maybe this year I may even get my own present or two?As I am such a loving girl, I could live with children, but perhaps not a really busy household with lots of young children as this may be too much for me. One or two children will be fine though, I think I would love curling up for cuddles with mini humans and growing up together with them.I have shown here at the sanctuary that I really am not a fan of other cats at all. In fact, I am scared of them. I try to make myself scary by hissing and growling but they do scare me, and I become really stressed when I see another cat! My carer thinks that this might be because I have had bad experiences with cats in the past, perhaps being chased by scary tom cats because I wasn’t neutered. Due to this and my wariness around other cats, I would prefer to be the only cat in my home. I would prefer not to live with dogs either as I haven’t had much experience with them and they also scare me a little.In my new home, I would like to have my own garden to explore and maybe enjoy little adventures. I will however need to be kept indoors while I settle in and get to know my new family. I could also live happily as an indoor only cat, but will need lots of toys, cat furniture etc to keep my mind stimulated and enriched.

About Margot

What life with Margot looks like

Margot is a very small young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Wythall Animal Sanctuary in United Kingdom.

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.
