Mary

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Details: Age: Born January 2025 approx Sex: Female Colour: Brown tabby Mary is a delightful young cat. She has made an excellent job rearing her 5 kittens and now it’s time for her to start a new life with no responsibilities. Mary is an active and inquisitive cat. Her favourite pastimes are kick boxing her catnip toys, racing around, jumping trying to catch flies, sitting in windows watching the world go by, watching You Tube videos of mice and fish, as well as sitting snoozing on a knee, but not always for very long. She loves to be with people. She is a cat who loves to be given a fuss and will enjoy a home where she will be loved to bits. She would like a home where she has access to a nice garden and where she will be away from busy traffic. I don’t think she’s ever had a home where she has been treasured so that is what she now needs to find. Neutered. Microchipped. Vaccinated.

About Mary

What life with Mary looks like

Mary is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Cheadle & District Animal Welfare Society 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Mary, answered.

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