πŸΎπŸ’• Matilda – Our beautiful, friendly girl! πŸ’•πŸΎ Introducing Matilda, a gorgeous 4-year-old tabby and white girl who is ready to find her forever home. 🏑🐱 Matilda is a very friendly and affectionate girl who loves attention and enjoys being around her people. She has a lovely personality and would make a wonderful companion for a family looking for a loving feline friend. ❀️ We feel Matilda may be best suited to a family with older children who can understand that she needs kindness, respect and plenty of fuss on her own terms. Matilda has previously lived with another cat, so she may potentially be able to share her new home with another calm, friendly cat, provided introductions are carried out slowly and carefully. 🐱🐱 🏑 Matilda is looking for: 🐾 A loving forever home 🐾 A family with older children 🐾 Access to a safe outdoor space 🐾 Potentially a calm, friendly feline companion following careful introductions 🐾 No dogs, please Matilda is such a lovely girl with plenty of love to give, and we can’t wait to see her settled into the wonderful forever home she deserves. πŸ’•πŸΎ Could you be the family Matilda has been waiting for? 🏑❀️ πŸ“© If you think Matilda could be the perfect addition to your family, please get in touch with Avid’s Angels Cat Rescue to apply to adopt her. 🐾 Avid’s Angels Cat Rescue – helping cats find their happily ever after. 🐾 Please click on the gallery photos below for full-size images: 1 2 β–Ί

About Matilda

What life with Matilda looks like

Matilda is a adult mixed breed cat cat waiting at Avid 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 β€” every cat decides for themselves when a new home counts as home.

πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§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 Matilda, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Matilda?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Avid handles screening and the adoption contract directly β€” TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Matilda on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Matilda if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad β€” Avid 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 Matilda 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 β€” ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Matilda isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work β€” that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Avid early rather than rehoming privately; they know Matilda 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 β€” 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.
