Meadow

Mixed Breed Cat · Female · Kitten · 4 months

Beautiful Meadow is a sweet young girl with a gentle heart, but she's still finding her confidence and can be a little scared of the world around her. Meadow came into our care after she had weaned her four beautiful kittens. Having already done such a wonderful job raising her little family, it's now her turn to be the one cared for and to find the loving forever home she truly deserves. She's looking for a calm, understanding home where she can take things at her own pace. Meadow will need plenty of time, patience, and love while she learns to feel safe, but with gentle reassurance, we're sure her confidence will continue to grow. Watching a nervous cat blossom into a trusting companion is one of the most rewarding journeys, and Meadow is so deserving of that chance. All she needs is someone willing to let her come out of her shell in her own time. If you have a peaceful home and a patient heart, Meadow could be the perfect addition to your family, giving her the happy ending she's been waiting for.

About Meadow

What life with Meadow looks like

Meadow 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 Meadow, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Meadow?
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 Meadow on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Meadow 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 Meadow 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 Meadow 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 Meadow 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.
