Memphis

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Young · 1 year

Memphis is approx 1-2 years old. Looking for a home as an only cat. No Children Memphis came into us as a stray and as such we have no history. He is a lovely boy who enjoys a cuddle once he feels settled. He can be defensive when he feels unsure and for that reason we feel he would fit better into an adult home. We do know he hates other cats so would need to be the only cat in the home.

About Memphis

What life with Memphis looks like

Memphis is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Humane Education 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 Memphis, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Memphis?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Humane Education Society handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Memphis on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Memphis if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Humane Education 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Memphis 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 Memphis 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 Humane Education Society early rather than rehoming privately; they know Memphis 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.
