Mercedes

Mixed Breed Cat · Female · Young · 1 year

Mercedes is a beautiful young mum whose kittens have flown the nest and now it is her turn to be cared for in her forever home! She is a beautiful 17 month old Tortoiseshell female that arrived with us as a stray with 3 tiny kittens that had just been born. Mercedes is a friendly, chatty lady who adores human company. She enjoys sitting with people and loves strokes. She is also very playful, often chasing fishing rod toys and noisy ball toys. Beware as she likes to toss these around. Mercedes is very food motivated and has a grain free diet, along with calming medication to ease her anxious overgrooming. She has been suffering with alopecia from this so may need future vet treatment. She loves tummy and chin rubs and would make a great addition to a nice calm home.

About Mercedes

What life with Mercedes looks like

Mercedes is a very small young adult mixed breed cat cat waiting at Bristol Animal Rescue Centre in Bristol.

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 Mercedes, answered.

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