Minnie

Mixed Breed Cat · Female · Adult · 4 years

Hello, my name is Minnie, and I am looking for my new forever home. I was sadly surrendered to Raystede due to a relationship breakdown. Could you offer me my new purrfect home? My personality: I am a sweet little lady who can be a bit shy at first but loves to have lots of affection and cuddles. In my previous home, I was a known lap cat and loves to be near you and get comfy and cosy! I am taking a bit of time to settle into the cattery, but love to have fusses and have started to come out and heat butt everyone to let them know I am there. I am also very chatty, especially at dinner time. I can be nervous of people I don’t know and can hide away, but I am super affectionate with people I know. Children: I could either live in an adult-only home, or could be suited to living with older, sensible children or teenagers who can respect my space when I need it. Other animals: I have previously lived with another cat who didn’t like me, but I could be suited to living with another cat if our personalities matched. I would not like to share my new home with a dog please. Additional needs: I would love to have a garden to call my own which is away from busy roads where I can wander and potter safely. It isn’t known whether I will hunt so do expect a present or two! Could you offer me my new purrfect home? Love Minnie xxx

About Minnie

What life with Minnie looks like

Minnie is an adult mixed breed cat cat waiting at Raystede Centre in Ringmer.

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 Minnie, answered.

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