Moon-pie

Male · Kitten · 2 months

Come and meet our little Moon Pie! Moon Pie is a small kitten with a big voice and big personality to match. He has a lot to say especially when your not giving him the attention he craves. He can take his time to warm up to people and learning to trust. However it makes it feel more special when he does. He loves climbing all over his favourite humans leaning in for attention climbing on shoulder purring loudly in your ear. He is full of bean and shows you how much energy he has when he plays he loves chasing toys of running around after a string toy. When Moon Pie first arrived, he was worried and very hand shy. Making sure we gave him all the time and patience he needed. Using play to help him relax and become more confident around people only interacting when he was ready. His now an energetic affectionate loving kitten with a big voice who loves to be close becoming a shadow. Moon Pie would be better to live with older children who will give him all the time and space he needs letting him lead interactions. He would love outside access to a private garden. Ideally Moon Pie would have his own settling room when he comes home with you, however, if the home is quiet he could be settled into a quiet corner. If you have already completed our online rehoming form and would like to know more about Moon pie, you can e-mail our rehoming team at to register your interest. e cat you have contacted us about.

About Moon-pie

What life with Moon-pie looks like

Moon-pie is a medium-sized puppy/kitten cat waiting at Battersea Dogs & Cats Home in London.

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 Moon-pie, answered.

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