Mixed Breed Cat · Female · Kitten · 5 months

Myrtle was brought into our care as a stray kitten who had been sadly abandoned. After spending some time with our animal care team, who provided her with the love and care she needed, she is now ready to be adopted and find her forever family! Myrtle is a chatty and affectionate girl who loves attention, she especially loves to hop onto your lap to get some cuddles. She is truly a real sweetheart that has a loving nature and adores the company of people. Myrtle could live with children who are used to cats. It is unknown how she would react to other pets in the home.

About Myrtle

What life with Myrtle looks like

Myrtle is a kitten mixed breed cat cat waiting at USPCA.

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 Ireland

Irish shelters require a home check (often phone or video) and an adoption contract. Animals are vaccinated, chipped, and registered. Cross-border placements to mainland Europe require the rabies titer test (TRACES system).

Frequently asked

Adopting Myrtle, answered.

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