nimbus

Mixed Breed · Female · Kitten · 4 months

Beautiful Nimbus found her way into a kind person's home and gave birth to 4 gorgeous kittens. Now she has finished raising them, she is looking for a family to call her own. Nimbus is friendly and loves fuss - but isn't afraid to let you know when she has had enough! She loves to roll around and dare you to touch her belly, a temptation we are so far managing to avoid. Nimbus dislikes other cats, so she would need to be the only cat in the household. She didn't mind the Shelter dog, she was rather intrigued by him so she should be OK in a home with cat friendly dogs. As she can be a bit sassy when she decides she's finished with the attention, she would not be suitable for a home with young children.

About nimbus

What life with nimbus looks like

nimbus is a puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Shropshire Cat Rescue in United Kingdom.

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 nimbus, answered.

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