Paddy And Missy

Mixed Breed · Female

Paddy and Missy came into rescue when their owners had children, which sadly the cats just couldn’t cope with. Paddy is 6 whilst Missy is 5. She came in un-spayed, so this was the first thing to sort. Both were nervous to start off with, but Paddy gained confidence very quickly. Missy still needs time, but then she is a tortie! We are looking for a calm, quiet household for this pair where Missy will hopefully slowly come out of her shell. She can be a bit hissy so no children or visiting children. We hope they will eventually get to enjoy the sunshine in a safe garden away from noisy main roads. If you think you can offer this pair a calm home, please complete our online enquiry form.

About Paddy And Missy

What life with Paddy And Missy looks like

Paddy And Missy is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Second Chance Animal Rescue in Southampton.

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 Paddy And Missy, answered.

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