Padma

Mixed Breed Cat · Female · Adult · 8 years

Padma came to us through no fault of her own. She is initially a bit nervous and unsure of her environment, but given the time and patience, she has really come out her shell. She likes gentle fuss, being brushed and LOVES when people chat to her. Padma isn’t super foodie but does appreciate company at mealtimes. Could you be the right home for this lady? This pet has current medical concerns, namely obesity and a tiny mass on upper left lip, suspected small wart/skin tag, that She can live with cats with gradual introductions, she has lived with cats before and got along fine. There needs to be plenty of resources between them as Padma may try to steal food. Padma doesn’t want to live with dogs. Small animals are fine if securely housed. She can live with adults and teenagers 13 and over. She doesn’t like to be picked up but enjoys fuss. She’ll let you know when she’s had enough. Very sweet with a gentle approach and time to settle. Padma needs both indoor and outdoor access. She isn’t road-wise so needs to be rehomed in a low traffic area. Due to her nervous nature, it would be best if Padma is reintroduced to the outside world through a private garden and not directly onto any paths/roads.

About Padma

What life with Padma looks like

Padma is a large adult mixed breed cat cat waiting at Wood Green in London.

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 Padma, answered.

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