Polo

Mixed Breed · Male · Kitten · 3 months

Polo was admitted into our care after being found by a member of the public. After time spent with our animal care team recovering from cat flu, Polo is now ready to start the search for his forever home Polo is a typical kitten, he is a bundle of fun and energy, he loves playing with his favourite toys or getting up to mischief with his kitten friends! After his zoomies, he loves to curl up in his soft bed for a cat nap watching the world go by. Polo would love to find a home with owners who could provide him with lots of playtime and love. He could live with children over 10 years who are used to cats and could potentially share his home with another cat pending gradual introductions in the home. It is unknown how he would react around dogs.

About Polo

What life with Polo looks like

Polo is a puppy/kitten mixed breed 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 Polo, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Polo?
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 Polo on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Polo 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Polo 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 Polo 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 Polo 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.
