Pumpkin & Pep

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Adult · 5 years

These special boys are looking for a new home. They both have cerebella hyperplasia (wobbly cat syndrome). Pep is more affected than Pumpkin, but don't be fooled, this doesn't stop him doing much! They are full of character and very affectionate boys, particularly Pep, who is a real lap cat. Pumpkin likes to sit near you and will sit for hours making biscuits on you if he knows you. Pumpkin is a lot more active than Pep, he can jump up small heights but not anything like other cats. Both are fine with stairs. Pep just likes to be with you and getting attention. They are looking for a special home, primarily indoors because of their condition. They will be better in a home without any other pets but will be absolutely fine with children, in fact the more people in the house, the better as they like lots of attention!Pumpkin & Pep are neutered, micro-chipped, vaccinated and up-to-date with flea and worm treatments.If you would like to register your interest in this special pair please get in touch by email: - telling us about yourself, family and working hours and giving us your full address including postcode.

About Pumpkin & Pep

What life with Pumpkin & Pep looks like

Pumpkin & Pep is a small adult mixed breed cat waiting at Cheshire Cats Rescue in United Kingdom.

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 Pumpkin & Pep, answered.

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