Queenie

Female · Adult · 4 years

Queenie is looking for her very own forever kingdom — a loving home where she can feel cherished and receive the attention and affection every little queen deserves. Her name suits her perfectly. Queenie has that special something about her that makes her stand out, and we’re hoping there’s someone out there who will see just how precious she is and give her the happy ending she deserves. Queenie has a quiet, calming quality that allows people to become captivated with her easily. She loves to climb on your lap, leaning against you and looking loving into your eyes or snuggling down to watch the world go by. She also has a silly side and likes rolling around on laps and becoming so enthusiastic that she slides right off! If you have room in your heart — and perhaps a little space on the sofa for royalty — Queenie could be the girl for you. She would love outside access to a private garden so she can explore her own personal grounds! If you have already completed our online rehoming form and would like to know more about Queenie, you can e-mail our rehoming team on to register your interest. the cat you have contacted us about.

About Queenie

What life with Queenie looks like

Queenie is a medium-sized adult cat waiting at Battersea Dogs & Cats Home 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 Queenie, answered.

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