rosita

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

After raising 4 energetic kittens, mama Rosita (relatively youthful herself) is ready to find her new stomping ground where she can relax. This sweet girl has slowly been coming out of her shell, becoming more and more affectionate each day with her foster. While not a lap cat just yet, she will rub against your legs - especially at breakfast time - and will gladly accept head pets, purring away happily. Rosita would probably do best in a home without other animals. While friendly, she enjoys the occasional independence and is quite content to hang out on her own while her owner is at work. While you can expect her to be a bit nervous at the beginning as she gradually settles in, with a calm environment she will become well acquainted with you and her new home.

About rosita

What life with rosita looks like

rosita is a small young adult mixed breed cat waiting at London Inner City Kitties 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 rosita, answered.

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