Ryany

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Ryany is approx 5 years old. He was one of our strays that had had a difficult time outside. With a nasty open neck wound that extended from halfway from the back of his neck to the front which was badly infected. He still has some bald patches that we think will never grow fur but you can only see it at a certain angle. He is a quiet cautious cat that takes things slowly but he has come a long way from when he first came into us and now enjoys being brushed and stroked. He would get on with another calmer quiet cat and has been with our other FIV cat Liam and they respect each other. A quiet home with no children with people who would be sensitive to his needs as he still nips occasionally if he feels insecure, this will improve with time though as he hardly does it at all now. An indoor home or with a safe enclosed garden for this young man so he can have a happy home. Contact us if you would like to discuss adopting him.

About Ryany

What life with Ryany looks like

Ryany is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Animal Aid and Advice 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 Ryany, answered.

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