Seamus

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Senior · 14 years

Some stories are harder to tell than others. One morning, we arrived at the sanctuary to find a carrier left at our gates. Inside was Seamus, a frightened 14-year-old cat who had been abandoned throughout the night. At an age when he should have been spending his days curled up in a warm bed, surrounded by love and familiarity, Seamus found himself alone. Despite everything, he remains the sweetest gentleman and loves greeting staff and getting attention from them. Seamus is so full of love, that even his coat has a heart shaped in it! It feels as though he's carrying his heart on the outside, quietly showing the world just how much love he still has left to give. Seamus is looking for a home where he is the only pet as he does not like his furry neighbours. He would like a quieter home to spend his retirement home- one with older children, and safe outdoor access.

About Seamus

What life with Seamus looks like

Seamus is a senior mixed breed cat waiting at Assisi Animal Sanctuary in United Kingdom.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇬🇧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 Seamus, answered.

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