Sebastian

Mixed Breed · Male

Meet Sebastian 🐾 Meet our stunning tabby boy, Sebastian! Isn’t he gorgeous? And just look at those whiskers! 😻 Sebastian arrived into our care alongside his sisters, Molly and Sophie. When he first arrived, he was quite scared and shy, but it didn’t take him long to realise he was safe and begin warming up to our volunteers. With a little time and patience, Sebastian has really come out of his shell and shown us what a big softy he is. He is a gentle boy who enjoys his fuss and loves a good pet, but he also has a playful side and enjoys nothing more than having a good play and a mess around with the other cats. He is also very fond of his food, with a little chicken making for a particularly delicious treat! 🐔 Sebastian would thrive in a home with another friendly cat for companionship and to help give him that extra confidence. While feline company would be wonderful for him, he will also happily lap up all the love, attention and interaction his humans have to offer.🥰 We think Sebastian is a really special boy who, with the right family, will continue to blossom into the confident and affectionate cat we know he can be. ❤️

About Sebastian

What life with Sebastian looks like

Sebastian is a large adult mixed breed cat waiting at Almost Home Animal Rescue NI in Belfast.

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 Ireland

Irish shelters require a home check (often phone or video) and an adoption contract. Animals are vaccinated, chipped, and registered. Cross-border placements to mainland Europe require the rabies titer test (TRACES system).

Frequently asked

Adopting Sebastian, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Sebastian?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Almost Home Animal Rescue NI handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Sebastian on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Sebastian if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Almost Home Animal Rescue NI 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Sebastian 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 Sebastian 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 Almost Home Animal Rescue NI early rather than rehoming privately; they know Sebastian 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.
