Sherlock & Holmes

Mixed Breed · Male · Kitten · 6 months

Sherlock & Holmes are 6 month year old brothers. They’re a little shy with new people but are full of energy and looking for their fur-ever home together. They’re looking for a household without dogs and without younger children (9+ years upwards should be fine). If you think you could offer Sherlock & Holmes a forever home, please get in touch with STOPFORD CAT RESCUE (t: ) and we can arrange an introduction so you can make up your mind. Please note, we generally only home in the Stockport local area so full post-adoption support can be given if necessary. If you are not sure, please do get in touch – we pride ourselves on getting a perfect match. email: stopford. cats. comwebsite: www. stopfordcats. org. uk/adopt/telephone:

About Sherlock & Holmes

What life with Sherlock & Holmes looks like

Sherlock & Holmes is a puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Stopford Cat Rescue in United Kingdom.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇬🇧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 Sherlock & Holmes, answered.

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