She’s a gentle, affectionate girl who loves nothing more than receiving fuss and attention. She has a lovely calm nature and will happily enjoy some quality time with her favourite humans.Skippy is a little more outgoing and is very friendly too. She’s particularly fond of a lap and will quite happily come and settle down for some cuddles once she’s decided you’re her new best friend! ❀️Together, they make a wonderful pair and would love a home where they can continue to grow up side by side. They could live with sensible children over the age of 8 and would make a lovely addition to a family looking for two affectionate feline companions.Chippy and Skippy have each other, but what they really need now is a family to call their own. πŸ‘πŸ’•Please complete the application form below

About Skippy

What life with Skippy looks like

Skippy is a puppy/kitten mixed breed cat cat waiting at RSPCA Northamptonshire Branch 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 β€” most shelters arrange this before adoption.

πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§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 Skippy, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Skippy?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. RSPCA Northamptonshire Branch handles screening and the adoption contract directly β€” TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Skippy on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Skippy if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad β€” RSPCA Northamptonshire Branch 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 Skippy 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 β€” ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Skippy isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work β€” that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with RSPCA Northamptonshire Branch early rather than rehoming privately; they know Skippy 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 β€” 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.
