Slater

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

He has good hygiene and litter habits and would thrive in a home with access to safe outdoor space, where he can satisfy his curiosity and enjoy more adventures. A little love, on his terms He has made wonderful progress from a cat who didn't enjoy being petted at all (judging by the condition he was found in, it is likely he was abused and therefore scared of humans). These days, he greets his humans whenever they come home and waits outside the bedroom every morning. His morning routine is especially sweet: he loves at least 10 minutes of strokes, accompanied by loud purring and affectionate head butts. Throughout the day, he enjoys the occasional stroke when he's in the mood. He appreciates a balance of human companionship and having his own space, making him a lovely companion for someone who understands that every cat has their own way of showing affection. His ideal home He will need a patient, understanding adopter who is happy to let him approach first and build trust at his own pace. Although he enjoys human company, he can become defensive if approached directly, so respecting his boundaries and allowing him to initiate interaction will be important. He also has some anxiety around food, so frequent, regular meals would help him feel more secure and comfortable. With patience, consistency, and plenty of love, this special boy has so much more affection to give. If you're looking for a playful, independent companion who will reward your patience with morning cuddles, loud purrs, and the sweetest head butts, he could be the perfect addition to your home.

About Slater

What life with Slater looks like

Slater is a small young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Feline Friends London 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 Slater, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Slater?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Feline Friends London handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Slater on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Slater if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Feline Friends London 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Slater 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 Slater 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 Feline Friends London early rather than rehoming privately; they know Slater 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.
