Socks

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Socks is 1 year old and a fully qualified cuddler. Once she is settled in to her surroundings she unleashes the cuddle beast, we believe her true passion in life is showering her humans with love and affection. Socks is an incredibly friendly girl with heaps of character, she would be a wonderful companion.As Socks has such an insatiable appetite for attention, her ideal family would be home for a good part of the day. We believe Socks would thrive in a home where she is the only pet where she can be the centre of attention. We are looking for a home with a garden away from any busy roads, as Socks will need access to the outside via a catflap when she is ready to explore the outside world. Socks is microchipped, vaccinated, neutered and has up to date flea and worm treatments. Please note: Socks has an allergy to fleas, so it is very important that her flea treatment is kept up to date to prevent any further reactions.If you are interested in giving Socks a safe and loving forever home please complete our application form below or leave your name, address, phone number, email address and some details about yourself and your home to:Email:

About Socks

What life with Socks looks like

Socks is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at RSPCA North Wiltshire (Oak & Furrows) 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 Socks, answered.

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