Spice

Mixed Breed · Male

Spice is around three years old and was born to mum Sugar as a stray. Spice is a very nervous boy and will need a lot of time and patience to aid his settling - but once settled he can be quite fussy, albeit on his terms. Spice is therefore looking for a patient, understanding home where he can be allowed to come round in his own time. He needs his own space to feel relaxed and be able to explore without feeling pressure to behave in a certain way. To settle in his own time and at his own pace. Spice will need a settling in room to begin with, as access to a whole house straight away would be too overwhelming. Once settled, he can begin to explore more of his new surroundings. We’d advise this to be as staggered as possible to help aid his transition into his new home. Unfortunately Spice has an allergy we believe to plastic, which causes his lip to swell. Due to this he will need ceramic or metal feeding bowls. When his allergy does fair up he needs a course of steroids from the vets although we are currently looking for more long term medication. We are looking for experienced cat owners who will allow Spice space and time to settle. We will be on hand to provide advice and guidance throughout. Spice is now rehome ready and looking for an experience, patient home, with no other animals. If you think this could be with you then please complete our adoption form.

About Spice

What life with Spice looks like

Spice is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at RSPCA Stourbridge and District 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 Spice, answered.

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