Sylvester

Male

Sylvester is also a big fan of being brushed and will happily soak up all the attention before taking himself off for a little rest when he’s had enough. He can be wonderfully playful too, becoming full of energy and excitement when enjoying interactive toys. With his sweet nature and love of companionship, Sylvester has so much affection to give and will make a very special friend. Sylvester would love a loving home where he can have plenty of company and feel part of the family. He would suit a relatively peaceful household, although he could happily cope with a little more activity, as long as he has somewhere comfortable to relax. He’ll need to be the only pet in the home and will need safe outdoor access, ideally through a cat flap. If you’re looking for a loving companion who will happily settle beside you, enjoy a cuddle and fill your home with his enormous purr, Sylvester could be the wonderful boy you’ve been waiting for.

About Sylvester

What life with Sylvester looks like

Sylvester is a large adult cat waiting at Bath Cats and Dogs Home 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 Sylvester, answered.

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