Whimsy & Whisp

Mixed Breed Cat · Female · Kitten · 4 months

These pretty kittens were admitted to our care at only 5 weeks of age suffering from a bad case of cat flu. After treatment and care from our vet and animal care teams, this duo are ready to find themselves their new home. Whimsy and Whisp are a beautiful pair who share a lovely bond and are looking for a home together. Both kittens are playful, they enjoy relaxing and exploring and are always happiest when they have each other for company. Whimsy is a bit more confident than his sister, he enjoys getting involved in daily life and likes gentle affection and although Whisp prefers to watch, she does join in when she feels comfortable. They both have a very sweet nature and are playful kittens who we know, once settled, will make great companions for their new family. They both can be a little reserved and shy at first, but once they feel safe and comfortable around you, they come out of their shells and love receiving attention and gentle head rubs! These pair have a curious nature, they have a love for playing and climbing and are often found snuggling up together, watching the comings and goings of our cattery unit in their cosy bed. As a result of cat flu, Whimsy does have some corneal scarring on both eyes, which may continue to improve over time. Despite this, it certainly doesn’t hold him back and he enjoys life to the fullest. They would prefer an indoor-only home where they can stay safe and comfortable. Due to their shyer natures, they would be best suited with a family who have experience with cats and would prefer to live in a quieter household with older children who have a sensible approach to cats.

About Whimsy & Whisp

What life with Whimsy & Whisp looks like

Whimsy & Whisp is a kitten mixed breed cat cat waiting at USPCA.

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 — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇮🇪Adopting from Ireland

Irish shelters require a home check (often phone or video) and an adoption contract. Animals are vaccinated, chipped, and registered. Cross-border placements to mainland Europe require the rabies titer test (TRACES system).

Frequently asked

Adopting Whimsy & Whisp, answered.

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