Winter

Mixed Breed · Female

Winters owners abandoned her on their compound after they left Qatar, and she struggled to fend for herself amongst the already established colony of strays in the area. A volunteer looked out for her until we were able to take her in. Winter is a sweet and affectionate cat. She happily jumps up onto your lap and loves attention. Winter is very placid with other cats and could easily live with another one in the home.

About Winter

What life with Winter looks like

Winter is a medium-sized adult mixed breed cat waiting at Paws Rescue UK 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 Winter, answered.

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