More about Sylvester
Previously a stray, Sylvester has wasted no time settling into our Cattery and charming everyone who passes by. Confident, affectionate and full of character!
Sylvester has a wonderfully affectionate side. He loves fuss and attention and is more than happy to soak up all the affection on offer, often purring loudly to show just how content he is. He also enjoys spending time playing with his favourite string toy, so his new owners can look forward to plenty of fun and games with Sylvester.
Sylvester will need outdoor access to his own garden in his new home and should have a cat flap so he can come and go as he pleases if his new owners are out at work during the day.
If you have already completed our online rehoming form and would like to know more about Sylvester, you can email our rehoming team at bowcat.rehomers@battersea.org.uk to register your interest.
We ask all prospective adopters to complete our online form before we can discuss an individual animal. If you haven’t filled in the form yet, you can find details on how to do so here: https://www.battersea.org.uk/rehoming.
Please be aware that we receive a high volume of interest in rehoming our animals, so we can only contact those whose circumstances are a suitable match for the cat they have enquired about.
Rehoming FAQs
Here at Battersea, we assess all of our cats individually and create a rehoming profile for them. To ensure successful matches between people and pets, we use a combination of extensive rehoming experience, our staff expertise and the information you provided in your rehoming form. Once you complete your online registration, you’ll receive a confirmation email to let you know that we have everything we need to begin our matchmaking process, as well as the next steps of the process.
This may not always be the cat you thought it would be, which is why we ask that you see the registration form as a way of registering your interest in rehoming, not an application for a specific animal. We’re experts in making sure we find the right home for our cats and the right cat for your home.

Once you’ve completed our online registration form, we’ll handle the rest. Your rehoming registration will be open for up to three months, and in that time, we’ll do our very best to try and match you with a pet that best suits you and your lifestyle. It can take a bit of time for us to try and match you with a pet – but we promise it’s time well spent. We’re committed to getting to know every animal at our centres before finding a match that works for our cats and for you wherever possible.
If we are not able to match you with a cat within three months, we’ll let you know and offer guidance to help you continue your search beyond Battersea.

Our rehoming fee is £100 for cats (over six months), £130 for kittens (under six months) or £180 for a pair of cats and £225 for a pair of kittens. We accept cash or debit/credit card as payment (we are unable to accept cheques). The fees include a full vet and behaviour assessment, microchipping, flea and worm treatment, neutering, initial vaccinations, starter pack of food and four weeks of free Petplan insurance. Each cat also goes to their new home with their own blankets and a favourite toy, such as a knitted mouse.
It’s important to consider not just the initial cost of getting a cat or kitten, but the regular cost of insurance, food, equipment and fees at your local veterinary centre so that you are fully prepared for the financial implications of owning a cat.
