Female Mixed Breed Cat, 1 Year Old for Rehoming in N15 area
Accessories included£170
Tabatha is a mixed breed but predominantly british blue. She is 1 year and 8 months old. She is a lovely, playful, calm and affectionate young cat. I am rehoming because my mothers health has suddenly deteriorated and I need to fill the gaps when the carers are not there. Which means Tabatha is left alone in the house and gardens. She had a routine visit to the vet last week and she is in good health and up to date with all vaccinations. She is registered with Pet Plan until next summer and is registered with a Micro-chip company. She is a lovely, playful companion and I would like her to find a home with a responsible family who are prepared to pay for pet insurance and will register her with their vets.

Ready To Leave Now 🐾 Meet Soora, a beautiful TICA-registered Golden Chinchilla British Shorthair. Soora is a 3-year-old male who has been raised in our family home since he was a kitten.

Soora’s details: * TICA registered * 3 years old, male * Litter trained * Microchipped * Vaccinations up to date * Regular flea & worm treatment * Vet health checked * Parents health tested * Not neutered He will also come with a large selection of his belongings and equipment. £699 is the total price for Soora and everything below — no extra charge for the equipment: * Automatic stainless-steel water fountain (£40) * Fountain filters (£10) * Automatic litter box (£180) * Automatic feeder (£10, may not be working) * Cat bed (£10) * Weatherproof outdoor cat house (£50) * 3 stainless-steel bowls (£20) * 2 toilet mats (£10) * 20 rolls of litter/toilet bags (£15) * WiFi app for fountain & litter box (FREE) * Toothbrush & toothpaste (£5) * Laser light (FREE) * FRONTLINE Plus flea & tick treatment (£15/month) We want Soora to go to someone who understands that moving home can take time and is willing to let him settle in at his own pace.

Buying a British Shorthair in Luton
British Shorthair adverts in Luton come from local breeders, private owners and rescues, who are asked to complete a photo ID and live selfie check — look for the Verified badge. Typical prices sit around £500–£1,500, and demand in and around Luton means good litters are often reserved quickly — message the seller through PetTrader rather than paying a deposit off-site.
Check the seller's badges
Look for Verified, Licensed Breeder, KC Registered or Insured badges on Luton adverts — each one is confirmed by our team against uploaded paperwork.
View at the seller's home
Under Lucy's Law, kittens must be seen with their mother at the place they were bred. Never meet at a car park, station or motorway services near Luton.

Request the microchip number, vet records, worming and vaccination dates, plus the council licence number if the seller is a licensed breeder in Luton.
Set your travel radius
Use the distance filter with your postcode to see British Shorthair adverts within 10, 25 or 50 miles of Luton instead of scrolling the whole country.
Budget beyond the price
On top of the £500–£1,500 purchase price, plan for insurance, food, vaccinations and neutering — ongoing costs in Luton are usually higher than rural areas.

How much does a British Shorthair kitten cost in the UK?+
British Shorthair kittens usually sell for £500–£1,500 in the UK. Registered pedigree kittens from health-tested parents sit at the higher end of that range.
What should I check before buying a British Shorthair kitten?+
Kittens should be at least 8–12 weeks old, litter trained, wormed, and ideally vaccinated and microchipped. Ask to see the mother, and request GCCF or TICA registration papers where the kitten is sold as pedigree.
