Älvis

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Before Älvis came to the cat shelter, he lived on a farm where there were many cats. When he came to the cat shelter, he had not had any direct human contact. Älvis is still quite cautious and needs time to trust us humans. We are looking for a home for Älvis where people are ready to give him the time he needs, to continue his progress in trusting us humans.

Innan Älvis kom till katthemmet bodde han på en gård där det fanns flertalet katter. När han kom till katthemmet hade han inte haft något direkt mänsklig kontakt. Älvis är än så länge ganska försiktig av sig och behöver tid på sig att lita på oss människor. Vi söker ett hem till Älvis där man är beredd på att ge honom den tid han behöver, för att fortsätta sina framsteg i att lita på oss människor. Han är född 2021 Försäkringsfaddrar är Jesper och Marcus samt Katten Cornelia

About Älvis

What life with Älvis looks like

Älvis is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Södertälje Katthem in Sweden.

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 Sweden

Swedish shelters require an adoption application and home visit. Animals are chipped, vaccinated, and sterilized. Cross-border placements within the EU use the standard pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Älvis, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Älvis?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Södertälje Katthem handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Älvis on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Älvis if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Södertälje Katthem 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Älvis 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 Älvis 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 Södertälje Katthem early rather than rehoming privately; they know Älvis 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 (SV). 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.
