Benjamin

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 6 years

Benjamin is from Kinsta-kolonin, we caught in 7 of them during the autumn of -25.4 — 4 of the cats were very ill and unfortunately, a little boy cat passed away before we could help him. But thanks to our fantastic veterinarian, the others managed to pull through and were saved. Benjamin is the largest cat from the colony, a very handsome gentleman but cautious and prefers to take things slowly before he dares to venture out. He doesn’t like to be petted at first but is curious, likes treats, and enjoys sitting and observing his surroundings. We believe that Benjamin needs a calm home, not with small children but ideally with a kind cat friend who can help him feel safe. His new home needs to have a lot of patience and love to give for him to blossom into the good gentleman we believe he is inside. Apply for interest »

Benjamin är från Kinsta-kolonin, vi fångade in 7 st under hösten -25.4 av kissarna var mycket illa däran och tyvärr så somnade en liten kille in innan vi hann hjälpa honom men tack vare vår fantastiska veterinär så lyckades de andra piggna på sig och räddas. Benjamin är den största katten från kolonin, en mycket vacker herre men försiktig och vill gärna ha det lugnt omkring sig för att våga fram. Han låter sig inte bli klappad i första taget men är nyfiken, tycker om godsaker och tycker om att sitta och spana på sin omgivning. Vi tror att Benjamin behöver ett lugnt hem, ej med småbarn men gärna med en snäll kattkompis som hjälper honom känna trygghet. Hans nya husse/matte behöver ha mycket tålamod och kärlek att ge för att han ska våga blomma ut till den goa herre vi tror han innerst inne är. Anmäl intresse »

About Benjamin

What life with Benjamin looks like

Benjamin is a small adult mixed breed cat waiting at Djurskyddet Bill & Bull Söderhamn 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 Benjamin, answered.

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