Adopt Benya (Беня)

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

Sweet, chubby and cheeky cat Benya (about a year old) urgently needs loving hands! The cat was thrown out on the street. He had a parasite collar. We placed ads, but the owners never appeared. Benya is temporarily staying with us. If the cat doesn't like anyone in 1-2 weeks, he will be back on the street... Benya is affectionate and talkative, loves to play and lie on the couch, is the first to run and greet a person. Loves to eat from hands. Likes being petted and hugged. Benya is a cute character like from a fairy tale. He completely does not tolerate the company of other cats. He always shows dominance. But with people, Benya is just a warm, affectionate sun! Short fur, tabby pattern (stripes), in gray and cream tones. Green eyes. Very smart look, with sparkles. Very clean, trained on a litter box with clumping material.

Милый, толстенький и щекастый котик-мурчун Беня (около года) СРОЧНО в любящие ручки! Котика выкинули на улицу. Он был в ошейнике от паразитов. Мы писали объявления, но хозяева так и не объявились. Беня на временной передержке. Если за 1-2 недели котик никому не понравится, то ему светит снова улица... Беня ласковый и разговорчивый котик, любит играться и валяться на диване, первым бежит встречать человека. Любит кушать с рук. Любит, когда его гладят, обнимают. Беня-симпатяга похож на сказочного персонажа. Совершенно не переносит общество других кошек. Всех строит, доминирует. А вот с людьми Бенька просто солнышко ласковое! Шерсть короткая, окрас табби (полосочки), в серых и кремовых тонах. Глазки зелёные. Взгляд очень умный, с искорками . Очень чистоплотен, приучен к лотку с наполнителем. Кушает сухой корм Брит для стерилизованных котов с чувствительным пищеварением От паразитов обработан

About Benya (Беня)

What life with Benya (Беня) looks like

Benya (Беня) is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Happy Paw Dnipro in Ukraine.

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 Ukraine

The shelter typically completes the animal's vaccinations, microchipping, and pet passport before adoption. Specific fees and process details vary by shelter and country — confirm directly via the contact details in the sidebar.

Frequently asked

Adopting Benya (Беня), answered.

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