How do I contact the shelter about Bofor?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Maukula ry handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Bofor on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Bofor if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Maukula ry 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 Bofor 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 Bofor 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 Maukula ry early rather than rehoming privately; they know Bofor 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 (FI). 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.

Adopt Bofor

Mixed Breed · Female

Bofor has been really hyper from the start and not very good at cat behavior. However, since being at our shelter, Bofor has started to mellow out a lot among other cats. Food smells good to Boforille, and now Bofor even dares to eat in front of people, watching the food being served from a distance first. Bofor still doesn't fully understand people above, as sometimes even crossing by a bit can be too stressful for the young male and he may cower or run off. Playful chases and fighting with other cats (especially spayees) are thrilling. Other cats also give Boforille courage and security. A cat friend can already be found in the home. If there's no cat friend waiting at home, Bofor could move to a new home together with another Maukulan cat. With a little time and space in the home, the true affection of Boforin kiss can be revealed in just the right home! Bofor is given to you vaccinated, microchipped, neutered, dewormed, and tested for FIV and FeLV. Bofor is not given as a single cat or allowed to roam freely. Would you consider a loving home for Boforille? Send us an email and tell us what kind of home you could offer him.

Bofor on ollut alkuun todella ujo eikä kovin piitannut kaksijalkaisten toiminnasta. Kuitenkin tiloilla ollessaan Bofor on alkanut reipastumaan paljon muiden kissojen seurassa. Ruoka maistuu Boforille hyvin ja nykyään Bofor uskaltaa syödä myös ihmisten seurassa ensin etäältä seuraten tätä ruoan esillelaittoa. Vielä Bofor ei ole täysin ymmärtänyt ihmisten päälle, sillä joskus vierestäkin ohikulkeminen voikin olla liian jännittävää nuorelle herralle ja uskaltaakin näyttää tassuaan tai juoksee pakoon. Huiskulelut sekä leikkiminen muiden kissojen (erityisesti pentujen) kanssa on mieluista. Toiset kissat antavat Boforille myös rohkeutta ja turvaa. Kodista voi jo löytyä kissakaveri. Jos kaveria ei ole valmiina odottamassa kotona, voi Bofor muuttaa uuteen kotiin yhdessä toisen Maukulan kissan kanssa. Omassa kodissa pienin askelin ja aikaa antaen, Boforin aran kissan kuoren alta paljastuu juuri se oikea kotikissa! Bofor luovutetaan rokotettuna, sirutettuna, leikattuna, madotettuna sekä FIV- ja FeLV-testattuna. Ei luovuteta ainoaksi kissaksi eikä vapaasti ulkoilevaksi. Kissan luovutusmaksu on 250 euroa.

About Bofor

What life with Bofor looks like

Bofor is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Maukula ry in Tampere.

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.
