Adopt Boriska (Бориска)

Mixed Breed · Female

Our Boriska (Бориска) herself climbed onto the stage and began to pose. Such progress! Boriska (Бориска) arrived with us as a tiny kitten, it was a fight for life, not just health. A little ball with eyes that had sunk in, skin and bones, fur that clung. We didn't even look at the floor, deciding that this was a kitten. We found out that she was much older when we gathered to spay her. And so, Boris became Boris. As a result, we have a blind but alive kitten. We didn't look for a home for her for a long time, but now we're starting to try. Boriska (Бориска) is a young kitten, an estimated date of birth is April 5, 2018. Coat color – tricolor. Blind, she orients herself well in a familiar space. Vaccinated, spayed, with a veterinary passport. House-trained, eats quality dry pet food.

Наша Бориска сама прийшла на подіум і стала позувати. Ось такий прогрес! Бориска поступила до нас крихітним котеням, була боротьба за життя, а не тільки за здоров’я. Грудочка з очима, що погнили, шкіра і кістки, шерсть, що звалялася. Ми навіть на пол не дивилися, вирішили що це котик. Дізналися, що це кішечка набагато пізніша, коли зібралися стерилізувати. Так і став Борька Борискою) В результаті, ми маємо сліпу, але живу кішечку. Ми довго не шукали їй будинок, але тепер починаємо пробувати. Бориска – молода кішечка, умовна дата народження 5 квітня 2018 року. Забарвлення – арлекін. Сліпа, орієнтується в знайомому просторі прекрасно. Вакцинована, стерилізована, з ветеринарним паспортом. До лотка привчена, їсть якісний сухий корм. Надаємо допомогу фелінолога/зоопсихолога та ветеринара.

About Boriska (Бориска)

What life with Boriska (Бориска) looks like

Boriska (Бориска) is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Dobri Ruky in Kyiv.

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 Boriska (Бориска), answered.

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