How do I contact the shelter about Bristol (Брістоль)?

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 Bristol (Брістоль) on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Bristol (Брістоль) 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 Bristol (Брістоль) 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 Bristol (Брістоль) 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 Bristol (Брістоль) 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.

Bristol (Брістоль)

Mixed Breed · Female

Kyiv and Kyiv Oblast! Looking for a family! Brystal – a British shorthair cat. She was found in the entrance of an apartment building, with a tattoo. We were sure she escaped from an apartment and we were going to find the owners very quickly. But, as always, we were wrong; no one is looking for her. And Brystal is getting more stressed by the day, barely eating, just like abandoned animals always do. They don’t understand why they were left… For what? And with this tattoo, in Ukraine, it means the animal is an outsider. Brystal is a gentle, quiet, and affectionate cat, and we very much wish to find her responsible owners. Her approximate date of birth is January 12, 2022. Coat color – turtle shell. She is vaccinated, spayed, and has a veterinary passport. She is house-trained and eats quality pet food.
