Adopt Capri

Female · Puppy · 10 months

The story of Capri is actually the story of the four kittens - Capri, Sophie, Indie and Teddy. The four had many difficulties on their way so far. They overcame hunger and diseases, but they survived thanks to the many caring hands they passed through. At first, there were five kittens. They were found by chance - thrown into a trash can. A passerby had mercy and immediately took them in. One of them did not survive the time spent outside without care - probably a few days. The remaining ones could not easily adapt to this big change. The four surviving kittens came to the clinic of the Four Paws Foundation for examination just in time. Each of them weighed only 70 grams, almost half of what was expected. Despite being warmed and fed, they weakened every day. The following few weeks were critical for them - their feeding schedule had to be changed, they had to be warmed and receive enough fluids and vitamins. This period of starvation delayed their development and hindered them from eating and growing normally. A prolonged treatment was necessary. But finally the kittens fought for their lives, now healthy and growing normally. Capri was named so because of her demanding temperament and at first she was the hardest to feed. Now that she has grown up, she is a real lady who knows exactly what she likes. Her favorite activity is to gather the whole family to cuddle and groom. Capri is the main initiator of this important activity and does not stop until everyone is completely clean. During the rest of the time, she likes to lounge around, until a toy catches her attention. Then she starts to examine it. This is very interesting and attracts her brother Teddy. He joins her and they start the big games. Capri loves her people and wants them to join her activities. When she wants their attention, she goes to them and starts to talk to them kindly, because she knows that a good word opens every door.

Историята на Капри е всъщност историята на четирите котенца – Капри, Софи, Инди и Теди. Четиримата имаха много премеждия по пътя си дотук. Преодоляха глад и болести, но оцеляха благодарение на многото грижовни ръце, през които минаха. В началото котенцата били пет. Случайно били намерени - изхвърлени в кофа за боклук. Един минувач се смилил и веднага ги прибрал. Едно от тях не оцеляло времето, прекарано навън без грижи – вероятно няколко дни. А останалите не можели да свикнат лесно с тази голяма промяна. Четирите оцелели писанчета дошли в клиниката на фондация ЧЕТИРИ ЛАПИ за преглед тъкмо навреме. Всяко едно от тях тежало едва 70 грама, почти наполовина на очакваното. Въпреки че били топлени и хранени, те отслабвали всеки ден. Следващите няколко седмици били критични за тях – трябвало да се промени схемата им на хранене, да бъдат затоплени и да получат достатъчно количество течности и витамини. Този период на глад забавил развитието им и пречел да се хранят и растат нормално. Наложило се продължително лечение. Но накрая котенцата се преборили за живота си, вече здрави и растящи нормално. Капри е кръстена така поради взискателния си характер и в началото се хранила най-трудно. Вече пораснала тя е една истинска госпожица, която знае точно какво харесва. Най-любимото ѝ занимание е да се събира с цялото семейство, за да се гушкат и да се чистят. Капри е основният инициатор на тази важна дейност и не спира докато всички не са напълно почистени. През останалото време тя обича да се излежава, докато някоя играчка не привлече вниманието ѝ. Тогава тя започва да я изучава. Това е много интересно и привлича брат ѝ Теди. Той се присъединява към нея и започват големите игри. Капри обича и своите хора и иска те да се включват в нейните начинания. Когато иска тяхното внимание тя отива при тях и започва мило да им говори, защото знае, че добрата дума отваря всяка врата.

About Capri

What life with Capri looks like

Capri is a small puppy/kitten dog waiting at Four Paws Bulgaria (ЧЕТИРИ ЛАПИ) in Sofia.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

Note from the shelter: Required intensive medical care as kitten due to malnutrition and developmental delays

🇧🇬Adopting from Bulgaria

Bulgarian shelters typically include full vet workup, sterilization, and passport. Many coordinate with EU rescue partners for direct transport to adopter cities in Germany, Netherlands, and Austria.

Frequently asked

Adopting Capri, answered.

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