Chanse

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

"Hi! My name is Chanse 🐾 I am a calm, affectionate and loyal boy who has been through more than most. When I was caught in March, I was completely exhausted. I had been outside for a long time, blind in one eye, thin as a stick and very skeptical of people. I hissed and growled to keep people away - I had simply lost faith that people could be kind. But guess what? It's starting to change! Now I have a fantastic soft fur (just look at my tail - it's gotten a new life! 😸), and I love getting affection and closeness. Every morning I run to meet my foster mother, I'm like a tractor and I happily lie on her lap for a good rest. I've become both safer and more playful - and I follow her like a little shadow. My favorite food? Raw food and wet food - NAM! (Dry food you can just forget.) I'm housebroken, use the litter box nicely and have started to understand what it's like to live safely and comfortably indoors. Still, I would like to have safe outdoor opportunities in the future. I'm still a bit cautious with strangers and it happens that I hiss if I don't feel safe. I also sometimes chase other cats, but my foster mother has faith that it will settle down with time and safety. And with the dog in the house it's a bit like "love-hate": first I spit at him, then I sleep next to him. A bit of drama is probably allowed, right? My dream home? I'm looking for someone who understands me. Someone with experience with cats, who understands that I need time, safety and predictability. I'd rather not live with small children - I can bite in some situations, so I'm looking for adult cat-savvy owners who can set boundaries that I understand, just like my foster mother has done. It works well. And other animals? It depends who they are - with the right introduction, a lot can work out. But one thing is certain: if I get the right family, I have lots of love to give. I've come a long way already, and I'm very ready to take the next step - my home. Maybe it's with you?"

«Hei! Jeg heter Chanse 🐾 Jeg er en staselig, kosete og lojal gutt som har vært gjennom mer enn de fleste. Da jeg ble fanget inn i mars, var jeg helt utslitt. Jeg hadde gått ute lenge, var blind på det ene øyet, tynn som en strek og veldig skeptisk til mennesker. Jeg freste og knurret for å holde folk på avstand – jeg hadde rett og slett mistet troen på at folk kunne være snille. Men vet du hva? Det har begynt å snu! Nå har jeg en fantastisk silkemyk pels (bare se på halen min – den har fått nytt liv! 😸), og jeg elsker å få kos og nærhet. Hver morgen kommer jeg løpende for å møte fostermor, maler som en traktor og legger meg gjerne på fanget hennes for en god hvil. Jeg har blitt både tryggere og leken – og jeg følger etter henne som en liten skygge. Favorittmaten min? Råfôr og våtfôr – NAM! (Tørrfôr kan du bare glemme.) Jeg er renslig, bruker dokassa pent og har begynt å forstå hvordan det er å leve trygt og godt innendørs. Jeg ønsker meg likevel å ha trygge utemuligheter på sikt. Jeg er fortsatt litt forsiktig med fremmede og det hender at jeg freser hvis jeg ikke føler meg trygg. Jeg jager også andre katter av og til, men fostermor har troen på at det vil gi seg med tid og trygghet. Og med hunden her i huset er det litt sånn “elsk-hat”: først spytter jeg på ham, så sovner jeg ved siden av ham. Litt dramatikk må man vel få lov til? Drømmehjemmet mitt? Jeg leter etter noen som forstår meg. Noen som har erfaring med katter, og som skjønner at jeg trenger tid, trygghet og forutsigbarhet. Jeg vil helst ikke bo med små barn – jeg kan bite i noen situasjoner, så jeg ønsker meg derfor voksne kattevandte eiere som kan sette grenser som jeg forstår, sånn som fostermor har gjort. Det funker fint. Og andre dyr? Det kommer an på hvem de er – med riktig introduksjon kan mye gå seg til. Men én ting er sikkert: får jeg den rette familien, så har jeg masse kjærlighet å gi. Jeg har allerede kommet langt, og jeg er så klar for å ta neste steg – hjemmet mitt. Kanskje det er hos deg? Purr og fres fra Chanse 💚 Chanse er kastrert, ID-merket med chip, vaksinert og har fått en full helsesjekk samt ormekur.

About Chanse

What life with Chanse looks like

Chanse is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Hjerte for Hjemløse Katter in Trollåsen.

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 Norway

Norwegian rescues require thorough background checks. Animals leave with a Nordic pet passport and full vetting. Norway is outside the EU so import rules differ slightly — TRACES applies.

Frequently asked

Adopting Chanse, answered.

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