Adopt Chewie

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 3 years

Chewie is a female cat who loves Dreamis and anything else good to eat. Now, when she lives in a safe foster home, she meets people at the door and is very curious and sociable, even though she still doesn't allow petting or cuddles. She likes to peek through the window and watch birds and other things, and she is still scared of quick movements but comes back quickly. Chewie loves to play with everything and can even open doors. Chewie loves to lie down and relax on the windowsill or in the cat tree and often changes her sleeping spot. The previous foster home says: The transformation from the time she came to us has been enormous! Now Chewie is lively and curious. She comes right away when we take out toys and can play with us for long periods. She also enjoys playing by herself with her little ball, chasing it, rolling around and wrestling with the other cats. It's so fun to see her social skills emerging and how she shows that she wants to play together with us and our children. She sits by the door and waits if she is in the mood to play and wants us to join. If the ball has rolled under a piece of furniture, she shows that she wants help to get it out. Chewie is the one who wants some mental exercise and challenges. We sometimes end play sessions with a treasure hunt, where we place small pieces of cat treats around the room for the cats to find. It's very appreciated!

Chewie är en katttjej som älskar Dreamisar och allt annat gott att äta. Numera, när hon bor i ett tryggt jourhem, möter hon människor vid dörren och är väldigt nyfiken och sällskapssjuk, även om hon ännu inte tillåter klappar och kel. Hon gillar att spana i fönster och titta på fåglar och andra saker, och hon är fortfarande rädd för snabba rörelser men kommer snabbt fram igen. Chewie älskar att leka med allt och kan även öppna dörrar. Chewie älskar att ligga och sova avslappnat på fönsterbänken eller i katträdet och byter gärna sovplats ofta. Tidigare jourhem berättar: Förvandlingen från att hon kom till oss har varit enorm! Numera är Chewie pigg och nyfiken. Hon kommer fram på en gång när vi tar fram leksaker och kan leka med oss långa stunder. Hon leker gärna på egen hand också med sin lilla boll, jagar den, rullar runt och brottas med de andra katterna. Det är så roligt att se att hennes sociala förmågor kommer fram och att hon visar att hon vill leka tillsammans med oss och våra barn. Hon sätter sig vid dörren och väntar om hon är leksugen och vill att vi ska vara med och leka. Har bollen rullat under en möbel visar hon att hon vill ha hjälp att plocka fram den. Chewie är den som vill ha lite hjärngymnastik och utmaningar. Vi brukar ibland avsluta lekstunderna med en skattjakt, som går ut på att vi lagt ut små bitar av kattgodis runtom i rummet, som katterna får leta efter. Det är mycket uppskattat! Chewie och hennes allra bästa kompis Lurvas vill fortsätta bo tillsammans 💞

About Chewie

What life with Chewie looks like

Chewie is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Akutgruppen för Katter in Sweden.

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 Sweden

Swedish shelters require an adoption application and home visit. Animals are chipped, vaccinated, and sterilized. Cross-border placements within the EU use the standard pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Chewie, answered.

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