Adopt Dafna (Дафна)

Mixed Breed · Unknown

By more promoting the kittens that are growing and constantly changing, we essentially deprive our adult cats of the chance to become household pets. Some have grown from kittens, some arrived very young, and now they wait with less and less hope. With proper care, a cat's lifespan can be 18-20 years. So, we feel very sorry for them. DaFne is one of them; she was about a year old or less, abandoned with a red collar, essentially she just needed to be spayed and continue to live happily. But what has been done, has been done. We were called to take in this angel of a cat, whose beauty was otherworldly. We spayed her, vaccinated her, and she did great with a litter box, eating quality dry pet food. At the moment, she is a year old. DaFne is self-sufficient, not pushy, but very good. Her downside is that when visitors come to the shelter, she will lie in the corner and not throw herself into their arms… Instead, she would have gone home long ago.

Больше рекламируя котят, которые растут и постоянно меняются, мы по сути лишаем шанса стать домашними наших взрослых котов, некоторые выросли из котят, некоторые поступили совсем молодыми и ожидают своего хозяина все с меньшей надеждой. А век у котов при нормальном уходе 18-20 лет. Так что , очень их жаль. Дафна одна из них, ее, годовалой или меньше, выбросили в красном ошейнике, по сути ее нужно было просто стерилизовать и продолжать жить счастливо. Но что сделано, то сделано. Нам позвонили, заметив эту кошечку неземной красоты, мы ее забрали, стерилизовали, вакцинировали, с лотком на отлично, ест качественный сухой корм. На данный момент ей года. Дафна самодостаточная, не навязчивая, но очень хорошая. Ее минус, что когда приезжают в приют, она будет лежать в сторонке, а не бросится на шею… А то она давно бы уехала бы домой.

About Dafna (Дафна)

What life with Dafna (Дафна) looks like

Dafna (Дафна) 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 Dafna (Дафна), answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Dafna (Дафна)?
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 Dafna (Дафна) on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Dafna (Дафна) 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 Dafna (Дафна) 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 Dafna (Дафна) 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 Dafna (Дафна) 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.
