How do I contact the shelter about Dalida?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. HKK Kalmar handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Dalida on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Dalida if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — HKK Kalmar 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 Dalida 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 Dalida 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 HKK Kalmar early rather than rehoming privately; they know Dalida 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.

19 mars, 2024 Dalida och Luciano är två katter med en gemensam bakgrund. De kommer från ett koloniärende strax söder om Kalmar, där flera svarta katter har bosatt sig. Dalida är en försynt liten dam med en oerhört mjuk päls. Hon har långsamt kommit ur sitt skal och har nu börjat tycka om att bli kelad med av stödhemmet. Luciano är Dalidas trogne följeslagare och kommer också från samma koloniärende. Han är en vacker katt med en stolt hållning och en intensiv blick. Precis som Dalida är han försynt till sin natur men har hittat trygghet och tröst i sin vänskap med henne. Dalida och Luciano har nu kommit till en punkt i sina liv där de längtar efter ett permanent hem där de kan få den kärlek och omsorg de förtjänar. De har funnit en trygghet i varandra och vill därför flytta tillsammans till sitt nya hem. Det är viktigt att Dalida och Luciano hamnar i en miljö där de kan fortsätta att utvecklas och trivas. De behöver ett hem där de får den tid och tålamod som krävs för att de ska känna sig trygga och kunna öppna upp sig fullt ut. Eftersom de är försynta katter kommer de att behöva ägare som förstår deras behov och är villiga att ge dem den kärlek och omsorg de behöver. Om du är intresserad av att adoptera Dalida och Luciano är det viktigt att du förstår deras bakgrund och är beredd att ge dem den tid och omsorg de behöver. De är två katter som har gått igenom mycket och behöver nu hitta ett hem där de kan känna sig trygga och älskade. Kontakta gärna stödhemmet för att få mer information om Dalida och Luciano och för att boka in en tid för att träffa dem. Det är viktigt att du får möjlighet att lära känna dem och se om det är en bra match för både dig och katterna. Genom att adoptera Dalida och Luciano ger du två försynta katter en chans till ett lyckligt och tryggt liv. Du blir deras räddning och ger dem möjlighet att blomstra och utvecklas i en kärleksfull miljö. Tänk på att det kan ta tid för dem att anpassa sig till sitt nya hem, men med tålamod och kärlek kommer de att bli fantastiska sällskapsdjur. Tack för att du överväger att ge Dalida och Luciano ett nytt hem. Tillsammans kan ni skapa en underbar framtid fylld av kärlek och glädje. Vill du veta mer om Dalida?

About Dalida

What life with Dalida looks like

Dalida is a small adult mixed breed cat waiting at HKK Kalmar 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.
