Все його життя в клітці і в нього майже немає шансу на порятунок. Котика звати Дарлін. Він дуже ніжний і хороший кото-хлопчик. Неймовірний колір шубки схожий на латте) Кастрований, вакцинований і чудово знає лоточок. Так склалася його доля, що він — носій вірусу лейкозу. Він може бути один у господарів, або з котиками, які теж носії цього вірусу. Людям і собачкам цей вірус не передається. Але це не робить його менш гідним любові, дому чи щастя. Він так само тягнеться до людини, любить ласку, муркоче від ніжності і мріє про свій дім. Про місце, де його приймуть таким, яким він є, і просто любитимуть. Такі котики особливо потребують тепла й турботи. І водночас вони вміють любити так щиро, що торкаються самого серця. Дарлін дуже чекає на людину, яка не злякається його особливості, а побачить у ньому прекрасного котика, який заслуговує на щасливе життя Життя в клітці його повільно знищує, бо для нього дуже важливо дарувати свою любов і ласку людині. Допоможіть йому не зав’янути від нездійснених мрій і моральних потреб в любові господарів за гратами клітки.

About Darlin (Дарлін)

What life with Darlin (Дарлін) looks like

Darlin (Дарлін) is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Happy Paw Kyiv in Ukraine.

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 Darlin (Дарлін), answered.

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