Džambo

Male · Young · 3 years

Age (approximate): 3 years (06.2023). Microchip number: 900263008169534; Breed: mixed breed; country of origin: Latvia. Health status: no health issues detected. Additional information: long-haired, vaccinated, spayed. Jumbo is a regally looking tomcat—long-haired, handsome, and with a gaze that makes you wonder if he might just be plotting to take over the world. Right now, this young gentleman is still pondering life’s twists and turns a bit and hasn’t yet fully unlocked his full range of talents. Still, we’re confident that in the right home, both he and his coat will blossom into new colors. Jumbo’s favorite pastime is sitting on the windowsill and watching everything going on around him. Local birds, visitors, and changes in the weather—all are carefully observed and analyzed. Jumbo is friendly and affectionate toward people, yet—as befits a gentleman of distinction—he requires newcomers to pass a little test first: they need to earn his trust and receive his friendly approval. If your home could use a touch of fluffy elegance and a cat who’ll accept your love with dignity, Jumbo would be delighted to meet you. Information posted on 07.2026.

Vecums (aptuvenais): 3 gadi (06.2023.). MČ - 900263008169534; ). Bezšķirnes; izcelsmes valsts - Latvija. Veselības stāvoklis - veselības problēmas nav novērotas. Cita informācija: garspalvains, vakcinēts, sterilizēts. Džambo ir aristokrātiska izskata runčuks - garspalvains, glīts un ar skatienu, kas liek aizdomāties, vai viņš gadījumā neplāno pārņemt pasauli. Šobrīd jaunskungs vēl nedaudz apdomā dzīves līkločus un nav paspējis pilnībā atvērt savu talantu krātuvi. Mēs gan esam pārliecināti, ka īstajās mājās viņš un viņa kažociņš uzplauks jaunās krāsās. Džambo iecienītākā nodarbe ir sēdēt uz palodzes un vērot apkārt notiekošo. Vietējie putni, apmeklētāji un laikapstākļu pārmaiņas – viss tiek rūpīgi uzraudzīts un analizēts. Pret cilvēkiem Džambo ir draudzīgs un mīļš, tomēr kā jau cienījamam kungam pienākas, svešiniekiem sākumā jāiziet neliela pārbaude – jāsaņem caurlaide un draudzības akcepts. Ja Tavās mājās pietrūkst mazliet pūkainas elegances un kaķa, kurš ar cieņu pieņems Tavu mīlestību, Džambo labprāt iepazītos. Informācija ievietota 07.2026.

About Džambo

What life with Džambo looks like

Džambo is a young adult cat waiting at Jēkabpils Dzīvnieku Patversme in Latvia.

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 Latvia

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 Džambo, answered.

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