Fenris

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

Fenris is a friendly and calm giant with 11 kg of love to give. He would thrive best with a single person or someone with older children who have plenty of time to give him attention and daily grooming. He wants a home with good and safe outdoor opportunities. I have had a good home with an owner who loved me dearly, but unfortunately can no longer handle a cat of my size. There is a lot of fur to brush every day and tangles need to be clipped regularly, and I weigh 11 kg after all! I am incredibly kind and cuddly, and I would rather lie on top of, or at least next to you at night, and I would love to share your pillow with you. It is important for me to have access to everyone in the house at all times, and I therefore do not like closed doors. I am very fond of food, but I have a goal to lose a couple of pounds. I have met many other animals, and I am especially fond of rolling around and showing off to dogs. I would like to be friends with them, but I can be intimidating for small dogs. It is just a misunderstanding! I may also get along with other cats, but then it must be one who is as calm as me, and who is not too pushy. I lived with an active Bengal kitten that I did not particularly like. You may need to be a bit careful when you let me out again, because I have sometimes brought in both live mice and small birds to play with. I have also taken some hedgehogs, but I became friends with the hedgehog that lived in our garden.

Fenris er en vennlig og rolig kjempe med hele 11 kg. kjærlighet å gi. Han vil trives best hos en enslig person eller noen med eldre barn som har masse tid til å gi ham oppmerksomhet og daglig pelsstell. Han ønsker et hjem med gode og trygge utemuligheter. Jeg har hatt et godt hjem med en eier som har elsket meg høyt, men som dessverre ikke klarer å håndtere en katt på min størrelse lenger. Det er mye pels å børste hver dag og floker må klippes jevnlig, og jeg veier jo tross alt 11 kg! Jeg er utrolig snill og kosete, og jeg vil helst ligge oppå, eller i alle fall inntil deg om natten, og jeg deler gjerne hodepute med deg. Det er viktig for meg å ha tilgang til alle i huset til enhver tid, og jeg liker derfor ikke stengte dører. Mat er jeg veldig glad i, men jeg har et mål om å gå ned ett par kilo. Jeg har møtt mange andre dyr, og er spesielt glad i å rulle rundt og vise meg frem for hunder. De vil jeg gjerne være venn med, men jeg kan være skremmende for små hunder. Det er bare en misforståelse! Jeg kan nok også gå overens med andre katter, men da må det være en som er like rolig som meg, og som ikke er altfor pågående. Jeg bodde med en aktiv bengalkattunge som jeg ikke likte særlig godt. Det kan hende du må passe litt på når du slipper meg inn igjen når jeg har vært ute, for jeg har noen ganger tatt med meg både levende mus og småfugler inn for å leke. Noen skjærer har jeg også tatt, men pinnsvinet som bodde i hagen vår ble jeg kompis med.

About Fenris

What life with Fenris looks like

Fenris is a small adult mixed breed cat waiting at Dyrebeskyttelsen Oslo in Oslo.

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 Norway

Norwegian rescues require thorough background checks. Animals leave with a Nordic pet passport and full vetting. Norway is outside the EU so import rules differ slightly — TRACES applies.

Frequently asked

Adopting Fenris, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Fenris?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Dyrebeskyttelsen Oslo handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Fenris on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Fenris if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Dyrebeskyttelsen Oslo 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 Fenris 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 Fenris 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 Dyrebeskyttelsen Oslo early rather than rehoming privately; they know Fenris 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 (NO). 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.
