Filya (Філя)

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 7 years

Филя, 5 years old - is looking for his home! Филя is a cat who came to us after being hit by a car. He had a broken back, and because of this, his back legs stopped working. In these 5 years at the animal shelter, Филя has undergone two operations to amputate his legs, as they were hindering him from moving properly on his front paws. Despite all difficulties, Филя is completely normal, active and cheerful cat! He loves to play, uses the litter box and leads a normal cat life. Extremely affectionate, loves attention and will be a great friend for those who are looking for company. He does not require special care, can walk, run and play, just like any other cat, just without his back legs. If you are ready to give this incredible strong and gentle cat a new home, write to us! Филя is waiting for you!

Филя, 5 років — шукає свій дім! Филя — котик, який потрапив до нас після того, як його збила машина. У нього був перелом хребта, і через це відмовили задні лапки. За ці 5 років у притулку Филя переніс дві операції з ампутації лапок, оскільки вони заважали йому нормально рухатися на передніх лапках. Незважаючи на всі труднощі, Филя — абсолютно нормальний, активний та весняний котик! Він любить гратися, ходить на горшок і веде звичайне котяче життя. Мега ласкавий, обожнює увагу і буде чудовим другом для тих, хто шукає компанію. Він не потребує спеціального догляду, може ходити, бігати і гратися, як і будь-який інший котик, просто без задніх лапок. Якщо ви готові подарувати цьому неймовірно сильному та лагідному котику новий дім, пишіть нам! Филя чекає на вас!

About Filya (Філя)

What life with Filya (Філя) looks like

Filya (Філя) is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Happy Paw Dnipro 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 Filya (Філя), answered.

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