Adopt Giltsi ja Garoliina

Female

Gilti (brown and white) and Garoliina (black) are still shy young females. Although the girls seem to have a good attitude towards people with some caution, they have recently made progress in becoming more confident and shown curiosity towards people. Giltsi ja Garoliina need a calm and patient home that understands older cats. Not suitable for families with small children.

Read original (fi)

Yhteistä kotia etsivät Giltsi (ruskeavalkoinen) ja Garoliina (musta) ovat vielä ujoja nuoria neitejä. Vaikka ihmisiin on tyttöjen mielestä hyvä suhtautua pienellä varauksella, ovat he viime aikoina ottaneet edistysaskelia reipastumisen saralla ja osoittaneet uteliaisuutta ihmisiä kohtaan. Giltsi ja Garoliina tarvitsevat rauhallisen ja kärsivällisen kodin, jolta löytyy ymmärrystä arempia kissoja kohtaan. Ei pienten lasten perheeseen.

Frequently asked

Adopting Giltsi ja Garoliina, answered.

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