How do I contact the shelter about Gerda (Герда)?

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 Gerda (Герда) on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Gerda (Герда) 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 Gerda (Герда) 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 Gerda (Герда) 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 Gerda (Герда) 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.

Gerda (Герда)

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

Gerda. One ear is different from the others... But does that stop her from being loved? Gerda is 2 years old. She was brought from a war, where she experienced things she can't tell. Now Gerda has one ear that's different from the others. But this small difference doesn't spoil her incredible beauty. She has a luxurious plush coat - Gerda looks like a mix of a Siberian cat and a Turkish Angora. She's a real beauty, but her heart is even more beautiful. Gerda is spayed, vaccinated, and walks perfectly on the litter box. She is calm, gentle, very smart and good. But now instead of a cozy home - a cage, in which she suffers a lot. Maybe someone will see in her unusual ear not a flaw, but a feature that makes her unique? Gerda really needs a person who will love her not "despite", but exactly as she is. Give this incredible girl a home, where she will never be left alone again. ❤️

🤍 Герда. Одне вушко не таке, як у всіх… Але хіба це заважає любити? Герді 2 рочки. Її привезли з війни, де вона пережила те, про що не може розповісти. Тепер у Герди одне вушко не таке, як у інших котиків. Але ця маленька особливість зовсім не псує її неймовірної краси. У неї розкішна плюшева шубка — Герда схожа на метиса сибірської кішки та турецької ангори. Вона справжня красуня, але ще прекрасніше її серце. Герда стерилізована, вакцинована, бездоганно ходить на лоточок. Вона спокійна, ніжна, дуже розумна й хороша. Та зараз замість затишного дому — клітка, у якій вона дуже мучається. Можливо, хтось побачить у її незвичному вушку не недолік, а особливість, яка робить її неповторною? Герді дуже потрібна людина, яка полюбить її не «попри», а саме такою, якою вона є. Подаруйте цій неймовірній дівчинці дім, де її більше ніколи не залишать саму. ❤️
