Hilppa, Lahti

Mixed Breed · Female

As October 2026 approaches, it will be a year since Hilppa Hildur's time at the shelter began. Hilpukka is a very big personality, big in more ways than one, with very different sides. First of all, Hilppa is a very cautious girl, perhaps no longer timid. Hilppa got along well with the half-year-old kittens, but when the 16-week stretch of tolerating the little kittens began after May, Hilpah would not have been less interested, curse it. During this time, Hilppa retreated from activities. She has gotten along with the shelter's own cats, best of all with Viiru-Herra. Now in September, the shelter moved, and by golly, how Hilpah woke up to activity again!!! Nighttime games with balloons started with a bounce, as well as frolicking in empty cardboard boxes, that's the taste of life and noise. Viiru-Herra and Hilpah engage in nesting, and with the female housemate, you can chat about the news a bit. So Hilpah is looking for a home as a companion for an adult calm cat, or a ball-playing partner. Hilpah has not played with another cat, but is not aggressive either. She gets along with other cats, as long as they are not kittens. However, she can handle a single cat's battery. And very self-confident, Hilpah is not exactly a beginner's type. She masters both chirping and bellowing. Please read Kisu ry's instructions for cat adopters before contacting and answer the interview questions made to cat adopters in the first message.

Lokakuun 2026 lähestyessä alkaa tulla vuosi täyteen Hilppa Hildurin ensikotiaikaa. Hilpukka on erittäin iso persoona, iso muutoinkin, jolla on hyvin erilaisia puolia. Ensinnäkin Hilppa on hyvin varautunut tyttö, ei ehkä niinkään enää arka. Hilppa tuli noin puoli vuotisten pentujen kanssa hyvin toimeen, mutta kun vapun jälkeen alkoi 16 viikon pätkä pikkupentujen sietämistä, Hilppaa ei olisi vähempää kiinnostanut, hyi olkoon. Tänä aikana Hilppa peräti vetäytyi aktiviteeteista. Hän on tullut toimeen ensikodin omien kissojen kanssa, parhaiten Viiru-Herraa on kaveerannut. Nyt syyskuussa ensikoti muutti, ja voi vaude, miten Hilppa heräsi uudestaan toimintaan!!! Öiset leikit kilipallojen kanssa käynnistyivät ponnella, sekä tyhjissä pahvilaatikoissa temuaminen, siinä on elämän makua ja meteliä. Viiru-herran kanssa Hilppa harrastaa vuoropesua, ja huushollin naishuumannin kanssa voi vähän huudella kuulumisia. Eli Hilppa etsii kotia aikuisen rauhallisen kissan kaverina, tai kilipallon kumppanina. Hilppa ei ole leikkinyt toisen kissan kanssa, mutta ei ole myöskään aggressiivinen. Tulee toimeen muiden kissojen kanssa, kunhan eivät ole pikkupentuja. Tosin pärjää itsellisen kissan akun. Ja hyvin itsevarmana Hilppa ei ole ihan aloittelijan typy. Hän hallitsee sekä kujertelun että karjahdukset. Luethan Kisu ry:n ohjeet kissanottajalle ennen yhteydenottoa ja vastaat jo ensimmäisessä viestissä kissanottajille tehtyihin haastattelukysymyksiin.

Frequently asked

Adopting Hilppa, Lahti, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Hilppa, Lahti?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Kissojensuojelu.fi handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Hilppa, Lahti on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Hilppa, Lahti if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Kissojensuojelu.fi 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Hilppa, Lahti 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 Hilppa, Lahti 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 Kissojensuojelu.fi early rather than rehoming privately; they know Hilppa, Lahti 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.
