Himo

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

Sidan senast uppdaterad: 26-06-14 Himo kom till oss som omplaceringskatt då hans tidigare ägare inte hade råd med veterinärvård och ville avliva Himo pga hälta samt tyckte det var jobbigt att släppa ut och in honom varje dag. Vi hade tyvärr ingen ledig plats så Himo fick vänta i kö i några månader men tillslut blev det hans tur och ägaren överlät Himo till oss. Det syns tydligt att Himo har en gammal skada i höger framtass, detta är dock inget som hindrar honom att röra sig och hoppa tex. Han klöser på sina klösträd och hoppar snabbt upp på hyllor och klätterställningar. Troligtvis rör det sig om en ligamentskada som har fått självläka och viss hälta kommer nog alltid finnas kvar. Himo är väldigt tillgiven och gosig mot oss nu när han bott in sig på katthemmet men var till en början väldigt nervös och blyg. Han är van att få gå ut och söker ett hem i trygg miljö som kan erbjuda utevistelse under kontrollerade former. Himo är van att bo själv men på katthemmet har han fått träffa andra katter vilket gått bra, han är dock busig och vill leka vilket inte alla katter uppskattar. Himo är ca 2år och längtar verkligen ut, det är dock viktigt att han inte bor i något trafikerat område där han riskerar att inte hinna undan från bilar.

About Himo

What life with Himo looks like

Himo is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Avesta Katthem in Avesta.

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 Sweden

Swedish shelters require an adoption application and home visit. Animals are chipped, vaccinated, and sterilized. Cross-border placements within the EU use the standard pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Himo, answered.

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