Iris (Ірис)

Mixed Breed · Male · Kitten

Iris is still a very small kitten, but she already awaits a wonder... The white and brown kitten Iris is only 2 months old. She is so small that she easily fits in the palm of a hand. So delicate and vulnerable that her heart aches with just one glance at her. All Iris wants is to be needed by someone. To have her own home. Her own litter box. Her own bed. And her own person to love with her tiny feline heart. For now, she only waits. Waiting for someone to notice her among the dozens of other animals. Waiting for someone to fall in love with her little brown spots, inquisitive eyes, and childlike trust in people. Iris doesn't know what a real home is. She doesn't know what it's like to settle in safety, knowing that she is loved and will never be left. But she deserves to learn this. Don't let her childhood pass in waiting. Give Iris a chance to grow up happy, loved, and at home as a kitten. Perhaps this little white and brown sun-kissed boy is waiting for you.

Ірис ще зовсім малюк, але вже чекає на диво... Біло-рудому кошеняті Ірису всього 2 місяці. Він такий маленький, що легко поміщається на руках. Такий ніжний і беззахисний, що серце стискається від одного погляду на нього. Усе, чого хоче Ірис, — це бути комусь потрібним. Мати свій дім. Свою мисочку. Свою лежанку. І свою людину, яку можна любити всім маленьким кошачим сердечком. Поки що він лише чекає. Чекає, коли хтось помітить саме його серед десятків інших тваринок. Коли хтось закохається в його руденькі плямки, допитливі оченята і дитячу довіру до людей. Ірис ще не знає, що таке справжній дім. Не знає, як це — засинати в безпеці, знаючи, що тебе люблять і ніколи не покинуть. Але він дуже заслуговує це дізнатися. Не дайте його дитинству пройти в очікуванні. Подаруйте Ірису шанс рости щасливим, улюбленим і домашнім котиком. Можливо, саме на вас чекає цей маленький біло-рудий сонячний хлопчик.

About Iris (Ірис)

What life with Iris (Ірис) looks like

Iris (Ірис) is a puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Happy Paw Kyiv in Ukraine.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇺🇦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 Iris (Ірис), answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Iris (Ірис)?
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 Iris (Ірис) on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Iris (Ірис) 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 Iris (Ірис) 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 Iris (Ірис) 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 Iris (Ірис) 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.
