Jarilo

Birman · Male

The 6-year-old Siamese-Burmese cat is very affectionate and curious, just like his brother. He is looking for a home with his brother where they can experience many exciting things as indoor cats. Jarilo thoroughly enjoys petting sessions and also likes to chat away. Orion seems to give him security when it comes to discovering new worlds. Visit / adopt cat History of the group Sternenbrüder (Star Brothers) Orion and Jarilo are two lovable brothers who are looking for a new home together due to changed circumstances - after their partner separated and their previous owner moved. The two are six years old, very affectionate, calm and people-oriented. They enjoy being close to their humans and are always where life is happening. As a well-rehearsed team, they get along wonderfully and therefore want to stay together. Orion and Jarilo have spent their previous lives as indoor cats. Therefore, we wish for them again a loving home as indoor cats - ideally with an enclosed balcony where they can safely enjoy the fresh air and sunshine.

Der 6-jährige Kater mit Siam-Birma-Blut ist wie auch sein Bruder sehr zutraulich und neugierig. Er sucht mit seinem Bruder ein Zuhause wo sie viel Spannendes erleben dürfen als Wohnungskatzen. Jarilo geniesst Streicheleinheiten in vollen Zügen und 'plaudert' auch gerne mal vor sich hin. Orion scheint ihm Sicherheit zu geben, wenn es darum geht, neue Welten zu entdecken. Katze besuchen / adoptieren Geschichte der Gruppe Sternenbrüder Orion und Jarilo sind zwei liebenswerte Brüder, die aufgrund veränderter Lebensumstände – nach der Trennung vom Partner und Umzug ihrer bisherigen Besitzerin – gemeinsam ein neues Zuhause suchen. Die beiden sind sechs Jahre alt, sehr zutraulich, ruhig und menschenbezogen. Sie genießen die Nähe ihrer Menschen und sind am liebsten dort, wo das Leben stattfindet. Als eingespieltes Team verstehen sie sich wunderbar und möchten deshalb unbedingt zusammenbleiben. Ihr bisheriges Leben haben Orion und Jarilo als Wohnungskatzen verbracht. Deshalb wünschen wir uns für sie erneut ein liebevolles Zuhause als Wohnungskatzen – idealerweise mit einem eingenetzten Balkon, auf dem sie sicher die frische Luft und die Sonne genießen können.

About Jarilo

What life with Jarilo looks like

Jarilo is a adult birman cat waiting at Katzenhaus-Freunde in Zürich region.

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 Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.

Frequently asked

Adopting Jarilo, answered.

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