Kaarna

Scottish Fold · Male

Soon to be weaned, by nature friendly, curious, and well-mannered Kaarna is looking for a new home. The shelter’s Kaarnan new home will welcome a young feline sibling – not just a new cat. We ask applicants to familiarize themselves with the Scottish fold breed before submitting an application. Scottish fold kittens have ear folds as a result of a genetic mutation, which also causes them to have loose and wobbly skin, ear deformities, and floppy ears. Scottish fold cats are not accepted into the Finnish Cat Society’s registry in Finland.

FI·Show original

Pian luovutusikäinen, luonteeltaan ystävällinen, utelias ja seurallinen Kaarna etsii uutta kotia. Leikkisän Kaarnan uudesta kodista tulee löytyä hänelle nuori kissakaveri – ei siis ainoaksi kissaksi. Pyydämme hakijoita perehtymään Scottish fold -rotuun ennen hakemuksen täyttämistä. Fold-kissan luppakorvat ovat seurausta geenimutaatiosta, joka aiheuttaa kissalle myös luusto- ja rusto-oireita, nivelrikkoa ja lisääntyviä kipuja. Suomessa Scottish fold -kissoja ei hyväksytä Suomen Kissaliitto ry:n rekisteriin.

About Kaarna

What life with Kaarna looks like

Kaarna is a adult scottish fold cat waiting at HESY in Helsinki.

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 Finland

Finnish shelters require a home visit and an adoption contract. Animals are vetted; the EU pet passport covers cross-border travel within the bloc.

Frequently asked

Adopting Kaarna, answered.

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