Adopt Karin och Aggie

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 5 years

Last updated: 10-25-20 These two ladies have been in a foster home for a long time but are now with us at the cat shelter. Aggie originally lived as a shy and wild cat on a dump, she is now a tamed cat but still a bit shy at first. Unfortunately, she has become very round and sedentary. She needs more movement and stimulation to feel good and lose weight; she does best on a limited diet without dry food. Aggie likes to purr and affectionately chirp at us when we talk to her. Karin came to us when she was taken care of by the county administrative board from a cat collector, she is a shy girl who appreciates the company of other cats but is not very fond of close proximity from us two-legged beings. If you have a treat bag, she will not say no. The ladies seem to be getting along well and we would like them to continue like that. They are both around 4-5 years old, make good indoor cats but need access to a patio/enclosed balcony or controlled outdoor time in the future.

Sidan senast uppdaterad: 25-10-20 Dessa två damer har bott länge i ett jourhem men är nu hos oss på katthemmet. Aggie levde från början som skygg och förvildad på en soptipp, hon är numera tamkatt men lite blyg till en början. Hon har tyvärr blivit väldigt rund och stillasittandes. Hon behöver mer rörelse och aktivering för att må bra och tappa vikt, hon mår bäst på en begränsad kost utan torrfoder. Aggie gillar att gosa och kvittrar kärleksfullt mot oss när man jollrar till henne. Karin kom till oss då hon omhändertogs av länsstyrelsen hos en kattsamlare, hon är en blyg tjej som uppskattar sällskap av andra katter men är inte så förtjust i närhet från oss tvåbenta. Har man en godispåse med sig så tackar hon inte nej. Damerna verkar trivas bra ihop och vi ser gärna att de får fortsätta så. De är båda omk 4-5 år gamla funkar som innekatter men behöver tillgång till rastgård/innätad balkong eller kontrollerad utevistelse på sikt.

About Karin och Aggie

What life with Karin och Aggie looks like

Karin och Aggie is a 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 Karin och Aggie, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Karin och Aggie?
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 Karin och Aggie on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Karin och Aggie 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 Karin och Aggie 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 Karin och Aggie 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 Karin och Aggie 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.
