How do I contact the shelter about Kuki?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Zavetišče Ljubljana handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Kuki on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Kuki if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Zavetišče Ljubljana 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 Kuki already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?

Most dogs 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 Kuki 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 Zavetišče Ljubljana early rather than rehoming privately; they know Kuki 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 (SL). 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.

Kuki

Mixed Breed Cat · Male · Adult · 5 years

Date of birth: 23. 10. 2020 Weight: Weighs about 25 kg and has the characteristics of an American Staffordshire Terrier. Description: Kuki is a confident and determined dog who knows what he wants. Respect must be earned through appropriate interaction. He likes to test boundaries and demands attention. With the right handler, he is obedient, trainable and willing to cooperate. Indoors, he is calm and used to a doghouse. Outside, he is playful and lively. On a leash, with the right handler, he walks nicely. He loves playing with toys and is always hungry. He arrived at the animal shelter very thin and can't seem to eat enough. He is quick to learn for improvements. He would chase cats, and generally gets along with other dogs. Still, he is not suitable for living with them. He has been waiting for a home since November 1, 2022. Not suitable for families with children! Looking for a home where he will be the only pet and will live in a household with adults.

Datum rojstva: 23. 10. 2020 Teža: Tehta okoli 25 kg in ima pasemske značilnosti ameriškega staffordshirskega terierja. Opis: Kuki je samozavesten in odločen pes, ki ve kaj hoče. Njegovo spoštovanje si je s primernim odnosom potrebno pridobiti. Rad preizkuša meje in izsiljuje za pozornost. Ob primernem vodniku je vodljiv, učljiv in rad sodeluje. Notri je umirjen in je navajen na hišni boks. Zunaj pa je razigran in živahen. Na povodcu ob primernem vodniku lepo hodi. Obožuje igro z igračami in je vedno lačen. V zavetišče je prišel presuh in se kar ne more nasititi. Za priboljške se je pripravljen hitro učiti. Mačke bi preganjal, z drugimi psi pa se večinoma dobro razume. Vseeno ni primeren za bivanje z njimi. Na primeren dom čaka že od 1. novembra 2022. Ni primeren za družine z otroki! Išče dom kjer bo edini ljubljenček in bo v gospodinjstvu živel z odraslimi osebami.

About Kuki

What life with Kuki looks like

Kuki is a large adult mixed breed cat dog waiting at Zavetišče Ljubljana in Ljubljana.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

Note from the shelter: Must be only pet in household, not suitable for families with children

🇸🇮Adopting from Slovenia

Slovenian shelters follow EU pet passport requirements rigorously and coordinate with Italian, Austrian, and German rescue partners. Animals are fully vetted before leaving.
