How do I contact the shelter about Kuna?

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

Can I adopt Kuna if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — PESU — Pirkanmaan eläinsuojeluyhdistys 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 Kuna 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 Kuna 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 PESU — Pirkanmaan eläinsuojeluyhdistys early rather than rehoming privately; they know Kuna 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.

Kuna

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 5 years

AVI foster home ID: 24500557 We’re not accepting any more inquiries from Kuna for now—please check out other cats looking for homes; thank you! Meow, I’m Kuna! I was born around 2021, a neutered male cat, and I’m looking for my forever home. Although my expression sometimes looks a bit serious, don’t let that fool you—I’m actually super sweet, kind, and above all, playful. You’ll definitely win my heart with feather toys and food! Once I get to know someone, I love getting petted and enjoy their close company. I come from a shelter background, so people are still a bit intimidating to me. Sometimes I might greet a new situation with a little squeak—it’s more an old habit than a real opinion about you. My foster family believes that given time, I could even become a real lap cat—but I’m not ready to make any promises just yet. What matters most to me is that I can take things at my own pace. One thing, though, is absolutely certain: I need a feline companion. I’ve gotten along great with other cats in my foster home and really enjoy their company. A playful, young, gentle cat buddy—or maybe even several—would be perfect for me. As for children, I don’t have much experience yet. Calm, slightly older kids might be just right for me—as long as they understand that I need time to get comfortable. I can’t say much about little kids yet. I’m a confident, brave, and incredibly curious girl-cat named Haavetassu who knows her own worth. Meow and greetings! My name is Ilias, and I’m a sweet, people-loving gentleman cat born in 2017, looking for my forever home. Tukki and Taurus say hi! We’re looking for a calm, peaceful forever home together. The clinic provides care for dogs, cats, exotic animals, and wild animals. The clinic has new, modern, high-quality equipment for diagnostics—including various endoscopes (e.g., gastroscopes, fiberoscopes, rigid endoscopes...), dental X-rays...

AVIn pitopaikkatunnus: 24500557 Emme ota toistaiseksi enempää kyselyitä Kunasta, tutustuthan muihin kotia etsiviin, kiitos! Mijauu, minä olen Kuna! Olen syntynyt arviolta 2021, leikattu kollipoika, ja etsin omaa loppuelämän kotiani. Vaikka ilmeeni on joskus vähän vakava, älä anna sen hämätä, sillä olen oikeasti todella suloinen, kiltti ja ennen kaikkea leikkisä kaveri. Huiskaleluilla ja ruualla pääset takuulla sydämeeni! Kun opin tuntemaan ihmisen, rakastan rapsutuksia ja nautin niiden läheisyydestä. Minulla on populaatiotausta, joten ihmiset ovat vielä vähän jännittäviä. Saatan joskus tervehtiä uudessa tilanteessa pienellä sähähdyksellä – se on enemmän vanha tapa kuin oikea mielipide sinusta. Tilapäiskotini uskoo, että minusta voisi ajan kanssa kuoriutua ihan oikea sylikissakin, mutta lupauksia en vielä uskalla antaa. Minulle tärkeintä on, että saan edetä omaan tahtiin. Yksi asia on kuitenkin aivan varma: tarvitsen kissakaverin. Olen tullut tilapäiskodissa hienosti toimeen muiden kissojen kanssa, ja viihdyn niiden seurassa erinomaisesti. Minulle sopisi parhaiten leikkisä, nuori ja lempeä kissaystävä tai miksei useampikin. Lapsista minulla ei vielä ole kokemusta. Rauhalliset, vähän isommat lapset voisivat hyvinkin sopia minulle, kunhan ymmärtävät antaa minulle aikaa tutustua. Pienistä lapsista en osaa vielä sanoa. Olen oman arvoni tunteva, rohkea ja erittäin utelias, aivan vastustamaton tyttökissa nimeltä Haavetassu. Miau ja tervehdys! Nimeni on Ilias, ja olen v. 2017 syntynyt suloinen ja ihmisrakas kissaherra, joka etsii loppuelämän kotiaan. Tukki ja Taurus tässä moi! Etsimme yhteistä, rauhallista loppuelämän kotia. Klinikalla hoidetaan koirat, kissat , eksoottiset eläimet ja luonnonvaraiset eläimet. Klinikalla on uudet modernit laadukkaat laitteet diagnostiikkaa varten, mm. erilaiset tähystimet ( mm. gastroskooppi, fiberoskooppi, jäykkä tähystin ... ), hampaiden rtg...
