Kuzya (Кузя)

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Kuzya survived the war, the cold, and pain... Now, this one-year-old White-striped cat desperately needs a home. Kuzya is neutered, vaccinated, and goes potty in the litter box perfectly. Kuzya was brought from the war. Among the cold and danger, he frostbitten his ears. Now they are special, and because of this, he looks a bit like a water buffalo. But most importantly—Kuzya is healthy and ready for a happy home life. He is such a gentle boy. Such a cat that needs a person by his side, warm hands, and a feeling of safety. Right now, Kuzya is sitting in a cage and waiting for the decision of his fate. And he is very scared. After everything he has survived, he just wants his life to finally turn for the better. To not be cold, not to be afraid, and not to feel lonely. His special ears tell a heavy story. But Kuzya's eyes are still full of hope. Hope that someone will notice him. Hope that he will be needed by someone. Please give Kuzya a home.

Кузя пережив війну, мороз і біль… Тепер йому дуже потрібен дім Біло-смугастому котику Кузі лише 1 рік. Він кастрований, вакцинований і відмінно ходить на лоточок. Кузю привезли з війни. Там, серед холоду і небезпеки, він обморозив вушка. Тепер вони особливі, і через це він трохи схожий на весловушку. Але найголовніше — Кузя здоровий і готовий до щасливого домашнього життя. Він дуже ніжний хлопчик. Такий котик, якому потрібна людина поруч, теплі руки і відчуття безпеки. Зараз Кузя сидить у клітці і чекає на вирішення своєї долі. І йому дуже страшно. Після всього, що він пережив, так хочеться, щоб у його житті нарешті сталося щось хороше. Щоб він більше не мерз, не боявся і не почувався самотнім. Його особливі вушка розповідають важку історію. Але очі Кузі досі сповнені надії. Надії, що його помітять. Що він стане комусь потрібним. Будь ласка, подаруйте Кузі дім. Нехай голод і холод залишаться в його минулому, а попереду буде тільки любов

About Kuzya (Кузя)

What life with Kuzya (Кузя) looks like

Kuzya (Кузя) is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Happy Paw Kyiv in Ukraine.

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 Ukraine

The shelter typically completes the animal's vaccinations, microchipping, and pet passport before adoption. Specific fees and process details vary by shelter and country — confirm directly via the contact details in the sidebar.

Frequently asked

Adopting Kuzya (Кузя), answered.

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