How do I contact the shelter about Kylli ja Kisu?

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

Can I adopt Kylli ja Kisu if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Kissojen Katastrofiyhdistys KKY ry 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 Kylli ja Kisu 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 Kylli ja Kisu 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 Kissojen Katastrofiyhdistys KKY ry early rather than rehoming privately; they know Kylli ja Kisu and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.

Kylli ja Kisu

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 9 years

Kylli is about 13 years old, a brown-gray striped female cat. Kylli has an inquisitive but calm character. She likes to follow her friend Kisu's play. Kylli enjoys boxes and hiding places, but can also come in the morning to ask for pets from the bed side. Kylli does not yet particularly enjoy pets or join in play. Kylli has feline tooth resorption and therefore several teeth have been removed. Due to feline tooth resorption, Kylli should have annual dental check-ups to detect and treat any new changes in time. Based on blood tests taken during dental treatment, Kylli had slightly elevated liver value ALT. Although the value is not yet concerning, these changes should be monitored with a blood test control in 2-3 months. FIV/FELV test result is negative. Kisu is about 10 years old, a black and white male cat. Kisu is a real heartthrob. This boy loves attention and pets. Kisu welcomes strangers with an open mind. He is brave and social. Kisu takes good care of Kylli and includes her in playing. Kisu has had dental treatment where he had a tooth extracted, and no other issues were found during the dental check-up. Senior blood tests showed nothing abnormal. There are some skin-like bumps on the fur, which have not been harmful. FIV/FELV test result is negative. In their own home, Kylli and Kisu should have quiet hiding and resting places where they can retreat to their own peace. The best match for Kylli and Kisu would be a calm household with one or two people, as too much noise and commotion stress both of them. Kylli ja Kisu are unlikely to suit a family with children. Both cats are overweight and weight loss is important for both. Weight loss has already started in the first home, and the new home should commit to continuing the weight loss. It is important in their own home to take care of regular feeding times and appropriate portion sizes. Currently, both receive non-grain and sugar-free food in small portions several times a day. Part of the food is given through enrichment, for example, by hiding food so that they have to work a little to find their food. Would you like to offer Kisu and Kylli a forever home?

Kylli on n. 13v. ruskea-harmaa-raidallinen kissarouva. Kylli omaa uteliaan, mutta aran luonteen. Häntä kiinnostaa seurailla ystävänsä Kisun puuhia. Kylli viihtyy koloissa ja piiloissa, mutta voi hyvinkin aamuisin tulla hakemaan rapsutuksia sängyn vierestä. Kylli ei vielä erityisemmin nauti rapsutuksista tai lähde leikkeihin mukaan. Kyllillä on hammassyöpymäsairaus ja siksi Kylliltä on poistettu useampi hammas. Hammassyöpymän vuoksi Kylli tulisikin käyttää vuosittain hammastarkastuksessa, jotta mahdolliset uudet syöpymämuutokset voidaan havaita ja hoitaa ajoissa. Kyllillä havaittiin hammashoidon yhteydessä otettujen verikokeiden perusteella lievästi kohonnut maksa-arvo ALT. Vaikka arvo ei ole vielä huolestuttava, tulee näitä muutoksia vielä seurata verikoekontrollissa 2-3 kk kuluttua. Fiv/Felv-testin tulos negatiivinen. Kisu on n. 10v. mustavalkoinen kissaherra. Kisu on melkoinen sydänten valloittaja. Tämä poika rakastaa huomiota ja rapsutuksia. Kisu ottaa vieraatkin vastaan avoimin mielin. Hän on rohkea ja sosiaalinen kissa. Kylliä hän hoivaa uskollisesti ja saa mukaan leikkimään kanssaan. Kisu on käynyt hammashoidossa jossa Kisulta poistettiin hammaskiveä, eikä hammastarkastuksessa noussut esille muuta huomioitavaa. Senioriverikokeissa ei mitään normaalista poikkeavaa. Ihossa muutamia luomenkaltaisia näppyjä, jotka eivät ole olleet haitaksi. Fiv/Felv-testin tulos negatiivinen. Omassa kodissa Kyllille ja Kisulle tulisi järjestyä rauhallisia piilo- ja lepopaikkoja, jonne vetäytyä omaan rauhaan. Parhaiten Kyllille ja Kisulle sopisi rauhallinen yhden tai kahden hengen talous, sillä liika hälinä ja meininki stressaa kumpaakin. Kylli ja Kisu eivät todennäköisesti sovellu lapsiperheeseen. Molemmat kissat ovat ylipainoisia ja kummallakin painon pudotus olisi tärkeää. Painonpudotus on aloitettu jo ensikodissa ja oman kodin tulisi sitoutua painonpudotuksen jatkamiseen. Omassa kodissa olisi tärkeää huolehtia säännöllisistä ruoka-ajoista ja sopivista annoskoista. Tällä hetkellä molemmat saavat viljatonta ja sokeritonta ruokaa pienissä annoksissa useasti päivässä. Osan ruoasta kaksikko saa aktivoinnin kautta, esimerkiksi etsimällä piilotettua ruokaa, jotta he näkisivät ruoan syömisen eteen hieman vaivaa. Olisiko sinulla tarjota Kisulle ja Kyllille loppuelämän koti? Lähetä meille hakemus ja vastaa hakemuksessa huolellisesti ainakin näihin kysymyksiin:
