Lilly

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 9 years

Lilly is a sweet little cat on 9 years old. In the foster home she goes by the nickname Lillemor. She is a very special cat, both in behavior and appearance. She has a black spot right under her stomach and on the left side of her body she has a "butterfly". Like most cats, she likes warmth and loves to lie in front of the heater on a blanket. She is a calm and cozy cat when she feels safe in her surroundings. The best thing she knows is to be scratched behind her ears and on her head. When she wants cuddles she comes to you and lies down in front of your legs. She would prefer you to sit down next to her on your knees to cuddle, and if she thinks she hasn't gotten enough cuddles, she will run after you and tap you on the foot with her paw. She is not very fond of being lifted, but we are working on that in the foster home. Although she is an adult cat, she still shows playfulness and activity now and then. We think Lilly will do best in a home with calm and secure adults, possibly in a home with older children. It is important that her new family has understanding and acceptance that she needs time to feel safe. It would be perfect if she could come to a home in the countryside where she might eventually be allowed to go outside again. Before adopting an animal, it is important to think carefully. No matter the species, there are big responsibilities!

Lilly er en søt liten kattefrøken på 9 år. I fosterhjemmet går hun under kallenavnet Lillemor. Hun er en veldig spesiell pus, både i oppførsel og i utseende. Hun har en sort flekk midt under magen og på venstre siden på kroppen har hun en «sommerfugl’. Som katter flest er hun glad i varme og elsker å ligge fremfor varmeovnen på et pledd. Hun er en rolig og koselig katt når hun bli trygg på omgivelsene. Det beste hun vet er å bli klødd på kjakene og på hodet. Når hun vil ha kos kommer hun til deg og legger seg ned foran beina dine. Hun vil helst at du skal legge deg på kne ved siden av henne å kose, og hvis hun ikke synes hun har fått nok kos så kommer hun løpende etter deg og kakker deg på foten med labben sin. Hun er ikke så glad i å bli løftet opp, men dette øver vi på i fosterhjemmet. Selv om hun er en voksen frøken glimter hun til med lek og aktivitet innimellom. Vi tror Lilly vil få det best i et hjem med rolige trygge voksne, eventuelt i et hjem med store barn. Det er viktig at hennes nye flokk har forståelse og aksept for at hun bruker tid på å bli trygg. Det ville vært perfekt om hun kunne komme til et hjem litt landlig hvor hun kanskje på sikt kan få lov til å være ute igjen. Før man går til anskaffelse av et dyr, er det viktig å tenke seg nøye om. Uansett art, følger det store forpliktelser!

About Lilly

What life with Lilly looks like

Lilly is a large adult mixed breed cat waiting at Dyrebeskyttelsen Norge Salten in Bodø.

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 Norway

Norwegian rescues require thorough background checks. Animals leave with a Nordic pet passport and full vetting. Norway is outside the EU so import rules differ slightly — TRACES applies.

Frequently asked

Adopting Lilly, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Lilly?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Dyrebeskyttelsen Norge Salten handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Lilly on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Lilly if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Dyrebeskyttelsen Norge Salten 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 Lilly 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 Lilly 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 Dyrebeskyttelsen Norge Salten early rather than rehoming privately; they know Lilly 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 (NO). 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.
