Adopt Maddox

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Maddox was found together with some other cats outside Uppsala. Maddox is a cautious male cat who does not yet fully trust people. He is usually found near another cat friend or up on the highest shelf in the room. He prefers to keep his distance for now, but he seems okay when a person is nearby for a while. With time and patience, we are sure he will feel more and more safe. Maddox is looking for a home that has time and patience to let him take things at his own pace. He would like to have a calm cat friend who can help him continue to develop.

Maddox är upphittad tillsammans med några andra katter utanför Uppsala.Maddox är en försiktig hankatt som inte riktigt litar på oss människor ännu. Han hittas oftast nära någon kattkompis eller uppe på den högsta hyllan i rummet. Han vill än så länge hålla avstånd men tycker det är okej när människan sitter i närheten en stund. Med tid och tålamod är vi övertygade om att han kommer våga känna sig allt mer trygg.Maddox söker ett hem som har tid och tålamod att låta honom ta allt i sin takt. Han vill gärna ha en lugn kattkompis som kan hjälpa honom att fortsätta utvecklas.

About Maddox

What life with Maddox looks like

Maddox is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Uppsala Katthem in Uppsala.

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 Sweden

Swedish shelters require an adoption application and home visit. Animals are chipped, vaccinated, and sterilized. Cross-border placements within the EU use the standard pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Maddox, answered.

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