Mainty

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

Mainey is a cautious male cat who has not yet learned to trust humans, which is completely understandable given his background. He likes to stay in his safe place on the shelf and sneaks out when no one is looking. It's clear that there is a nice and friendly soul behind his uncertainty, waiting to blossom once he feels secure. Therefore, Mainey is looking for a calm and understanding home where he can get the support he needs to start trusting humans. In the right home, he will become a lovely and appreciated family member.

SV·Show original

Mainty är en försiktig hankatt som ännu inte riktigt vågar lita på oss människor, vilket är helt förståeligt med tanke på hans bakgrund. Han håller sig gärna på sin trygga plats i hyllan och smyger fram när ingen tittar. Det märks ändå att det finns en fin och vänlig själ bakom hans osäkerhet, som väntar på att få blomma ut när tryggheten infinner sig.Mainty söker därför ett lugnt och förstående hem där han får den stöttning han behöver för att våga börja lita på oss människor. I rätt hem kommer han att bli en fin och uppskattad familjemedlem.

About Mainty

What life with Mainty looks like

Mainty is a young 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 Mainty, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Mainty?
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 Mainty on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Mainty 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 Mainty 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 Mainty 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 Mainty 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.
