Adopt Maxi

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 5 years

Maxi was found together with some other cats outside Uppsala. Maxi is a cautious female cat who does not yet fully trust us humans. She likes to stay in a safe place, preferably near or right next to a cat friend. There is a rare personality behind the uncertainty, but Maxi needs time and support to eventually feel brave enough to show who she is. Maxi had a change in one of her ears, but thanks to the organization's care, this has been surgically removed so she no longer has these problems. Maxi is looking for a calmer home where she can have time and patience to develop at her own pace. Maxi would really like to have a calm cat companion who can help her become increasingly secure.

Maxi är upphittad tillsammans med några andra katter utanför Uppsala.Maxi är en försiktig honkatt som inte riktigt litar på oss människor ännu. Hon håller sig gärna på en trygg plats, helst nära eller alldeles intill en kattkompis. Det går att ana en rar personlighet bakom osäkerheten, men Maxi behöver få tid och stöttning för att så småningom våga visa vem hon är. Maxi hade en förändring i sitt ena öra men genom föreningens försorg är nu detta bortopererat så hon slipper de besvären.Maxi söker ett lugnare hem där hon får tid och tålamod att utvecklas i sin egen takt. Maxi vill gärna ha en lugn kattkompis som kan hjälpa henne bli allt tryggare.

About Maxi

What life with Maxi looks like

Maxi is a small 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 Maxi, answered.

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