Melisa (Меліса)

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Melisa survived the war... now she really needs a home. She is only 1 year old, but she has already seen things no cat should ever have to experience. Melisa was brought from the war zone, saved, given a chance - but she still doesn't have a real home. She is quiet, gentle and very sensitive girl. In her eyes there is something endured, but also hope that somewhere there is a person who will never leave her again. Melisa is a calm, kind, smart cat who doesn't need much - just warmth, safety and love. She will quietly purr beside you, giving the feeling of comfort and gratitude for every day. The beauty is only 1 year old, she is already spayed, vaccinated, and knows the litter box perfectly. After everything she has been through, she deserves not a temporary place, but a real home forever. Give Melisa a life without fear. Let her war story end with warmth and love.

Меліса пережила війну… тепер їй дуже потрібен дім Їй лише 1 рік, а вона вже встигла побачити те, чого не повинна була пережити жодна киця. Мелісу привезли із зони війни, врятували, дали шанс — але справжнього дому в неї досі немає. Вона тиха, ніжна і дуже чутлива дівчинка. У її очах — пережите, але разом із цим і надія, що десь є людина, яка більше ніколи не залишить. Меліса спокійна, лагідна, розумна киця, яка не потребує багато — лише тепла, безпеки і любові. Вона буде тихо муркотіти поруч, даруючи відчуття затишку і вдячності за кожен день. Красуні всього 1 рік, вона вже стерилізована, вакцинована, лоточок знає на відмінно. Після всього пережитого вона заслуговує не на тимчасове місце, а на справжній дім назавжди. Подаруйте Мелісі життя без страху. Нехай її історія війни закінчиться теплом і любов’ю. Можливо, саме у вас вона нарешті знайде свій свій теплий куточок і спокій

About Melisa (Меліса)

What life with Melisa (Меліса) looks like

Melisa (Меліса) is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Happy Paw Kyiv in Ukraine.

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 Ukraine

The shelter typically completes the animal's vaccinations, microchipping, and pet passport before adoption. Specific fees and process details vary by shelter and country — confirm directly via the contact details in the sidebar.

Frequently asked

Adopting Melisa (Меліса), answered.

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