Mörkö, Jämsänkoski

Mixed Breed · Male

Mörkö is a young, two-year-old long-haired tabby cat who arrived at the shelter with two other cats at the end of April. When she arrived, Mörkö was underweight, shy, and suffering from ear infections. Thanks to good feeding, her weight has risen almost to a normal level, the ear infections have been treated, a couple of ticks have been removed during veterinary visits, and a flea collar has been applied responsibly. Mörkö is still very shy and spends most of the day hiding behind the box, but the cat siblings and playmates are beginning to interest her. Mörkö has been diagnosed with diabetes and has mild, intermittent appetite loss, which is being managed with her diet. Both of them require ongoing annual veterinary follow-up. Mörkö is neutered, microchipped, dewormed, and FIV/FELV test results are negative. Please read Luethan Kisu ry's guidelines for cat takers before responding to the questions asked of cat takers.

Mörkö on nuori, muutaman vuoden ikäinen, pitkäkarvainen poikakissa, joka tuli yhdistykselle kahden muun kissan kanssa huhtikuun lopussa. Tullessaan Mörkö oli alipainoinen, takkuinen ja kärsi korvatulehduksesta. Nyt paino on noussut hyvän ruokahalun ansiosta hienosti lähes normaaliin lukemiin, korvavaivat saatiin hoidettua, takkujakin on selvitelty pariin otteeseen eläinlääkärikäyntien yhteydessä ja hiekkalaatikko otettu suvereenisti haltuun. Mörkö on edelleen erittäin arka ja viettää suurimman osan päivästä piilotellen laatikoston takana, mutta kissakaverit ja lelut alkavat pikkuhiljaa kiinnostaa. Möröllä on todettu hammassyöpymää ja alkava, lievä munuaisten vajaatoiminta, jota hoidetaan ruokavaliolla. Molemmat vaivat vaativat jatkossa vuosittaista seurantaa eläinlääkärillä. Mörkö on kastroitu, sirutettu, madotettuna ja fiv/felv- testit todettu negatiiviseksi. Luethan Kisu ry:n ohjeet kissanottajalle ennen yhteydenottoa ja vastaat jo ensimmäisessä viestissä kissanottajille tehtyihin haastattelukysymyksiin. Kisu ry on rekisteröitynyt eläintenpitäjä- ja pitopaikkarekisteriin asiakastunnuksella: 24225667

Frequently asked

Adopting Mörkö, Jämsänkoski, answered.

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