Nemo og Balder

Domestic Shorthair · Male · 1 year

Nemo og Balder is a nice and lovely duo looking for a quiet and safe home together. They prefer a family without children and without dogs. Nemo is more confident, Balder is more cautious. Outdoor cats, but must be inside at first. We are two quite calm and social cats who like to follow what's happening. We like to sit in the windowsill and watch the big cat TV. It has been a long time since we have been outside since we are in a foster home, so often we look out of the window and daydream about being outside and feeling the wind and sun on our fur. I, who is named Nemo, am a confident and secure boy with long and beautiful fur. I am confident and fearless, and when there are visitors, I am curious and want to greet them. When visitors are checked out, I step back a bit, so I am not a shy cat. I am a very social and approachable cat. I am also a calm and relaxed cat, so playing around with all kinds of toys and making noise, I consider that to be good enough. From the very beginning in the foster home, I was social with people and also thought visitors were a nice thing. I am very fond of cuddling and love it in all forms, even belly rubs I like. I like to lie next to you on the couch, the heat is too warm. At night I sit in the bedroom window to keep you company and make sure you are okay. Sometimes I come into the bed for some closeness.

Nemo og Balder er en rolig og flott duo som ser etter et rolig og trygt hjem sammen. De ønsker seg helst en familie uten barn og uten hund. Nemo er tryggest, Balder er mer forsiktig. Utekatter, men må være inne i begynnelsen Vi er to ganske rolige og sosiale katter som liker å følge med på det som skjer. Sitter gjerne i vinduskarmen og ser på den store kattetv’n. Nå er det lenge siden vi har vært ute siden vi er i fosterhjem, så er det ofte vi ser ut av vinduet og dagdrømmer om å få være ut og kjenne vinden og solen i pelsen. Jeg, som heter Nemo, er en staselig og trygg gutt med lang og flott pels. Jeg er trygg og uredd, og når det kommer besøk, blir jeg nysgjerrig og skal hilse. Når besøkende er sjekket ut, trekker jeg meg litt tilbake, så jeg er ikke noen masete katt. Jeg er en veldig sosial og omgjengelig pus. Jeg er også en rolig og bedagelig pus, så å spinne rundt med alskens leker og lager leven, det holder jeg meg for god for. Fra første stund i fosterhjem var jeg sosial med menneskene og synes også besøkende er en hyggelig ting. Jeg er veldig glad i kos og elsker det i alle former, til og med magekos liker jeg. Jeg ligger gjerne ved siden av deg i sofaen, fanget er for varmt. På natten sitter jeg i soveromsvinduet for å holde deg med selskap og for å forsikre seg om at du har det bra. Innimellom kommer til deg i sengen for litt nærhet.

About Nemo og Balder

What life with Nemo og Balder looks like

Nemo og Balder is a large adult domestic shorthair cat waiting at Dyrebeskyttelsen Oslo in Oslo.

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.

Note from the shelter: Must be adopted together as bonded pair, indoor-only initially

🇳🇴Adopting from Norway

Norwegian rescues require thorough background checks. Animals leave with a Nordic pet passport and full vetting. Norway is outside the EU so import rules differ slightly — TRACES applies.

Frequently asked

Adopting Nemo og Balder, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Nemo og Balder?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Dyrebeskyttelsen Oslo handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Nemo og Balder on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Nemo og Balder if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Dyrebeskyttelsen Oslo 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 Nemo og Balder 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 Nemo og Balder 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 Dyrebeskyttelsen Oslo early rather than rehoming privately; they know Nemo og Balder 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 (NO). 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.
