Nikijs

Mixed Breed · Male

A litter of kittens, along with their siblings, lived in a shed in a private house in the Jūrmala area. Their mother, a stray cat, had given birth to the kittens and raised them until they became independent, and she has not been seen for several months. A couple of pensioners had taken care of the large cat family, but feeding the group of cats every day became difficult with their small pension. So the kittens ended up in the shelter. They are not available for adoption yet! (We do not reserve cats!)

Runčuks kopā ar brāļiem un māsām mitinājās kādas privātmājas šķūnītī Jūrmalas pusē. Viņu māmiņa - bezsaimnieku kaķenīte - kaķēnus bija laidusi pasaulē, izbarojusi, līdz tie kļuva patstāvīgi un pati nu jau vairākus mēnešus nav manīta. Rūpi par brango kaķu saimi bija uzņēmušies kāds pensionāru pāris, bet pabarot kaķu bariņu katru dienu ar nelielo pensiju kļuva apgrūtinoši. Tā kaķēni nonāca patversmē. Pagaidām adopcijai nav pieejami!( kaķus nerezervējam!

About Nikijs

What life with Nikijs looks like

Nikijs is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Dzīvnieku Draugu Fonds.

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 Latvia

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 Nikijs, answered.

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