Papay (Папай)

Mixed Breed · Male

Kyiv and Kyiv Oblast! Of course, we would like to find a family for this unfortunate kitten, but most likely it is impossible. He was found in a terrible condition, one eye was knocked out and simply hanging, his whisker was broken. Whether he was beaten or hit by a car, his condition was terrible. Our minus, we always forget to take a photo of the animal's condition when it first arrives. Frankly speaking, the only thought at the moment is to save him. As you can see in the photo, he looks now and this is after several months of fighting for his life. We named the boy Papiy, it's more likely a domestic kitten, quite young, who was on a walk. He is very, very delicate! We are infinitely sorry for him! His approximate date of birth is May 28, 2020. Coat color – probably tabby. Vaccinated, neutered, with a veterinary passport. House-trained, eats quality pet food.

Київ та Київська область! Звичайно нам хотілось би знайти родину цьому нещасному котику, але скоріше за все це неможливо. Його знайшли в жахливому стані, одне око було вибито і просто висіло, щелепа зламана. Чи його побили, чи машина вдарила, стан був жахливий. Наш мінус, ми завжди забуваємо зробити фото, в якому стані тварини попадають до нас. Відверто кажучи, в цей час одна думка спасти. Так, як на фото, він виглядає зараз і це декілька місяців боротьби за його життя. Назвали ми хлопчика Папаєм, це скоріше за все домашній котик, доволі молодий, який був на самовигулі. Дуже, дуже ніжний! Нам безмежно його шкода! Умовна дата народження 28 травня 2020 року. Забарвлення – от напевне таббі. Вакцинований, кастрований, з ветеринарним паспортом. До лотка привчений, їсть якісний корм. Надаємо інформаційну підтримку, консультацію зоопсихолога та ветеринарного лікаря.

About Papay (Папай)

What life with Papay (Папай) looks like

Papay (Папай) is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Dobri Ruky in Kyiv.

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 Papay (Папай), answered.

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