Papayya (Папайя)

Mixed Breed · Female

About the kitten: Paraya is a little cat from a large family. She was born on the premises of a shipbuilding plant in Podil. She lived there with ten other kittens until neighbors from the auto repair shop started threatening to poison them all. Our volunteer brought them to the shelter because leaving them to fend for themselves was simply out of the question. She’s not one of those cats who immediately jumps into your arms. Paraya is cautious and somewhat reserved, but she does allow herself to be petted. She really needs a patient, kind-hearted person who can help her trust people again and show her that home can be a safe place.

Про котика:Парайя – кицюня з багатодітної сім’ї. Народилася на території суднобудівельного заводу на Подолі. Жила на тій же території з іншими десятьма котиками, аж доки сусіди з автосервісу не почали погрожувати, що всіх отруять. Наш волонтер привезла їх в притулок, оскільки лишити їх на поталу було просто неможливо. Вона не з тих кішок, що одразу застрибують на руки. Папайя обережна, трохи закрита, але гладити себе дозволяє. Їй дуже потрібна людина з терпінням і добрим серцем, яка допоможе їй знову повірити людям і покаже, що дім може бути безпечним.

About Papayya (Папайя)

What life with Papayya (Папайя) looks like

Papayya (Папайя) is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Притулок Best Friends 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 Papayya (Папайя), answered.

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