Adopt Pelé

Unknown

PELÉ is a black and white male cat, born around 2020. He came to the Cat Shelter together with Findius, Kara 2, and Furrev after living homeless behind an farm near IKEA in Malmö. Pelé is a hungry boy who likes to sun himself by the window. He likes to be up high to survey and feels safe there. He doesn’t fully trust humans yet, so it will take time and patience for him to blossom, but the path to his heart is absolutely through food. He has tooth decay, the teeth are clear now but will need to be checked annually. Pelé wants to go to a home without children, with or without a cat companion. This animal is not suitable for homes with children. This animal is for adult-only homes.

PELÉ är en svart och vit hankatt, född ca 2020. Han kom till Katthemmet tillsammans med Findius, Kara 2 och Furrev efter att ha levt hemlösa vid en gård bakom Ikea i Malmö. Pelé är en matglad kille som gillar att sola vid fönstret. Han håller sig gärna på lite höjd för att spana och där han känner att han kan sova tryggt. Han litar inte helt på oss människor ännu, så det kommer att krävas tid och tålamod för att han ska blomma ut, men vägen till hans hjärta är absolut mat. Han har tandlossning, tänderna är klara för nu men kommer behöva kikas på årligen. Pelé vill komma till ett hem utan barn, med eller utan kattkompis.

About Pelé

What life with Pelé looks like

Pelé is a adult cat waiting at Stockholms Katthem in Stockholms Katthem.

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 Sweden

Swedish shelters require an adoption application and home visit. Animals are chipped, vaccinated, and sterilized. Cross-border placements within the EU use the standard pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Pelé, answered.

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