Adopt Pennilyn

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 10 years

PENNILYN is a black-spotted tabby and white female cat born around 2015. She arrived at our shelter with her four kittens, Cordelia, Canyon, Carter, and Chantelle, after living homeless in Billesholm. The one who adopts Pennilyn is in for a treat! She was initially cautious and spent most of the first period hiding under the sofa or bed, but we could hear how she came out in the evenings when we settled down to explore the apartment. With the help of routines and treats, she has become bolder and now enjoys being in the same room and seeing what we have. She loves to lie on the kitchen chairs and observe, and she loves to chase treats when we scatter them for her. With the help of treats, she also dares to approach humans, and it’s possible to coax a pat or two, even though Penni hasn’t quite grasped the point of pats yet (but it will click for her soon!). She just needs a little more time to settle and blossom into her confident self.

PENNILYN är en svartsköldpadda och vit honkatt född ca 2015. Kom till Katthemmet tillsammans med sina fyra ungar Cordelia, Canyon, Carter och Chantelle efter att ha levt hemlös i Billesholm. Den som får adoptera Pennilyn är lyckligt lottad! Hon var försiktig till en början och den första tiden gömde hon sig mest under soffan eller sängen, men vi kunde höra hur hon kom fram på kvällarna när vi lagt oss för att utforska lägenheten. Med hjälp av rutiner och mat så har hon vågat sig fram mer och mer, och vill gärna vara i samma rum och se vad vi har för oss. Hon älskar att ligga på köksstolarna och iaktta, och hon älskar att jaga efter godis när vi kastar iväg dem till henne. Med hjälp av godis vågar hon också närma sig oss människor och det går att lura till sig en klapp eller två, även om Penni inte helt förstått poängen med klappar än (men det kommer nog att klicka för henne snart!). Hon behöver bara lite mer tid för att landa och våga blomma ut och visa sitt självsäkra jag.

About Pennilyn

What life with Pennilyn looks like

Pennilyn is a adult mixed breed 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 Pennilyn, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Pennilyn?
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 Pennilyn on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Pennilyn 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 Pennilyn 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 Pennilyn 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 Pennilyn 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.
