Poseidon

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

This cat is like a haiku. Watching Poseidon is like a meditation exercise. Does not allow people to touch yet. Poseidon enjoys napping alone or with feline friends. Sensitive and calm, gentle with other cats. Does not play with people, but alone may gently swat at toys. Gets along with other cats. Feline companion recommended, but not suitable as a companion for a young cat.

Tämä kissa on kuin haiku. Poseidonin katsominen on kuin meditaatioharjoitus. Ei anna vielä ihmisten koskettaa. Poseidon nauttii nokosista yksin tai kissakavereiden kanssa. Herkkä ja rauhallinen, hellä muita kissoja kohtaan. Ei leiki ihmisten kanssa, mutta yksikseen saattaa varovasti läpsiä leluja. Tulee toimeen muiden kissojen kanssa. Kissakaveri suositeltava, mutta ei sovellu nuoren kissan kumppaniksi.

About Poseidon

What life with Poseidon looks like

Poseidon is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at Vaasan Kissatalo in Finland.

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 Finland

Finnish shelters require a home visit and an adoption contract. Animals are vetted; the EU pet passport covers cross-border travel within the bloc.

Frequently asked

Adopting Poseidon, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Poseidon?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Vaasan Kissatalo handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Poseidon on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Poseidon if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Vaasan Kissatalo 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Poseidon 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 Poseidon 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 Vaasan Kissatalo early rather than rehoming privately; they know Poseidon 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 (FI). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically.
