Pukka

Female · Kitten

From the Siamese cat Pukka, there emerges a true personality. The grooming sessions certainly please these cats, but the contentedness of Pukka also appreciates its own peace. She would also, if necessary, inform if the boundaries set by her are being broken. Pukka is not given to families with small children. We still don't precisely know what Pukka would make of other cats, and whether she would prefer to be the sole cat or seek a feline companion.

19.5.2026: Puolipitkäkarvaiselta Pukalta löytyy omaa tahtoa. Rapsutukset kyllä kelpaavat neidille, mutta seesteisyydestä nauttiva Pukka arvostaa myös omaa rauhaa. Hän osaakin tarvittaessa kertoa, jos hänen asettamansa rajat rikotaan. Pukkaa ei luovuteta pienten lasten perheeseen. Vielä emme tarkalleen tiedä mitä Pukka muista kissoista tuumaa, ja viihtyisikö hän parhaiten ainoana kissana vai tarvitseeko kissakaverin.

About Pukka

What life with Pukka looks like

Pukka is a puppy/kitten cat waiting at HESY in Helsinki.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇫🇮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 Pukka, answered.

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