How do I contact the shelter about Retu (Рету)?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Dobri Ruky handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Retu (Рету) on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Retu (Рету) if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Dobri Ruky 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 Retu (Рету) 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 Retu (Рету) 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 Dobri Ruky early rather than rehoming privately; they know Retu (Рету) 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.

Adopt Retu (Рету)

Mixed Breed · Female

This is Retu, not long ago we were grooming her lovely red kittens. Now it's time for their mom. We sterilized her and are looking for a family. Retu appeared at a communal enterprise after the start of the war, and we learned about her when she had already given birth to kittens. We don't know the truth, but we can imagine that she was likely a home cat that was released when people were evacuated. She is very young. Right now, she is in home foster care. So far, she has not gone anywhere in the animal shelter. By character, she is wonderful, gentle, and affectionate. Her estimated date of birth is August 23, 2020. Coat color is red, marbled. Sterilized, vaccinated, with a veterinary passport.

Це Рету, нещодавно ми прилаштовували її гарних рудих кошенят. А тепер настала черга і для їх мами. Ми стерилізували її і шукаємо родину. Рета з’явилась після комунального підприємства з початку війни, про неї ми узнали, коли вже вона народила кошенят. Правду ми не знаємо, але можемо пофантазувати, скоріш за все це домашня киця, котру випустили, коли евакуювались. Вона дуже молода. Зараз вона знаходиться на домашній перетримці. Поки що. В притулок брати нікуди. По характеру чудова, лагідна, ніжна. Умовна дата народження 23 серпня 2020 року. Забарвлення руде, мрамор. Стерилізована, вакцинована, з ветеринарним паспортом. Надаємо інформаційну підтримку, консультацію зоопсихолога та ветеринарного лікаря.
