Riga

Mixed Breed · Female · Kitten · 3 months

We welcomed Malou Rigu along with Mortis after their owner passed away and the seven-member feline household had nowhere else to go. Riga is a kind and talkative cat. She’s best suited for an apartment, as she’s never been outdoors. She’s accustomed to Mortis, and together they love to play and cause mischief. Placement in a new home is only possible with Mortis. When you choose a cat from us, we’ll ask you to make a donation toward veterinary care; this donation will be used to cover veterinary expenses. We’re a small nonprofit organization, and all costs associated with cat care—veterinary fees, food, litter, medications, transportation—are covered by our own funds, profits from our charity shop, and donations. The costs of cat care are not negligible: a single-vaccinated kitten costs about 1,200 CZK in veterinary terms (vaccination, microchip, FIV/FELV tests, flea and worm treatments); a twice-vaccinated kitten already costs 1,600 CZK, and in the case of a spayed and twice-vaccinated cat, the cost can exceed 2,000 CZK. When adopting a kitten, you’ll pay a contribution of at least 800 CZK; for a spayed cat, the contribution is 1,000 CZK. If the new owner can and wishes to contribute more or bring the cats some treats, toys, or litter, we’d be delighted :) When you take your cat home, you’ll receive its vaccination record, and if the cat is microchipped, you’ll also get the registration card for the microchip. The donation made toward veterinary care is tax-deductible, and we’ll gladly issue you a receipt. If you’re interested in this cat, you can contact Depozitum either by email or by phone. However, since we’re usually at work during the day, we can’t guarantee an immediate response. Therefore, we recommend communicating via email. You can also use the contact form directly on Depozitum’s profile. Contact Depozitum

Malou Rigu jsme přijali spolu s Mortisem poté, co jejich majitel zemřel a sedmičlenné kočičí osazenstvo nemělo kam jít. Riga je hodná a upovídaná kočička. Vhodná spíše do bytu, protože nikdy nebyla venku. Je zvyklá na Mortise a společně si dokážou hrát i řádit. Umístění do nového domova pouze společně s Mortisem. Když si u nás vyberete kočku, požádáme vás o dar na veterinární péči, tento dar je využit na zaplacení veterinárních výdajů. Jsme malá nezisková organizace, veškeré výdaje spojené s péčí o kočky (veterina, krmivo, stelivo, léky, doprava) hradíme ze svých výplat, ze zisku charitativního krámku a darů. Náklady na péči o kočky nejsou zanedbatelné, jednou očkované kotě vyjde po veterinární stránce cca na 1200 Kč (vakcinace, čip, testy FIV/FELV, odblešení a odčervení), dvakrát očkované kotě už 1600 Kč a v případě kastrované a dvakrát očkované kočky se dostáváme k částce přes 2000 Kč. Při adopci kotěte zaplatíte příspěvek ve výši alespoň 800 Kč, u kastrované kočky 1000 Kč. Pokud nový majitel může a chce přispět více, nebo kočkám přinést něco na zub, hračku či stelivo, budeme rádi :) Při převzetí kočky dostanete i její očkovací průkaz a pokud je kočka čipovaná, tak i registrační kartu k čipu. Zaplacený dar na veterinární péči se dá odečíst z daní, potvrzení vám rádi vystavíme. V případě zájmu o tuto kočku můžete depozitum kontaktovat jak emailem, tak telefonicky. Nicméně vzhledem k tomu, že jsme zpravidla přes den v práci, nemůžeme zaručit okamžitou reakci. Proto doporučujeme mailovou komunikaci. Můžete také využít kontaktního formuláře přímo na profilu depozita. Kontaktovat depozitum

About Riga

What life with Riga looks like

Riga is a puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Devět životů in Czech Republic.

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 Czech Republic

Czech shelters (útulky) include sterilization, vaccinations, and microchip ID. The adopter signs a written contract (smlouva) — the shelter may follow up to verify wellbeing.

Frequently asked

Adopting Riga, answered.

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