Saida

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 8 years

Cat Saida (f. 01/06-18) and Pusia Sangita (f. 01/08-21) - 7 and 4 years old - Not suitable for children - Suitable with other animals Saida and Sangita are two best friends who are looking for a shared, safe home where they can continue to flourish. These two girls are connected by a strong friendship and a common background: both were rescued from a demanding life in a large cat colony, where they lived together with over 50 other cats. Get to know Saida and Sangita Saida, born in 2018, is a longhaired gray tabby beauty with a plump tail and a cautious look. She is still a bit shy, but shows cautious trust by sniffing and licking the hand. She talks a lot - especially when she misses Sangita - and moves with a single movement when her best friend comes near. Although she needs time and security, she is playful and loves stimulation. She sometimes trembles in her paws, probably due to low muscle mass after being undernourished, but is otherwise healthy and follows everything that happens. Sangita, born in 2021, is a gray tabby with silver-gleaming short-haired fur, green eyes, and a body built for speed and play. She is very active and loves playing with feathers and strings, and makes acrobatic jumps when the hunt is on. She has also learned to like being petted and allows herself to be scratched on the head and under the chin. Sangita is more secure and outgoing than Saida, and serves as a sort of support for her - therefore they must be adopted together. Both cats are used to other cats, but should not live with small children. They have lived as indoor cats in a foster home, and will be able to thrive indoors as long as they get plenty of stimulation. In the future, they will probably both appreciate safe and quiet outdoor areas - but this must happen gradually and carefully. These two have had a tough start in life, but have kept both curiosity, playfulness, and warmth. Now they are looking for people who understand sensitive cats, and who have patience and love to give them the home they have never had before - together. These two are best suited for a quiet, child-free home with cat-friendly owners. Ideally with safe outdoor possibilities in the future, but first and foremost with warmth, safety, and time. Saida and Sangita have had a health check, vaccination, and deworming treatment, and are spayed and microchipped. The package price at the veterinary clinics in Tromsø for a male cat is approximately NOK 4000, while for a female cat it is approximately NOK 6000. So you save a lot of money by getting a cat from the animal welfare organization!

Pusia Saida (f. 01/06-18) og Pusia Sangita (f. 01/08-21) Hunner | 7 og 4 år | Passer ikke med barn | Passer med andre dyr Saida og Sangita er to hjertevenner som ønsker seg et felles, trygt hjem hvor de kan få blomstre videre. Disse to jentene er bundet sammen av et sterkt vennskap og en felles bakgrunn: begge er reddet fra et krevende liv i en stor kattekoloni, der de levde sammen med over 50 andre katter. Bli bedre kjent med Saida og Sangita Saida, født i 2018, er en langhåret, gråtabby skjønnhet med bustete hale og et forsiktig blikk. Hun er fortsatt litt sky, men viser forsiktig tillit gjennom å snuse og slikke på hånden. Hun snakker mye – særlig når hun savner Sangita – og roer seg med én gang bestevennen hennes kommer nær. Selv om hun trenger tid og trygghet, er hun leken og elsker aktivisering. Hun skjelver litt i potene, trolig grunnet lav muskelmasse etter å ha vært underernært, men er ellers frisk og følger med på alt som skjer. Sangita, født i 2021, er en gråtabby med sølvglinsende korthårspels, grønne øyne og en kropp bygget for fart og lek. Hun er svært aktiv og elsker lek med fjær og snorer, og gjør akrobatiske hopp når jakten er i gang. Hun har også lært å like kos og lar seg klø både på hodet og under haken. Sangita er tryggere og mer frempå enn Saida, og fungerer som en slags støttespiller for henne – derfor må de adopteres sammen. Begge kattene er vant med andre katter, men bør ikke bo med små barn. De har bodd som innekatter i fosterhjem, og vil kunne trives inne så lenge de får rikelig med aktivisering. På sikt vil de nok begge sette pris på trygge og rolige uteområder – men det må skje gradvis og forsiktig. Disse to har hatt en tøff start på livet, men har bevart både nysgjerrighet, lekenhet og varme. Nå søker de mennesker som forstår sårbare katter, og som har tålmodighet og kjærlighet til å gi dem det hjemmet de aldri har hatt før – sammen. Disse to passer best i et rolig, barnefritt hjem med kattevante eiere. Gjerne med trygge utemuligheter på sikt, men først og fremst med varme, trygghet og tid. Saida og Sangita har fått helsesjekk, vaksine og ormekur, og de er kastrert og ID-merket. Dyrebeskyttelsen Norge Tromsø tar et adopsjonsgebyr på 2000 kroner for alle voksne katter. Dette utgjør under halvparten av det en privatperson vil ha i veterinærutgifter til ID- merking, vaksinering og kastrering av en katt. Pakkeprisen hos veterinærklinikkene i Tromsø er for en hannkatt er ca. kr. 4000, mens man for en hunnkatt må betale ca. kr. 6000. Man sparer altså mye penger på å få seg katt fra Dyrebeskyttelsen!

About Saida

What life with Saida looks like

Saida is a large adult mixed breed cat waiting at Dyrebeskyttelsen Norge Tromsø in Tromsø.

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 Norway

Norwegian rescues require thorough background checks. Animals leave with a Nordic pet passport and full vetting. Norway is outside the EU so import rules differ slightly — TRACES applies.

Frequently asked

Adopting Saida, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Saida?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Dyrebeskyttelsen Norge Tromsø handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Saida on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Saida if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Dyrebeskyttelsen Norge Tromsø 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 Saida 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 Saida 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 Dyrebeskyttelsen Norge Tromsø early rather than rehoming privately; they know Saida 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 (NO). 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.
