Silva (Сільва)

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Silva - a cat for the soul. Photos do not convey all of the beauty of this lovely gray beauty. This cat is 1 year old, spayed, vaccinated, and uses a litter box. Very gentle and good. She came from the war. From where every day was scary, loud and dangerous. She miraculously saved her little life... but this is not the end of her story. Now she is in an animal shelter. Behind the bars - silence, cold and loneliness. It's very hard for her here. There is no home, no hands that embrace, no person she can trust. She does not understand why after the hell of war she has to wait again - whether she will have a future. She doesn't ask for much. Just a home. Just one person who will look at her and say: "You are mine." Just warmth, a bowl of food, peaceful nights and love that she so desperately needs. She really wants to live at home. To sleep not on cold plastic behind bars, but next to a person. To purr not into emptiness, but into a heart. Please don't walk by. For someone she is just a cat in a cage. But for her you are the whole world and a chance at life.

Сільва – кото-мала для душі. Фото не передають всієї вроди попелястої красуні. Котусі 1 рік, вона стерилізована, вакцинована, з лоточком на ти. Дуже ніжна і хороша. Вона приїхала з війни. Звідти, де щодня було страшно, гучно і небезпечно. Вона дивом врятувала своє маленьке життя… але це ще не кінець її історії. Тепер вона сидить у клітці притулку. За ґратами — тиша, холод і самотність. Тут їй дуже погано. Тут немає дому, немає рук, які обіймають, немає людини, якій можна довіритись. Вона не розуміє, чому після пекла війни знову мусить чекати — чи буде в неї майбутнє. Вона не просить багато. Лише дім. Лише одну людину, яка подивиться на неї й скаже: «Ти моя». Лише тепло, мисочку їжі, спокійні ночі і любов, якої їй так бракує. Вона дуже хоче жити вдома. Спати не на холодному пластику за гратами, а поруч із людиною. Муркотіти не в порожнечу, а в серце. Будь ласка, не проходьте повз. Для когось вона — просто кішка з клітки. А для неї Ви — весь світ і шанс на життя.

About Silva (Сільва)

What life with Silva (Сільва) looks like

Silva (Сільва) is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Happy Paw Kyiv in Ukraine.

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 Ukraine

The shelter typically completes the animal's vaccinations, microchipping, and pet passport before adoption. Specific fees and process details vary by shelter and country — confirm directly via the contact details in the sidebar.

Frequently asked

Adopting Silva (Сільва), answered.

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