How do I contact the shelter about Sofa (Софа)?

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 Sofa (Софа) on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Sofa (Софа) 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 Sofa (Софа) 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 Sofa (Софа) 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 Sofa (Софа) and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.

Sofa (Софа)

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

This girl got her chance at a home life thanks to a coincidence. And thanks to her wonderful character. Sofia was caught for emergency sterilization because her belly looked like she was pregnant. But it turned out her days were numbered. She had a huge pyometra that could burst at any moment and Sofia would not have lasted long. After the surgery, Sofia changed a lot. From a cat that was afraid and didn't trust me, she became incredibly gentle and affectionate. I'm sure she understood that she was saved. And then the decision to release her back on the street became impossible. She helped other kittens in the room adapt, comforted everyone who was scared, gave warmth and love to everyone who came to choose a kitten, but no one chose her. They say she has a very ordinary color... but is color the main thing? She's a real treasure among kittens. Not pushy, but affectionate. Loves to "talk" with her sweet, thin voice. She's capable of tricks for pate. She's young, under 2 years old, vaccinated, has a passport and is spayed. She immediately went to the potty on her own. She scratches the scratching post. Please, give her a chance, I know you will love her.

Ця дівчинка отримала свій шанс на домашнє життя завдяки випадку. І завдяки своєму прекрасному характеру. Софійка була відловлена для термінової стерилізації, бо мала животик схожий на вагітний. Але виявилось, що її дні життя шли на години.. Вона мала величезну піометру, яка могла луснути у будь-який момент і тоді б Софи не стало б дуже швидко. Після операції Софа дуже змінились. З киці, яка боялась і не довіряла мені, вона стала неймовірно ніжною і ручною. Я впевнена, вона точно зрозуміла, що її врятували. І тоді рішення випустити її назад на вулицю стало просто неможливим. Вона допомагала адаптуватись іншим котикам у кімнаті, жаліла всіх кому було страшно, дарувала тепло і любов кожному, хто приходив обирати собі котика, але її ніхто так і не обрав. Кажуть, має дуже звичайний окрас.. але хіба окрас це головне ? Вона справжній скарб серед котиків. Не навʼязлива, але ручна. Любить «поговорити» своїм милим, тоненьким голоском. За паштети здатна трюки) Вона молода, їй до 2х років, щеплена, має паспорт і стеризована. На горщик одразу пішла сама. Котики точить об дряпалку. Прошу, дайте їй шанс, я знаю ви її дуже полюбите.
