Stesha (Стеша)

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 7 years

For the rare beauty cat, a Sphynx named SteSha (she is 4 years old), urgent need for a loving family! SteSha was brought from the war zone. A kind, affectionate beauty in a rare tortoiseshell coat, with emerald eyes. By character, independent, does not like when she is hugged, but comes herself to start rubbing. Greeted owners from work, in the morning ran to the bathroom room, lay on her back on the mat and waited to be petted. She likes to sleep in a blanket, also likes to sleep at the feet, but also under the blanket. It will bother until it gets in and sleeps all night. Without a blanket, she gets cold, she still hides in it, there I think she feels safe. Very loves to sit on the windowsill, on the balcony and look out the window. Does not like to bathe under the shower. We filled a basin with water, sat her there, so she did not resist. She sat in warm water, then washed her with shampoo, rinsed the shampoo from a bucket. Fears, panics, does not tolerate loud music and everything that makes hissing sounds. Does not like other animals! Gets very stressed! Given only to people who previously had Sphynxes, in a family without small noisy children. Clean, uses a litter box with wood filler.

Для кошечки редкой КРАСОТЫ, породы Сфинкс, по кличке Стеша (ей 4 годика) СРОЧНО нужна любящая семья! Стешу привезли из зоны боевых действий. Добрая, ласковая красавица в редком черепаховом окрасе, с изумрудными глазками. По характеру, самостоятельная, не любит когда её тискают, но сама приходит начинать ластится. Встречала хозяев с работы, утром бежала в ванную комнату ложилась на спину на коврик и ждёт когда её погладят. Спать любит в одеяле, также любит спать в ногах, но тоже под одеялом. Будет надоедать пока не залезет и там спит до утра. Без одеяла мёрзнет, она в нем ещё прячется, там я думаю она чувствует себя в безопасности. Очень любит сидеть на подоконнике, на балконе и смотреть в окошко.Под душем не любит купаться. Набирали ей в тазик воды, садили её туда, так она не сопротивлялась. Посидела в теплой воде, потом её мыли шампунем, с ковшика смывали шампунь. БОИТСЯ, ПАНИКУЕТ, НЕ ПЕРЕНОСИТ громкую музыку и ВСЁ, что издаёт ШИПЯЩИЕ звуки. Не любит других животных! Сильно стрессует! Отдается ТОЛЬКО тем людям, у кого ранее были Сфинксы, в семью БЕЗ маленьких шумных деток. Чистоплотна, ходит в лоток с древесным наполнителем. Кушает сухой корм Роял Гастро От глистов и блох обработана

About Stesha (Стеша)

What life with Stesha (Стеша) looks like

Stesha (Стеша) is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Happy Paw Dnipro 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 Stesha (Стеша), answered.

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