SUSIE

Mixed Breed · Female · 10 years

SUSIE is a lovely adult girl with lots of personality (born April-14). She is a very loving cat, who comes running with her tail up in the air when she wants cuddles. A real diva who knows what she wants! She likes to be on the lap, and otherwise be involved in what you are doing. She is curious and explorative, anything new is exciting. As mentioned, she loves cuddles and closeness, but if someone is too eager and pets her for too long or too much, she can become overstimulated and then says stop in a cat's way; with a little flick or a glance. As long as you stay within her pet tolerance, there is no problem. She comes with a recipe ;) She has a long fluffy coat that requires a bit of brushing, but both brushing and clipping go very well when done in portions. She needs a cat-friendly home that can understand and respect her personality. She does not like children, and therefore needs a home for adults without children now or in the future. She also needs to be an only cat in the house, as she is not enthusiastic about her feline companions. Quiet and safe outdoor opportunities are high on her list for her future home, so she can burn off some energy outside.

Susie er en nydelig voksen jente med masse personlighet (født april-14). Hun er en veldig kjærlig pus, som kommer løpende med halen i været når hun vil ha kos. En skikkelig primadonna som vet hva hun vil! Hun vil gjerne ligge på fanget, og ellers være med på det man gjør på. Hun er nysgjerrig og utforskende, alt nytt er spennende. Som sagt så er hun glad i kos og nærhet, men blir man for ivrig og klapper for lenge eller for mye, blir hun overstimulert og kan da si stopp på katters vis; med en liten lusing eller et glefs. Hvits man holder seg innenfor hennes klappetoleranse, er det ingen problem. Hun kommer med oppskrift ;) Hun har en lang fluffy pels som krever litt stell, men både børsting og klipp går veldig fint når man tar det i porsjoner. Hun trenger et kattevant hjem som kan forstå og respektere hennes personlighet. Hun er liker ikke barn, og må derfor få et voksent hjem uten barn nå eller i fremtiden. Hun må også være alenekatt i huset, da hun ikke er begeistret for sine artsfrender.. Rolige og trygge utemuligheter er høyt på listen for hennes fremtidige hjem, så hun kan få ut litt energi ute.

About SUSIE

What life with SUSIE looks like

SUSIE is a small adult mixed breed cat waiting at Dyrebeskyttelsen Bergen in Bergen.

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.

Note from the shelter: Overstimulation sensitivity - becomes overstimulated with too much petting and may scratch or nip. Requires understanding of her boundaries.

🇳🇴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 SUSIE, answered.

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