Tabbi (Таббі)

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 10 years

Kyiv and the Kyiv region! We’re looking for a family! Tabbie is once again searching for a home—and this time, she really hopes it’ll be forever. Five years ago, Tabbie left the shelter and went home. She was already an adult dog by then. She found her person, her favorite couch, and her daily walks. But life sometimes writes very sad stories. Her owner passed away. Together with her cat Camilla, Tabbie returned to us. It seems that recently, the woman had been seriously ill. Tabbie hardly ever went outside anymore; she lived only in the apartment. And now, once again, she’s back at the shelter. New sounds, new smells, a kennel, dozens of unfamiliar dogs. She remembers us—but she’s extremely anxious, stressed, and just can’t understand why everything has changed. Tabbie is already 10 years old. To some, that might seem like an “old dog.” But to us, these ten years represent a devoted heart that simply wants to be by a person’s side. She doesn’t ask for much—just a quiet home, leisurely walks, a warm rug, and a person who’ll never disappear again. We really hope this story won’t end with another return to the shelter. We dream of a new home where Tabbie will spend her happiest years. If you’re ready to give her peace and love—please write to us. Tabbie is waiting so eagerly! Estimated date of birth: February 1, 2016. Vaccinated, microchipped, spayed, and has a veterinary passport. Medium size. Coat color: black with tan markings. We provide informational support, consultation from a canine expert/zoopsychologist, and advice from a veterinarian.

Київ і Київська область! Шукаємо родину! Таббі знову шукає дім і дуже хочеться, щоб цього разу - назавжди. П'ять років тому Таббі поїхала з притулку додому. Вже дорослою собакою. Вона знайшла свою людину, свій диван, свої прогулянки. Але, життя іноді пише дуже сумні історії. Господарки не стало. Разом із кішкою Камілою, Таббі повернулася до нас. Схоже, останнім часом жінка вже тяжко хворіла. Таббі майже не виходила на вулицю, жила лише у квартирі. А тепер знову притулок. Нові звуки, нові запахи, вольєр, десятки незнайомих собак. Вона нас пам'ятає. Але, дуже нервує, стресує і ніяк не може зрозуміти, чому все змінилося. Таббі вже 10 років. Для когось це "немолода собака". А для нас - це десять років відданого серця, яке просто хоче бути поруч із людиною. Вона не просить багато. Лише тихий дім, неспішні прогулянки, теплий килимок і людину, яка більше ніколи не зникне. Ми дуже хочемо, щоб ця історія не скінчилась поверненням у притулок. Мріємо, що буде новий дім, де Таббі проведе свої найщасливіші роки. Якщо ви готові подарувати їй спокій і любов - напишіть нам. Таббі дуже чекає. Умовна дата народження 01 лютого 2016 року. Вакцинована, чипована, кастрована, має ветеринарний паспорт. Розмір середній. Забарвлення чорне з підпалом. Надаємо інформаційну підтримку, консультацію кінолога/зоопсихолога та ветеринарного лікаря.

About Tabbi (Таббі)

What life with Tabbi (Таббі) looks like

Tabbi (Таббі) is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Happy Paw Kyiv Oblast in Ukraine.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

Frequently asked

Adopting Tabbi (Таббі), answered.

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