Taika, Jyväskylä

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

A sweet, small female cat named Taika, estimated to be around 4 years old, has been given the nickname "Kauniskasvo" at the trap site. Behind her beautiful face, however, lies a mouth in very poor condition. Several teeth were missing, and the remaining ones had to be removed by the veterinarian. Additionally, Taika suffered from a uterine infection after an unfortunate birth, but has since recovered well. Taika is shy, but she dares to move when food is present, as long as the person is still in the same room. Active approach still makes her flee. Toothlessness does not affect Taika's appetite, as she enjoys soft wet food. She also manages to use the litter box well. High places are Taika's favorite, and she often watches from the top of the cabinet or from the window on her scratching post. At night, it seems there is more movement, and toys clearly change their location. Playing with a person is still too exciting for Taika. As a population cat, Taika is accustomed to other cats in the surrounding area, and it is likely that she would benefit from a trusting feline companion in a new home. Taika is being given away vaccinated, microchipped, spayed, and FIV/FeLV-tested (negative). She has also received several deworming treatments.

Loukutuspaikalla populaatiokissa Taika sai työnimekseen Kauniskasvo. Suloinen pienikokoinen tyttökissa hän onkin, arviolta noin 4-vuotias. Kauniiden kasvojen taakse kätkeytyi todella huonossa kunnossa ollut suu. Useita hampaita puuttui ja jäljellä olevatkin eläinlääkäri joutui poistamaan. Lisäksi Taika sairasti epäonnisen synnytyksen jälkeen kohtutulehduksen, mutta näistä toivuttuaan hän on voinut hyvin. Taika on arka, mutta uskaltautuu jo ruuan houkuttelemana liikkeelle, kun ihminen on samassa tilassa paikallaan. Aktiivinen lähestyminen saa hänet vielä pakenemaan. Hampaattomuus ei Taikan ruokahalua haittaa, pehmeät märkäruuat maistuvat hyvin. Häneltä sujuu hienosti myös hiekkalaatikolla asiointi. Korkeat paikat ovat Taikalle mieleisiä, päivällä hän usein päivystää kaapin päällä tai katselee ikkunasta raapimispuun ylätasolla. Yöllä vaikuttaisi olevan enemmän liikettä, lelutkin selkeästi vaihtavat paikkaa. Ihmisen läsnä ollessa leikkiminen on Taikalle vielä liian jännittävää. Populaatiokissana Taika on tottunut toisiin kissoihin lähiympäristössä, ja todennäköisesti hän hyötyisi uudessa kodissa ihmisiin luottavaisesti suhtautuvasta kissakaverista. Taika luovutetaan rokotettuna, sirutettuna, leikattuna ja FIV/FeLV-testattuna (negatiivinen). Hän on myös saanut useita loishäätöjä.

Frequently asked

Adopting Taika, Jyväskylä, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Taika, Jyväskylä?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Kissojensuojelu.fi handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Taika, Jyväskylä on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Taika, Jyväskylä if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Kissojensuojelu.fi 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Taika, Jyväskylä 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 Taika, Jyväskylä 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 Kissojensuojelu.fi early rather than rehoming privately; they know Taika, Jyväskylä 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 (FI). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically.
