Ted

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

Ted was born and grew up in a dark basement under difficult conditions. He was caught in the fall of 2025. At first, he was timid and uncertain. Today, Ted is a lively and happy cat. He loves mischief and play, both on his own and with his foster mom. Food-loving and house-trained. Ted is a talkative cat with a variety of different shades in his language depending on what he wants to say. He's a very entertaining cat to be around. Still a bit skeptical about touch, but you can stroke him with a brush. It's possible to sit close to him. Ted can be a single cat or live with another cat that wants to play and have fun.

SV·Show original

5 juli, 2026 Ted föddes och växte upp i en mörk källare under svåra förhållanden. Han fångades in hösten 2025. Han var skygg och osäker till en början. Ted är idag en sprallig och glad katt. Älskar bus och lek både på egen hand och med stödhemsmatte. Matglad och rumsren. Ted är en pratsam katt med en mängd olika nyanser i sitt språk beroende på vad han vill säga. Han är en mycket underhållande katt att umgås med. Fortfarande lite skeptisk till beröring men man kan klappa honom med pensel. Det går att sitta nära honom. Ted kan vara ensamkatt eller leva med annan katt som vill busa och leka.

About Ted

What life with Ted looks like

Ted is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at HKK Kalmar in Sweden.

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 Sweden

Swedish shelters require an adoption application and home visit. Animals are chipped, vaccinated, and sterilized. Cross-border placements within the EU use the standard pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Ted, answered.

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