How do I contact the shelter about Tipsija?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Labās Mājas handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Tipsija on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Tipsija if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Labās Mājas 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 Tipsija 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 Tipsija 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 Labās Mājas early rather than rehoming privately; they know Tipsija 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 (LV). 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.

Tipsija

Female · Young · 2 years

In April, the Food and Veterinary Service confiscated 27 cats from an apartment in Riga, where they had been living in their own waste for a long time. The animals belonged to a breeder who was once officially registered and seemingly responsible, but over the years, something had changed - the living conditions for the animals had become catastrophic, and their number had become abnormal. The apartment also contained dead animals - dogs, ornamental birds... The owner of the dark, even rich brown coat, a British breed cat, behaves in the shelter as an interested but timid mince. In other words, Tipsy will curiously watch you, but as soon as you reach for her - she will run away! Most likely, the pretty girl must finally find her people, who will become the only, most beloved and most beautiful princess in the world, so she can blossom in complete trust and confidence. Living in a cat pack allows the mince to hide safely behind her fellow clan members, ignoring people. Adoptable in a family without young children and with experience in caring for cats.

Aprīlī no kāda dzīvokļa Rīgā Pārtikas un veterinārais dienests konfiscēja 27 kaķus, kuri ilgstoši bija dzīvojuši paši savos mēslos. Dzīvnieki piederēja kādai savulaik oficiāli reģistrētai un it kā atbildīgai audzētājai, taču pēdējos gados kaut kas bija mainījies – dzīvniekiem nodrošinātie dzīves apstākļi bija kļuvuši katastrofāli, turklāt to skaits kļuvis anormāls. Dzīvoklī tika atrasti arī miruši kustoņi – suņi, dekoratīvie putni… Tumši, pat sulīgi brūnā kažoka nēsātāja, Britu šķirnes kaķenīte patversmē izpaužas kā ieinteresēta, taču tramīga mince. Proti, Tipsija ziņkārīgi jūs vēros, bet, līdzko stiepsiet roku viņas virzienā – spurgs projām! Visticamāk, smukulei beidzot dzīvē jāatrod savi cilvēki, kuriem kļūt par vienīgo, vismīļāko un visskaistāko princesi uz šīs pasaules, lai viņa spētu atplaukt pilnīgā paļāvībā un uzticībā. Dzīvošana kaķu barā mincei ļauj droši slēpties aiz ciltsbrāļiem, cilvēku ignorējot. Adoptējama ģimenē bez maziem bērniem un ar pieredzi kaķu aprūpē.
