Ulrik

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Ulrik was found on the outskirts of Uppsala together with her four siblings. Ulrik is a cautious but also very curious young male cat. Her curiosity is growing more and more, and she is one of the first to come forward when food, play, or rest is available. She is still shy in contact with humans but with the help of fun toys she dares to come closer and at the same time forgets her shyness. If offered a play session, she has a hard time staying still and all her focus is on catching the toy. Ulrik is looking for a home where she can have a cat companion. With some time and patience, she will definitely become completely secure.

Ulrik är en försiktig men samtidigt mycket nyfiken ung hankatt. Hans nyfikenhet tar allt mer plats och han är en av de första att komma fram när det vankas mat, lek eller rast. Han är fortfarande blyg i kontakten med människan men med hjälp av roliga leksaker vågar han komma allt närmre och glömmer samtidigt bort sin blyghet. Erbjuds en lekstund har han svårt att vara still och allt fokus hamnar på att fånga leksaken.Ulrik söker ett hem där han får sällskap av en kattkompis. Med lite tid och tålamod kommer han garanterat bli helt trygg.Ulrik blev upphittad i utkanten av Uppsala tillsammans med sina syskon.

About Ulrik

What life with Ulrik looks like

Ulrik is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Uppsala Katthem in Uppsala.

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 Ulrik, answered.

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