Umbra

Female

Umbra was found with her siblings, where they most likely had to survive on their own during their first year of life. They have probably never been near humans before. But Umbra is beginning to understand that humans are not as dangerous as she first thought. She is making great progress. Umbra will be spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and insured in Sweden when adopted.

SV·Show original

Umbra fångades in med sina syskon där de troligtvis fått klara sig på egen tass sitt första levnadsår. De har troligtvis aldrig varit i närheten av människor innan. Men Umbra börjar förstå att människor inte är så farliga som hon först trodde. Hon gör fina framsteg. Umbra kommer vid adoption vara kastrerad, vaccinerad, chippad och försäkrad i Svedea.

About Umbra

What life with Umbra looks like

Umbra is a adult cat waiting at Djurens Vanner Goteborg 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 Umbra, answered.

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