Adopt Urho, Lempäälä (varattu)

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Urho is a 1-year-old cat looking for a new home. This affectionate and playful female has spent her life as the only cat in the home. In her first home, she hid on the first day, but quickly began enjoying the lively life of a young cat. She eats without any problems and handles the litter box well. Urho is cautious around the other cat in her first home, but she enjoys being petted and played with by people of different ages. However, she cannot stay still as a kitten. Urho is looking for a home primarily as the only cat in the house.

Read original (fi)

Urho on 1-vuotias kesy kodinvaihtaja. Tämä hellyydestä ja leikeistä nauttiva tyttökisu on viettänyt elämänsä kodin ainoana kissana. Ensikodissa se piiloutui ensimmäisen päivän, mutta alkoi nopeasti viettää nuoren kissan reipasta kotielämää. Ruoka maistuu ilman nirsoilua ja vessa-asiat sujuvat. Ensikodin toiseen kissaan Urho suhtautuu varautuneesti muristen. Ensikodin eri-ikäisten ihmisten leikitys ja rapsuttelut sen sijaan kelpaavat, mutta sylikissaksi hän ei malta seisahtua. Urho etsii kotia ensisijaisesti kodin ainoana kissana.

Frequently asked

Adopting Urho, Lempäälä (varattu), answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Urho, Lempäälä (varattu)?
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 Urho, Lempäälä (varattu) on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Urho, Lempäälä (varattu) 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Urho, Lempäälä (varattu) 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 Urho, Lempäälä (varattu) 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 Urho, Lempäälä (varattu) 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. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
