Valentino

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

On May 1, 2026, Valentino was found with several cats at a collector's in Rockneby. When he arrived at his foster home, he was small and thin and sat in the corner with big eyes. He stayed in his corner for a week before he dared to come forward. In the foster home, he is now called Booben and is the world's coziest, sweetest cat. He wants to be with you everywhere and if he doesn't get attention, he makes sure to get it. He lies as close as possible and loves to give out little nuzzles. He loves to play fetch with his favorite ball. If you throw it, he comes back with it just as fast. He doesn't say no to cat treats, but he also likes to explore what's on your own plate. He would really like to move in with his friend Versace. Unfortunately, he doesn't get along with my own cats.

1 maj, 2026 Valentino fångades in med flera katter hos en samlare Rockneby. När han kom till sitt stödhem var han liten o smal och satt i hörnet med stora ögon. Han satt i sitt hörn i en vecka innan han vågade komma fram. Han världens mysigaste, keligaste katt. Han vill vara med överallt och får han inte uppmärksamhet ser han till att få det. Han ligger så nära det bara går och gillar att ge ut pussar. Han kommer bli din bästa vän. Han älskar att leka apport med sin favorit boll. Kastar du iväg den så kommer han tillbaka med den lika snabbt. Han tackar inte nej till kattgodis, men utforskar gärna vad som finns på din egna tallrik. Han vill gärna flytta med sin kompis Versace. Vill gärna har möjlighet till att gå ut i tex en rastgård. Går tyvärr inte ihop med mina egna katter.

About Valentino

What life with Valentino looks like

Valentino is a large 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 Valentino, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Valentino?
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 Valentino on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Valentino 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 Valentino 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 Valentino 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 Valentino 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.
