Vickan

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

Vickan is a sweet girl, especially in the mornings when she misses the emergency shelter. She also likes to snuggle when it's mealtime. She is almost a smaller copy of her father Erik, as they both share the same sweetness. Vickan likes to be outside on the emergency shelter's enclosed yard and chase insects or play with Madeleine. They also like to chase each other and play around. When their energy runs out, they like to sleep together. Vickan also likes to chase laser pointers or strings on the floor. Vickan would like to move together with Madeleine. She is used to other cats and is looking for a home where she can have time to blossom and become completely secure.

​Vickan är en gosig tjej, speciellt på morgonen när hon tycker att det ska hända saker. Hon vill även gärna gosa lite när det är matdags. Hon är nästan en mindre kopia av sin pappa Erik, gosigheten är något de har gemensamt.Vickan har tidigare bott i ett akuthem och att vara på den innätade uteplatsen och jaga insekter var en favoritsysselsättning. Att busa med kompisen Madeleine är också kul. När energin tar slut sover de båda gärna tillsammans. Vickan gillar också att jaga pricken från en laserpekare eller snören på golvet.Vickan vill flytta tillsammans med Madeleine​. Hon är van vid andra katter och söker ett hem där hon får tid att blomma ut och bli helt trygg.

About Vickan

What life with Vickan looks like

Vickan is a 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 Vickan, answered.

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