Vinca ja Taxus

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Vinca and Taxus are a lovely pair of cats that need a new home. They came from the same house, are good friends with each other, and are very tame. The Siamese Vinca is 5 years old and energetic in nature, and likes to chase whatever toy she can. However, she settles down to lie on your feet and craves petting. Taxus is 7 years old and half Maine Coon, which makes him a really big cat. He is shy at first, but once he gets used to his new home, he will curl up next to you and loves especially rubbing his belly. Vinca and Taxus need a big home with plenty of space to play and places to hide if they get scared. The home must be patient with both of them, as Taxus may be under the sofa or bed at first. It would also be good if there were no small children in the household, as the cats do not get along well with them. Both are healthy and have good teeth. Vinca, however, has a very sensitive stomach and gobbles up her food easily, which leads to vomiting. With the right amount of food and rhythm, vomiting is fortunately rare. If you could offer Vinca and Taxus a safe and loving home, fill out the adoption application carefully. We will process and respond only to applications that are filled out carefully.

Vinca ja Taxus ovat ihana kissapari, jotka tarvitsevat nyt uutta kotia. He ovat tulleet samassa kodista, ovat hyviä kavereita keskenään ja erittäin kesyjä. Siiamilainen Vinca on 5-vuotias ja luonteeltaan energinen ja tykkää jahdata milloin mitäkin lelua. Hän kuitenki rauhoittuu makaamaan jalkojen päälle ja havittelee rapsutuksia. Taxus on 7-vuotias ja puoliksi Maine Coon, eli todella iso kissa. Hän on alkuun ujompi, mutta uuteen kotiin totuttua kellahtaa viereen ja rakastaa etenkin vatsan silitystä. Vinca ja Taxus tarvitsevat ison kodin, jossa on paljon tilaa leikkiä ja paikkoja minne piiloutua, jos pelko iskee. Kodissa on oltava kärsivällinen molempien kanssa sillä Taxus saattaa alkupäivinä olla vain sohvan tai sängyn alla. Kiipeilypaikkoja on myös hyvä olla sillä Vinca rakastaa kiipeillä korkealle. Olisi hyvä jos taloudessa ei olisi pieniä lapsia, sillä kissat eivät tule hyvin toimeen heidän kanssan. Molemmat ovat perusterveitä ja suut ovat hyvässä kunnossa. Vincalla on kumminkin hyvin herkkä vatsa ja hän hotkii helposti ruokansa, joka johtaa oksenteluun. Oikean annosmäärään, ruoan ja rytmin kanssa oksentelu on onneksi vähäistä. Jos sinulla voisi olla tarjota Vincalle ja Taxusille turvallinen ja rakastava koti, täytä adoptiohakemus huolellisesti. Käsittelemme ja vastaamme vain huolellisesti täytettyihin hakemuksiin.

About Vinca ja Taxus

What life with Vinca ja Taxus looks like

Vinca ja Taxus is a large adult mixed breed cat waiting at Kissojen Katastrofiyhdistys KKY ry in Tampere.

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 Finland

Finnish shelters require a home visit and an adoption contract. Animals are vetted; the EU pet passport covers cross-border travel within the bloc.

Frequently asked

Adopting Vinca ja Taxus, answered.

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