How do I contact the shelter about Yuki?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Katzenhaus-Freunde handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Yuki on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Yuki if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Katzenhaus-Freunde 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 Yuki 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 Yuki 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 Katzenhaus-Freunde early rather than rehoming privately; they know Yuki 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 (DE). 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.

Yuki

Mixed Breed Cat · Male · Kitten · 4 months

Uki is a playful, affectionate boy. He is the brother of Kumo and Sahaba. Of the three, he trusts humans the most, sometimes allowing himself to be touched and petted, but finds the whole thing confusing and takes a step back. He is also very playful, both with humans and his siblings, and can entertain himself well. Currently, he is passionate about soccer and enthusiastically chases small fabric balls across the room. The three are generally still quite reserved with humans - they love playing with different toys, but direct contact with humans is (still) suspicious to them. They will need some time to fully trust humans. As they age, the three also enjoy playing together often and love climbing on everything when they are not sleeping together. Cat visit / adoption Calliope's Kitten History Calliope was spotted with her kittens on an abandoned farm. The attentive neighbors noticed the small cat family and asked for our help. Calliope has since been spayed. Judging by the kittens' social behavior, they were probably born in the wild and had no previous direct contact with humans. Calliope has several small scars from previous injuries (small cut on the right hind paw, punctual wounds on the back), which have since healed well. We are looking for new homes for the group with outdoor access in the countryside with a cat door. The siblings are preferred to be adopted together (two or three). The four are currently also listed in the STMZ Calliope Kumo Sahaba Yuki

uki ist ein verspielter, lieber Junge. Er ist der Bruder von Kumo und Sahaba. Von den dreien traut er Menschen am meisten, lässt sich teils auch anfassen und streicheln, aber findet das Ganze dann doch sehr verwirrend und geht wieder auf Abstand. Er ist auch sehr verspielt, sowohl mit Menschen als auch seinen Geschwistern, und kann sich auch tip top alleine unterhalten. Zurzeit ist er ein leidenschaftlicher Fussballer und jagt begeistert kleine Stoffbälle quer durchs Zimmer. Die drei sind allgemein noch relativ zurückhaltend mit Menschen - sie lieben es zwar, wenn man mit ihnen mit verschiedenen Spielzeugen spielt, aber direkter Kontakt mit Menschen ist ihnen (noch) suspekt. Sie werden noch etwas Zeit brauchen, um volles Vertrauen in Menschen zu fassen. Dem Alter entsprechend spielen die drei auch gerne und oft miteinander und lieben es, auf allem herumzuklettern, wenn sie nicht gerade beieinander schlafen. Katze besuchen / adoptieren Geschichte der Gruppe Calliope's Kitten Calliope wurde zusammen mit ihren Kitten auf einem verlassenen Bauernhof gesichtet. Die aufmerksamen Nachbarn bemerkten die kleine Katzenfamilie und baten uns um Hilfe. Calliope wurde inzwischen durch uns kastriert. Dem Sozialverhalten der Kitten nach zu urteilen, wurden sie wahrscheinlich in der Wildnis geboren und hatten bisher noch keinen direkten Kontakt zu Menschen. Calliope hat mehrere kleine Narben von früheren Verletzungen (kleine Schnittwunde an der rechten hinteren Pfote, punktuelle Wunden am Rücken), welche jedoch inzwischen gut verheilt sind. Wir suchen für die Gruppe neue Zuhause mit Freigang im Grünen mit Katzentür. Die Geschwister werden bevorzugt zusammen (zu zweit oder dritt) vermittelt. Die vier sind derzeit auch noch in der STMZ ausgeschrieben Calliope Kumo Sahaba Yuki

About Yuki

What life with Yuki looks like

Yuki is a puppy/kitten mixed breed cat cat waiting at Katzenhaus-Freunde in Zürich region.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇨🇭Adopting from Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.
