Can I adopt from Bergslagens Katthem if I live in another country?
Yes. Cross-border adoption within the EU is straightforward thanks to the EU pet passport system. The animal needs to be at least 15 weeks old, microchipped to ISO 11784/11785, and have a valid rabies vaccination administered at least 21 days before travel. Bergslagens Katthem typically handles the vetting, chipping, and passport.

Is Bergslagens Katthem a verified shelter on TailHarbor?
Bergslagens Katthem is listed on TailHarbor based on data scraped from their own website, but TailHarbor has not yet manually verified the shelter's contact details. We recommend confirming details directly with the shelter before travelling for an adoption visit.
What is the adoption fee at Bergslagens Katthem?
TailHarbor does not track adoption fees — they vary by animal and by shelter, and are set by Bergslagens Katthem directly. Typical fees in Sweden cover the animal's pre-adoption veterinary care (sterilization, vaccinations, microchip, pet passport). Contact Bergslagens Katthem via the sidebar details for the exact fee for an animal you're interested in.
