FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Where is Popopet located?
Popopet is in Oulu, Finland.
How many animals does Popopet have available for adoption?
Popopet currently has 5 animals listed on TailHarbor. That includes 5 cats. The inventory is refreshed daily from the shelter's own listing system.
How do I adopt an animal from Popopet?
Browse the available animals on this page and pick one you'd like to meet. Then contact Popopet directly using the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar — Popopet handles the adoption process, not TailHarbor. Finnish shelters require a home visit and an adoption contract. Animals are vetted; the EU pet passport covers cross-border travel within the bloc.
Can I adopt from Popopet 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. Popopet typically handles the vetting, chipping, and passport. The adopter coordinates the transport — common options include rescue networks (NGO-run road transport), professional pet-transport companies, "flight nannies" (volunteer in-cabin couriers), or self-drive pickups for shelters in neighbouring countries.
Is Popopet a verified shelter on TailHarbor?
Popopet 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 Popopet?
TailHarbor does not track adoption fees — they vary by animal and by shelter, and are set by Popopet directly. Typical fees in Finland cover the animal's pre-adoption veterinary care (sterilization, vaccinations, microchip, pet passport). Contact Popopet via the sidebar details for the exact fee for an animal you're interested in.
