Charlotte

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 9 years

CHARLOTTE IS LOOKING FOR A PATIENT FRIEND! When Charlotte arrived at Pesaleidja, she already had 6 kittens. The litter was found in Saku parish, in Üksnurme village, and was taken into Pesaleidja's care in 2019. We actually don't know Charlotte's exact age, but she was probably born in 2017. She has short fur with a low coat, but a nice round brown striped pattern. Charlotte is friendly by nature, but is cautious of new people, so don't be surprised if an unexpected movement during the first meeting startles her or if she watches you suspiciously from behind the person's back. That's why Charlotte is looking for a home with a patient friend who is willing to give her space and time to adjust. With people she knows, she is braver and gladly shares her living room, sometimes even sitting next to a person. She definitely isn't a cat that can be picked up immediately. She will definitely let you know when the day's food bowl is full, and also walks around the apartment when it becomes clear that the food bowl needs filling. And be prepared to wait a bit, as she may meow a little towards you when you come in very late at night because you forgot yourself for too long in the office. Although at the foster home, Charlotte has lived with both cats and dogs, she prefers cats or quiet solitude. From the curious dog girl who was the real resident of the foster home, she walks away in a wide arc and watches her from above. Upon entering the foster home, Charlotte didn't dare to play - the concept of play was simply foreign to her as a street cat. Time has passed, but now she understands the spirit of fluffy toys, balls, and crinkling paper bags very well. Sometimes she zooms around the room with her own flying carpet. Charlotte uses the litter box properly (she seems to prefer a covered litter box, as it is somehow safer and more secure). She is microchipped, spayed, and has received regular parasite treatment. Due to previously appearing bladder problems, Charlotte apparently needs lifelong special food, luckily this does not prevent her from enjoying a good cat life despite her old health issues. Also, her regular vet visits have shown that her condition is always stable and all tests are normal. It is worth considering this if there is already a real resident in the family, so that food bowls do not get mixed up. Since Charlotte has a past that has left a deep mark on her, we are looking for only the best home for her - one that will be with her forever, with a person who is willing to deal with a friendly, but somewhat shy cat and give her time to adjust. To get to know Charlotte, you need to complete the Pesaleidja pet adoption questionnaire by clicking the green button "I want to adopt this animal".

CHARLOTTE OTSIB KANNATLIKKU SÕPRA! Kui Charlotte Pesaleidjasse jõudis, siis oli tal juba 6 poega. Pesakond leiti Saku vallast, Üksnurme külast ning kolis Pesaleidja hoole alla juba 2019. aastal. Charlotte täpset vanust me tegelikult ei tea, aga ilmselt on ta sündinud 2017. aastal. Ta on kirjude sokkidega madala turjaga, aga armsalt ümar pruunikas triibik. Charlotte on iseloomult sõbralik, kuid uusi inimesi pelgab, seega ära üllatu, kui esimesel kohtumisel - kogemata tehtud - äkiline käeliigutus teda ehmatab või ta sind eriti kahtlustaval pilgul hoiuinimese selja tagant piilub. Seetõttu otsibki Charlotte kodu kannatliku sõbraga, kes on valmis andma talle ruumi ja aega harjumiseks. Juba tuttavate inimestega on ta julgem ja jagab hea meelega ka oma diivaniruumi, istudes mõnikord isegi külg vastu inimest. Ta kindlasti ei ole kass, kelle saaks kohe sülle haarata. Päevase paide limiidi täis saamisest annab ta sulle ka kindlasti teada, samamoodi hõikab ta üle korteri, kui selgub, et toidukauss vajab täitmist. Ja tasub oodata, et ta toriseb natuke su pihta, kui astud väga hilja õhtul korteriuksest sisse, sest unustasid ennast liiga kauaks kontorisse. Kuigi hoiukodus on Charlotte elanud nii kasside kui koertega, siis ta eelistab kasse või õndsat üksindust. Hoiukodu päriselanikust uudishimulikust koeratüdrukust kõnnib ta kauge kaarega mööda ja vaatleb teda kõrgustest. Hoiukodusse saabudes ei osanud Charlotte mängida - mängimise konsept lihtsalt oli - tänavakassina - tema jaoks võõras. Aega on läinud, aga nüüd mõistab ta karvaste mänguhiirte, pallide ja krabisevate kommipaberite hingeelu päris hästi. Mõnikord zoomib ta ka oma koduse lendava vaibaga mööda tuba. Charlotte kasutab korralikult liivakasti (ta näib eelistavat katusega liivakasti, sest see on vist kuidagi turvalisem, kindlam). Ta on kiibistatud, steriliseeritud ning saanud regulaarselt parasiiditõrjet. Seoses varem ilmnenud sapipõie probleemiga vajab Charlotte ilmselt elu lõpuni ravitoitu, õnneks ei takista see vana tervisemure teda head kassielu elamast. Ka tema regulaarsed arstivisiidid on andnud märku, et tema seisund on igati stabiilne ja kõik proovid korras. Küllaga tasub seda arvesse võtta, kui peres peaks juba mõni päriselanik ees olema, et toidukausid segi ei läheks. Kuna Charlottel on selja taga minevik, mis on temasse väga sügava jälje jätnud, siis otsime talle vaid parimat kodu - selle igavesti tema inimesega, kes on valmis tegelema sõbraliku, kuid veidi kartliku kassiga ning andma talle harjumiseks aega. Charlottega tutvumiseks pead täitma Pesaleidja loomasoovija küsimustiku vajutades rohelisele nupule "Soovin seda loomakest".

About Charlotte

What life with Charlotte looks like

Charlotte is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at Pesaleidja MTÜ in Pesaleidja.

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 Estonia

The shelter typically completes the animal's vaccinations, microchipping, and pet passport before adoption. Specific fees and process details vary by shelter and country — confirm directly via the contact details in the sidebar.

Frequently asked

Adopting Charlotte, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Charlotte?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Pesaleidja MTÜ handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Charlotte on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Charlotte if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Pesaleidja MTÜ 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Charlotte 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 Charlotte 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 Pesaleidja MTÜ early rather than rehoming privately; they know Charlotte 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 (ET). 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.
