Adopt Hera

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Heracleum foster home finding mission turned out to be a critical task… He would have enjoyed a healthy life for 1.5 months in a foster home, but his arrival was meant to be different… On March 25, 2025, he arrived at Vikerra, and he did not eat anymore, losing all weight… In January, February, and early March, he stayed in the clinic and received care, but unfortunately, the outcome was not promising. In January's health report, the statement was: In the ultra-low helium environment of about 0.18 cm, Hera was FeLv 'positive' and seemed to be growing a tumor, which today created a situation where it was necessary to let Heral go. The signs were so alarming that we achieved a victory with Aranespi treatment, but we had to acknowledge the loss in the battle with the disease. R.I.P. dear Hera. The suffering is immense, but there was nothing more we could do… On February 26, 2021, a black feline arrived from Pammast into the shelter, the entire colony having perished due to the toiter's illness. Arriving wild, now she has adapted to human companionship. She loves being pet and groomed, and her reactions to these actions are quite strong 😊 She has been spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, and received regular parasite treatment. Hera will go to a home with a lease and a foster care agreement. For those interested, please fill out the survey available here: If you are interested, write us a message on Facebook messenger or call 58370708. We look forward to seeing you at Herale! We cannot change the whole world, but we can make a difference in one life's journey, and that is what we aim to do for this kitty.

Herale hoiukodu leidmine osutuski kahjuks võimatuks missiooniks… Ta oleks tervelt 1.5 kuud saanud tunda hellitatud kodukassi elu, saatus tahtis aga teisiti… 25.03.2025 LÄKS HERA VIKERKAARELE ta ei söönud enam, kaotas jällegi kaalu… Jaanuaris, veebruaris ja ka veel märtsi algul kliinikus tilgal viibimine ja ravi kahjuks tulemust ei andnud. Jaanuari haigusloos oli lause: Ultraheliuuring keskkõhus ca 0,18 cmuudismoodustis Hera oli FeLv ´positiivne ja ilmselt toimetas tema sees kasvaja, mis tänaseks tekitas olukorra, et aus oli Heral minna lasta. Neerunäidud nii hullud ei olnud ja aneemiast saime ka Aranespi süstimisega võitu, paraku selle va sõralisega võitlemisel pidime tunnistama kaotust. R.I.P armas Hera. Hing on ääretult haige, aga rohkem ei olnud meie võimuses… 26.02.2021 koos kaaslastega Pammast turvakodusse jõudnud must emane kassike, kogu seltskond jäid toitja surma tõttu ripakile. Turvakodusse jõudes metsik, nüüdseks inimesega harjunud. Armastab pai ja kammimist, nende toimingutega vallandub tugev nurr 🙂 Steriliseeritud, kiibitud, vaktsineeritud, saanud regulaarselt parasiiditõrjet. Koju läheb Hera lepingu ja loovutustasuga, huvilistel tuleb eelnevalt täita ankeet, mille leiab siit: Huvi korral kirjuta , saada sõnum FB messengeri või hoopis helista 58370708. Lepi kokku aeg ja tule Herale külla! Me ei suuda muuta kogu maailma, ühe elu keerdkäikude tõttu kodutuks jäänud kassi oma aga küll.

About Hera

What life with Hera looks like

Hera is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at MTÜ Saaremaa Lemmikloomade Turvakodu in Kuressaare.

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 Hera, answered.

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