How do I contact the shelter about Houdini?

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 Houdini on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Houdini 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.

Is Houdini 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 Houdini 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 Houdini 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.

Houdini

Mixed Breed · Male · Kitten

ILLUSIONIST - MUSTKUNSTNIK - KUNSTPÕGENEJA HOUDINI Houdini (birth name unknown), is an Estonian illusionist and artist. We can say that Houdini began their journey at a very young age, showing signs of interest in magic as early as 2025, the year Houdini was born. Kiisupoiss Houdini arrived at Pesaleidja cat shelter on March 31, 2026, in Kuusalu. He did not perform any card tricks or other obvious magical illusions, but he managed to escape from our hidden escape-proof plexiglass box twice!! His clever escape tricks were a great help and a source of entertainment, but unfortunately, on the third attempt, Houdini believed too much in their own abilities and could not escape the box again. And thus, the great artist found their way to Pesaleidja. Houdini was naturally in awe of the place and tried to showcase their black art. Finally, the kiisu (cat) shelter was able to release them, and now they are waiting in the cat room, either by the windows or in front of their admirers. If you would like to adopt the artist Houdini, click the "I want to adopt this cat" button, fill out Pesaleidja's questionnaire, and we will get in touch with you. If you cannot adopt this precious cat but would like to become a father and cover their upkeep costs, read more about it HERE.

ILLUSIONIST - MUSTKUNSTNIK - KUNSTPÕGENEJA HOUDINI Houdini (sünninimi teadmata), on Eesti illusionist ja kunstpõgeneja. Saame öelda, et Houdini alustas oma teekonda tuntuseni väga noorelt - alles 2025. aastal sündinud kiisupoiss Houdini jõudis Pesaleidja kassituppa 31.03.2026 Liiapeksi külast, Kuusalust. Ta ei esitanud küll kaarditrikke ega muid harjumuspäraseid silmamoondusi, kuid vabastas end vilunult meie varjupaiga kinnisest püügipuurist suisa kahel korral!! Tema julged vabanemistrikid olid meile suureks lõbuks ja silmailuks vaadata, kuid paraku jäi Houdini kolmandal korral liialt oma ülivõimete kordumisse uskuma ning ei saanud enam puurist põgeneda. Ja nii sattus suur kunstnik Pesaleidjasse. Houdini oli loomulikult asjade sellisest käigust masenduses ning üritas ka meil oma mustkunsti katsetada. Lõpuks kiisu siiski loobus ning nüüd ootab ta kassitoas pesades või aknalaual peesitades oma ande austajaid. Kui tahaksid kunstnik Houdinile kodu pakkuda, siis kliki nupule "soovin seda loomakest", täida ära Pesaleidja küsimustik ja sinuga võetakse ühendust. Kui Sa ei saa seda armsat kassi endale adopteerida, aga sooviksid hakata ta vaderiks ja tasuda ta ülalpidamiskulud, siis loe lähemalt SIIT.

About Houdini

What life with Houdini looks like

Houdini is a puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Pesaleidja MTÜ in Pesaleidja.

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 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.
