Iljo

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

Ilja was found in a remote area on Vransko, at the edge of a forest near the highway. He lay on logs, far from the nearest houses and farms. We do not know how he got there. Ilja is an adult friendly cat who enjoys human company. SPECIAL FEATURES: • suitable for people without experience with cats • extremely affectionate and friendly to humans • seeks a home indoors with access to outdoor space Due to the constant need for taking in new homeless cats, you can help us greatly by providing temporary accommodation. Temporary guardianship is a form of volunteer work where you offer accommodation to any of our cats that have been waiting for a new home for some time. The temporary guardian provides a safe environment, space, time and love, while we take care of all the costs related to the wards. Including covering all veterinary expenses. If you can lend a helping hand, we are always available for more information: You can also become his godfather. With a monthly contribution according to your means, you help cover the costs of food, veterinary care and everything your ward needs. As a thank you, you will also receive newsletters about her life and progress. Learn more about the Godparent program here: You can also help with the care by donating part of your income tax (1%), which does not cost you anything at all.

Ilja smo našli na odročnem kraju na Vranskem, na robu gozda tik ob avtocesti. Ležal je na hlodih, daleč od najbližjih hiš in kmetij. Kako je prišel tja, ne vemo. Gre za odraslega prijaznega mačka, ki rad išče človeško bližino. POSEBNOSTI: • primeren za osebe, ki nimajo izkušenj z mucami • izjemno cartljiv in prijazen do ljudi • išče notranji dom z možnostjo izhodov v zunanje okolje Zaradi nenehnih potreb po sprejemanju novih brezdomnih muc nam lahko zelo pomagate tudi z začasno namestitvijo. Začasno skrbništvo je oblika prostovoljnega dela, kjer ponudite namestitev katerikoli izmed naših muc, ki že dlje časa čakajo na nov dom. Začasni skrbnik poskrbi za varno okolje, prostor, čas in ljubezen, mi pa poskrbimo za vse stroške v povezavi z varovanci. Vključno s kritjem vseh veterinarskih stroškov. V kolikor lahko priskočite na pomoč, smo vedno na voljo za več informacij: Postanete lahko tudi njegov boter. Z mesečnim prispevkom po svojih zmožnostih pomagate kriti stroške hrane, veterinarske oskrbe in vsega, kar vaš varovanec potrebuje. V zahvalo boste prejemali tudi novičke o njenem življenju in napredku. Več o programu Botrstvo in prijavi najdete tukaj: Pri njegovi oskrbi nam lahko pomagate tudi z namenitvijo dela dohodnine (1%), ki pa vas ne stane popolnoma nič.

About Iljo

What life with Iljo looks like

Iljo is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Zavod Muri in Vransko.

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 Slovenia

Slovenian shelters follow EU pet passport requirements rigorously and coordinate with Italian, Austrian, and German rescue partners. Animals are fully vetted before leaving.

Frequently asked

Adopting Iljo, answered.

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