Adopt Kustiina

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

Kustiina (with the domestic name Kusti) came to us from a cat colony, which the person could no longer maintain and wanted to hand over to the animal shelter. Now this kitten can receive the necessary care and attention at the animal shelter. Kustiina is still shy, but still shows interest in communicating with people and is actually friendly.

Kustiina (koduse nimega Kusti) jõudis meie juurde kassikolooniast, mille ülalpidamisega inimene enam toime ei tulnud ning soovis kassid varjupaigale üle anda. Nüüd saab see kiisuke varjupaigas vajalikku ravi ja hoolt. Kustiina on veel pelglik, ent siiski tunneb inimesega suhtlemise vastu huvi ja on tegelikult sõbralik.

About Kustiina

What life with Kustiina looks like

Kustiina is a medium-sized adult mixed breed cat waiting at Varjupaikade MTÜ in Tallinn.

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 Kustiina, answered.

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