Marcel

Mixed Breed · Male · Kitten · 3 months

Manni külas was quite difficult to miss this group. Two female cats and six kittens following them formed a decent cat caravan. When the villagers started to worry more about the little ones, all six sons finally arrived at the shelter with their mother and grandmother. One of these sons was Marcel, and it quickly became clear within the shelter's walls that Marcel had no intention of staying away from any exciting activity. He is always there where something is happening. He jumps after a closed door with great enthusiasm and runs around with his siblings until the playfulness runs out. However, when a person has a free moment, Marcel is immediately there, climbs into your lap, and waits for his affection, which he responds to with loud purring. If the affection comes too slowly, Marcel gives a signal with his paw: "Hello, I came here with a definite purpose!" As brave and energetic as Marcel appears in the shelter, he is not always confident in every situation. When he ended up in the clinic, all his self-confidence disappeared like tin in the ashes, and the safest place for him seemed to be the corner behind the toilet. This shows that a strange place and an unexpected situation can cause a pretty good fright in him. However, in his familiar environment, he is a different boy, curious, playful, and always ready to see what happens next. It is not yet clear how Marcel will behave with new guests. Maybe it won't take long for him to start looking for a suitable place in the guest's lap, but it's just as likely that he will initially prefer to keep an eye on the situation from behind a piece of furniture. We will find out soon, but if you want to get to know Marcel better, please write to the shelter's email address and we will agree on a suitable time for the visit. Are you interested? Fill out the form and offer a home!

ET·Show original

Manni küla vahel oli üsna keeruline seda seltskonda mitte märgata. Kaks emast kassi ja kuus nende kannul jõlkuvat kassipoega moodustasid kokku paraja kassikaravani. Kui külarahvas hakkas pisikeste pärast rohkem muretsema, jõudsid kõik kuus poega koos ema ja vanaemaga lõpuks turvakoju. Üks nendest poegadest oli Marcel ja turvakodu seinte vahel selgus üsna kiiresti, et Marcelil ei ole mingit kavatsust ühestki põnevast tegemisest kõrvale jääda. Ta on alati seal, kus midagi toimub. Suletutile hüppab ta järele suure hooga ning õdede-vendadega müttab ringi seni, kuni mänguisu otsa saab. Kui inimesel tekib aga vaba hetk, on Marcel kohe kohal, ronib sülle ja ootab oma paiportsu, millele vastab valju nurrumisega. Kui pai liiga aeglaselt tulema hakkab, annab Marcel käpaga märku: „Halloo, ma tulin siia ikka kindla eesmärgiga!” Nii julge ja hakkaja nagu ta turvakodus paistab, ei ole Marcel igas olukorras sugugi. Kliinikusse sattudes oli kogu tema enesekindlus kadunud nagu tina tuhka ning kõige turvalisemaks paigaks tundus talle olevat hoopis vetsu tagune nurk. See näitab, et võõras koht ja ootamatu olukord võivad temas päris korraliku ehmatuse esile kutsuda. Oma tuttavas keskkonnas on ta aga hoopis teine poiss, uudishimulik, mänguhimuline ja alati valmis vaatama, mis järgmisena toimub. Kuidas Marcel uute külalistega käitub, pole veel päris teada. Võib-olla ei lähe tal kaua, kuni ta juba uurib külalise süles sobivat kohta, aga sama hästi võib juhtuda, et esialgu eelistab ta mõne mööblieseme tagant olukorral silma peal hoida. Seda saame aga peagi teada, kui soovid Marceliga lähemalt tuttavaks saada. Selleks kirjuta palun turvakodu meiliaadressile ning lepime külastamiseks sobiva aja kokku. Tekkis huvi?

About Marcel

What life with Marcel looks like

Marcel is a puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Gabrieli Loomade Elu MTÜ in Estonia.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Marcel, answered.

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