Margo (Марго)

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

"Returning to Kyiv for the winter from the dacha. Here are two kittens, two sisters. Their mother was hit by a car. But it's not our cat and the kittens are not ours. They just came to us. We can't take them ourselves, what should we do?" Margot-young was so thin that without people she would have died before New Year. Thin legs and tail, sparse fur. Sometimes the kittens were given noodles and potatoes when they really asked to eat. When we gave them meat, the little one actually growled! The cat is very active, fast and brave. Margot-older looks like 6-7 months, calm and a bit confused. She has sad eyes. We believe that at home the cat will change! P.S. It would have been possible to just sterilize their mother and there wouldn't have been this story. We help with subsidized spaying of rural and dacha cats!

"Вертаємося до Києва на зиму з дачі. Тут бігає двоє кошенят, дві сестрички. Маму задавила машина. Але то не наша кішка і кошенята не наші. Просто прибилася. Собі взяти не можемо, то що з ними робити?" Марго-молодша була настільки худа, що без людей вона б померла ще до Нового року. Тоненькі лапки та хвостик, шерсть рідка. Іноді кошенятам кидали макарони та картоплю, коли вже дуже просили їсти. Коли ми дали м'яско, манюня аж гарчала! При тому киця дуже активна, швидка та смілива. Марго-старша виглядає на 6-7 місяців, спокійна та трохи розгублена. У неї сумні очі. Віримо, що вдома кішечка зміниться! P.S. А можна було просто стерилізувати їхню маму і не було б цієї історії. Ми допомагаємо з пільговою стерилізацією сільських та дачних кішок!

About Margo (Марго)

What life with Margo (Марго) looks like

Margo (Марго) is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Happy Paw Kyiv in Ukraine.

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 Ukraine

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 Margo (Марго), answered.

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