How do I contact the shelter about MARIA?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Lucas Dyrevern handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw MARIA on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt MARIA if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Lucas Dyrevern 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 MARIA 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 MARIA 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 Lucas Dyrevern early rather than rehoming privately; they know MARIA 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 (NO). 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.

MARIA

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

Sweet, social little Maria is looking for a calm home. 💗 Good, social, beautiful, little Maria is looking for a calm and patient home, preferably with a strong cat friend who can help her feel safe in new surroundings. Maria is a 4-year-old girl who is especially fond of affection and attention. But she is a very cautious soul who takes a long (!) time to feel safe. Maria is currently living with five others in a room set up for cats, and she is the one who comes running towards the foster mother for affection as soon as she hears the door. But when others come in, she hides. We have great confidence that Maria can become as tame with others who are in the foster home, as long as the new owner uses plenty of time and has patience. The foster mother is available with guidance along the way here. Since Maria has such great skepticism towards strangers, she is safest as an indoor cat. Contact us if you think Maria is the girl for you.

MARIA Gode, sosiale lille Maria søker et rolig hjem. 💗 Gode, sosiale, flotte, lille Maria søker et rolig og tålmodig hjem, gjerne med en stødig kattevenn som kan hjelpe henne å bli trygg i nye omgivelser. Maria er en jente på 4 år som er særdeles glad i kos og oppmerksomhet. Men hun er en veldig forsiktig sjel som bruker lang (!!) tid på å bli trygg. Maria bor nå med 5 andre i et rom tilrettelagt for katter, og hun er den som kommer trippende mot fostermor for kos så fort hun tar i døra. Men når andre kommer inn, gjemmer hun seg. Vi har stor tro på at Maria kan bli like tam mot andre som er i fosterhjemmet, så lenge ny eier bruker god tid og har tålmodighet. Fostermor er tilgjengelig med veiledning på veien her. Siden Maria har en så stor skepsis til ukjente, så er hun tryggest som inne-katt. Ta kontakt om du tenker at Maria er jenta for deg. Er hun det, har du fått en flott og lojal foralltidvenn🤍 Maria er ca 4 år og kom til oss fra en koloni på Eiganes i januar 2019

About MARIA

What life with MARIA looks like

MARIA is a large adult mixed breed cat waiting at Lucas Dyrevern in Stavanger.

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 Norway

Norwegian rescues require thorough background checks. Animals leave with a Nordic pet passport and full vetting. Norway is outside the EU so import rules differ slightly — TRACES applies.
