How do I contact the shelter about Maria?

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 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 — 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 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 Varjupaikade MTÜ 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 (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.

Maria

Mixed Breed · Female

Maria is a kind and calm cat who has been surrendered to a shelter and is now patiently waiting for her forever home. Initially, Maria keeps to herself and observes the surroundings calmly. She needs some time to get used to her new environment and people, but she already allows petting. As trust develops, she will surely reveal more of her personality. Maria gets along well with other cats, especially those who are calm and non-dominant. Maria needs someone who is willing to give her time and build trust slowly. In return, her reserved nature will reveal a very loving and kind-hearted cat. Maria is microchipped, vaccinated, spayed, and has received parasite treatment. Her further care is possible thanks to donations. Please support her wait for a home at Pärnu Shelter. You can leave any amount in the "Donate to an animal" box. Maria thanks!

ET·Show original

Maria on heatahtlik ja rahuliku loomuga kassipreili, kes on varjupaika loovutatud ning ootab nüüd kannatlikult oma päris kodu. Esialgu hoiab Maria pigem omaette ja jälgib rahulikult toimuvat kõrvalt. Ta vajab uue inimese ja keskkonnaga harjumiseks veidi aega, kuid pai lubab ta endale juba praegu kenasti teha. Usalduse tekkides võib temas kindlasti veel palju rohkemat avastada. Maria saab hästi läbi ka teiste kassidega, eriti nendega, kes on rahuliku loomuga ega kipu domineerima. Maria vajab endale inimest, kes on valmis talle aega andma ja rahulikult usaldust kasvatama. Vastutasuks võib tema tagasihoidliku oleku tagant välja tulla üks väga armas ja hea südamega kass. Maria on kiibitud, vaktsineeritud, steriliseeritud ja saanud parasiiditõrje. Maria edasine ülalpidamine on võimalik tänu annetustele. Palun toeta tema kodu ootust Pärnu varjupaigas. Endale sobiva summa saab jätta "Anneta loomale" kastis. Maria tänab !

About Maria

What life with Maria looks like

Maria is a 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
