Marill

Mixed Breed · Female

Meet Marill. She is a very gentle little soul who would suit a mature person, a couple, or a family with older children who understand that good things take time. She needs a patient, loving home where she can settle in at her own pace and discover that humans aren’t so scary after all. She enjoys the company of other cats and loves playtime, especially when fishing-rod toys are involved! And if you really want to win her heart, there’s one little secret: lick treats. The way to Marill’s heart is definitely through her tummy! Marill is still a tiny bit shy, but she is making amazing progress every day. With a little patience, kindness, and plenty of tasty treats, this sweet girl has so much love and trust waiting to blossom. Could you be the one to help Marill’s heart grow a little bigger? Marill is ready to find her forever home. She is spayed, litter trained, microchipped, vaccinated, and wormed. Cat Adoption Application DAFM No KPT 200001C

About Marill

What life with Marill looks like

Marill is a very small adult mixed breed cat waiting at Laois SPCA in Portlaoise, Co. Laois.

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 Ireland

Irish shelters require a home check (often phone or video) and an adoption contract. Animals are vaccinated, chipped, and registered. Cross-border placements to mainland Europe require the rabies titer test (TRACES system).

Frequently asked

Adopting Marill, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Marill?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Laois SPCA handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Marill on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Marill if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Laois SPCA 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Marill 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 Marill 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 Laois SPCA early rather than rehoming privately; they know Marill 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 (EN). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically.
