Marilyn

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 11 years

Marilyn wurde von ihren früheren Besitzern zurückgelassen und sich selbst überlassen. Eine Nachbarin begann zwar, sie regelmässig zu füttern, doch um ihren gesundheitlichen Zustand kümmerte sich niemand. Als deutlich wurde, dass Marilyn an Ohren- bzw. Hautkrebs erkrankt war, fühlte sich niemand für sie verantwortlich. Auf wiederholte Nachfragen wurde lediglich mitgeteilt, dass man ohnehin nichts mehr für sie tun könne. Inzwischen befindet sich Marilyn in unserer Obhut. Sie erhält die medizinische Versorgung, die sie dringend benötigt, und wurde bereits operiert. Nun suchen wir für Marilyn ein liebevolles Zuhause, in dem sie ihren Lebensabend in Sicherheit, Geborgenheit und mit viel Zuneigung verbringen darf. Nach ihrer Genesung möchte Marilyn gerne wieder Freigang geniessen und die Möglichkeit haben, die Welt draussen zu erkunden. Wer schenkt dieser besonderen Katze die Chance auf einen schönen Neuanfang und einen glücklichen Lebensabend?

About Marilyn

What life with Marilyn looks like

Marilyn is a senior mixed breed cat waiting at Stiftung Tierschutzzentrum Thurgau in Switzerland.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇨🇭Adopting from Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.

Frequently asked

Adopting Marilyn, answered.

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