Markiza (Маркіза)

Mixed Breed · Female · Kitten

Marquise 5 months, small cat, who was thrown out in the cold on the street. Such a nicely dressed kitten, delicate, home cat. She did not understand what happened. She ran after everyone. She looked into their eyes. She asked for help. People walked past. It was very cold. She was so cold that her paws would not obey. She was hungry. Weak. She was just trying to survive. Home, small kitten - in winter in the middle of the street. They picked her up for foster care to warmth, but they can't keep her anymore and she will be back on the street again. No one is asking about her. She is very good. Very gentle. From those cats that press their forehead against your hand and freeze at every touch. She seems to want to communicate with a person and is afraid that they will take her out again... and leave her. The kitten is clean, goes to the litter box properly. Absolutely home. Problem-free. She doesn't need much. Just a quiet, kind person. One who won't betray her. Please... look at her with your heart. She has already survived the cold, hunger, betrayal and loneliness. She already knows what betrayal is. Let her finally learn what love is.

Маркіза 5 місяців, маленька кішечка, яку викинули в мороз на вулицю. Таку нарядну крсуню, тендітну, домашню кішечку. Вона не розуміла, що сталося. Бігла за кожним. Заглядала в очі. Просила про допомогу. А люди проходили повз. Було дуже холодно. Вона мерзла так, що лапки не слухались. Була голодна. Слабка. Вона просто намагалася вижити. Домашнє, мале кошеня — взимку серед вулиці. Її підібрали на перетримку до тепла, далі утримувати немає можливості і знову вулиця( За неї ніхто не питає. Вона дуже хороша. Дуже ніжна. З тих кішечок, що тулиться лобиком до руки й завмирає від кожного дотику.. Вона ніби хоче домовитися з людиною і боїться, що її знову винесуть… і залишать. Котуся охайна, справно ходить на лоточок. Абсолютно домашня. Безпроблемна. Їй не потрібне багато. Тільки тиха, добра людина. Та, що не зрадить. Будь ласка…Подивіться на неї серцем. Вона вже пережила холод, голод, зраду і самотність. Вона вже знає, що таке зрада. Нехай нарешті дізнається, що таке любов.

About Markiza (Маркіза)

What life with Markiza (Маркіза) looks like

Markiza (Маркіза) is a puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Happy Paw Kyiv in Ukraine.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇺🇦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 Markiza (Маркіза), answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Markiza (Маркіза)?
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 Markiza (Маркіза) on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Markiza (Маркіза) 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 Markiza (Маркіза) 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 Markiza (Маркіза) 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 Markiza (Маркіза) 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.
