Markus (Маркус)

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

Marcus, 3 years old. Looking for his real family 🤍 Marcus was found in one of the courtyards in Kyiv. Skinny and scared, he hid under cars and tried to survive on the street. It seems he once knew what a home was, but ended up on the street. Now Marcus is cautious around people and needs time to learn to trust again. Marcus has immunodeficiency, but that doesn't take away his right to a home, care, and love. He deserves a family that will accept him as he is 🐾 Neutered, vaccinated, treated for parasites. Knows the litter box. We really want to find Marcus a real family this time. One where he won't be betrayed, where he can sleep warm and gradually open his heart. Maybe you will be his person? ❤️ Call: -04

Маркус, 3 роки. Шукає свою справжню сім’ю 🤍 Маркуса знайшли в одному з київських дворів. Худенький, наляканий, він ховався під автівками й намагався вижити на вулиці. Схоже, колись він знав, що таке дім, але опинився на вулиці. Тепер Маркус обережно ставиться до людей і йому потрібен час, щоб знову навчитися довіряти. У Маркуса імунодефіцит, але це не забирає в нього права на власний дім, турботу й любов. Він заслуговує на сім’ю, яка прийме його таким, як він є 🐾 Кастрований, вакцинований, оброблений від паразитів. Лоточок знає. Ми дуже хочемо знайти для Маркуса цього разу справжню сім’ю. Ту, де його більше не зрадять, де він зможе спокійно спати в теплі й поступово відкривати своє серце. Можливо, саме ви станете його людиною? ❤️ Телефонуйте: -04

About Markus (Маркус)

What life with Markus (Маркус) looks like

Markus (Маркус) is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Happy Paw Kyiv in Ukraine.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Markus (Маркус), answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Markus (Маркус)?: 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 Markus (Маркус) on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Markus (Маркус) 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Markus (Маркус) 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 Markus (Маркус) 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 Markus (Маркус) 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.
