Adopt Mary

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Kitten

In our stray village in Mostar. Mary can travel to Germany on June 26, 2026, and is still searching for a suitable foster or permanent home. Specials: Mary is a house cat. Mary is one of the ten survivors. A delicate girl with bright, intelligent eyes, a fine face, and a look that goes straight to the heart. She seems to be observing the world very closely. Quiet, attentive, and with a wisdom that seems too large for such a young cat’s life. She belonged to the ten cats whose familiar world in Banja Luka suddenly shattered when their primary caregiver was taken from them in a tragic accident on the way home. For Mary, she was everyday, protection, food, voice, and home. A person who was there. And then there was suddenly silence. When our colleague learned of the tragedy, she offered her help. So, Mary could move into the stray village with the other cats. Still unsure, still not understanding why her old life had disappeared, but finally at a place where the future is possible. Mary has already experienced more than a little kitten should in her early days. As a baby, she was severely injured in her jaw. We unfortunately do not know what exactly happened then. The consequences lingered, her teeth caused problems and had to be extracted. After everything her little jaw had to endure, she initially only ate chicken breast and received her vitamin tablets daily. Now, fortunately, she has rediscovered a liking for wet food. This cat is to be kept indoors only.

In unserem Streunerdorf in Mostar. Mary kann am 26.06.2026 mit nach Deutschland reisen und sucht noch eine passende Pflege- oder Endstelle. Besonderheiten: Mary ist eine Wohnungskatze. Mary ist eine der zehn Hinterbliebenen. Ein zartes Mädchen mit hellen, klugen Augen, feinem Gesicht und einem Blick, der direkt ins Herz geht. Sie wirkt, als würde sie die Welt sehr genau betrachten. Still, aufmerksam und mit einer Weisheit, die für so ein junges Katzenleben eigentlich viel zu groß ist. Sie gehörte zu den zehn Katzen, deren vertraute Welt in Banja Luka plötzlich zerbrach, als ihre Bezugsperson auf dem Heimweg durch einen Unfall aus dem Leben gerissen wurde. Für Mary war sie Alltag, Schutz, Futter, Stimme und Zuhause. Ein Mensch, der da war. Und dann war da auf einmal Stille. Als unsere Kollegin von der Tragödie erfuhr, bot sie ihre Hilfe an. So konnte Mary mit den anderen Katzen ins Streunerdorf einziehen. Noch unsicher, noch ohne zu verstehen, warum ihr altes Leben verschwunden war, aber endlich wieder an einem Ort, an dem Zukunft möglich ist. Mary hat schon früh mehr erlebt, als ein kleines Katzenkind erleben sollte. Als Baby wurde sie stark am Kiefer verletzt. Was genau damals passiert ist, wissen wir leider nicht. Die Folgen begleiteten sie lange, ihre Zähne machten Probleme und mussten schließlich gezogen werden. Nach allem, was ihr kleiner Kiefer mitmachen musste, nahm sie zunächst nur Hühnerbrust an und bekam zusätzlich täglich ihre Vitamintabletten. Inzwischen hat sie zum Glück wieder Freude an Nassfutter gefunden.

About Mary

What life with Mary looks like

Mary is a small puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Streunerglück e.V. in München.

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 Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.

Frequently asked

Adopting Mary, answered.

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