Merkuriy (Меркурій)

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

Magnificent Mercury, although he has a magnificent marble-like coat, and an entirely unfortunate fate and almost a hopeless future... They rescued him as a kitten from Tруhaniv Island. They found him when the kitten was very hungry and with paws frozen from the cold. We took the kitten, warmed him up, fed him. And raised him. Mercury is 2 years old, neutered, vaccinated, treated for fleas and worms. Tests and documents are done. He knows the litter box perfectly. He has such wonderful long whiskers that they don't fit in the frame. The kitten had a suspicion of lymph node cancer on his back legs. But this is not a confirmed diagnosis, due to lack of funds in the animal shelter. Since the kitten is active and cheerful, with a great appetite, we would like to give him a chance to become a pet. Because he has been dreaming for a long time that he will one day have his own bowl and bed in life. The kitten has a slight distrust of strangers, which will go away at home over time. The handsome boy is already ready to go home. But to people who can accept the kitten with all his temporary fears. Mercury will become the most loyal and faithful friend, because you will become the center of his universe and he will be grateful to you until his last breath. Taking this kitten home, you will do a mega good deed... What could be stronger than saving a life of a helpless kitten starting from a clean sheet?...

Величний Меркурій, хоч і в шикарній мраморній шубці, та з зовсім нещасною долею і майже з безперспективним майбутнім… Підлітком його врятували з Труханового острову. Його знайшли, коли хлопчик був дуже голодний із задублими від морозу лапками. Ми забрали кото-дитину, відігріли, відгодували. І виростили) Меркурію 2 рочки, він кастрований, вакцинований, оброблений від блох і глистів. Зроблені тести і документи. Лоточок знає на відмінно. Має такі шикарні довгі вуса, що в кадр не вміщуються. У хлопчика була підозра на рак лімфовузлів на задніх лапах. Але це не підтверджений діагноз, із-за браку коштів в притулку. Так як хлопчик активний і веселий, з чудовим апетитом, то хочеться дати і йому шанс стати домашнім улюбленцем. Бо він вже дуже давно мріє, що і він колись матиме в житті свою індивідуальну мисочку і лежаночку. Хлопчик має легку недовіру до незнайомих людей, яка вдома з часом пройде. Красунчик вже готовий їхати додому. Але до людей, які зможуть прийняти котусика зі всіма його тимчасовими страхами. Меркурій стане найвірнішим і найвідданішим другом , бо Ви станете для нього центром всесвіту і він буде вдячний Вам до останнього свого подиху. Взявши цю кото-дитину додому, Ви зробите мега добру справу… Що може бути сильніше вчинку, ніж врятоване переписане життя беззахисного котусика с чистого аркуша?...Телефонуйте і приїжджайте знайомитися з Меркурієм

About Merkuriy (Меркурій)

What life with Merkuriy (Меркурій) looks like

Merkuriy (Меркурій) 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.

🇺🇦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 Merkuriy (Меркурій), answered.

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