Adopt Nadia

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

Description: Nadia was in very poor condition when she arrived at the animal shelter. We immediately had to perform a tail amputation because it was too damaged. In addition to other injuries, we found that she has bullets in her body, as people obviously shot her. That is probably why she was initially more shy or reserved. Once she trusts a person, she allows herself to be petted. She currently shows no signs of pain and is finally ready to find a new, responsible home. She is suitable only for indoor living. Date of birth: 1. 5.

Opis : Nadia je bila ob prihodu v zavetišče v zelo slabem stanju. Že takoj smo morali opraviti amputacijo repa, ker je bil preveč poškodovan. Poleg drugih poškodb smo ugotovili tudi, da ima v telesu metke, ker so očitno ljudje streljali nanjo. Verjetno je zato tudi sprva bolj plašna oziroma zadržana. Šele ko človeku zaupa, se mu pusti božati. Trenutno je brez znakov bolečine in je končno pripravljena, da najde nov, odgovoren dom. Primerna je za izključno notranje bivanje. Datum rojstva : 1. 5. 2023

About Nadia

What life with Nadia looks like

Nadia is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Zavetišče Ljubljana in Ljubljana.

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 Slovenia

Frequently asked

Adopting Nadia, answered.

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