How do I contact the shelter about Petra (Петра)?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Старый Кот (Old Cat) handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Petra (Петра) on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Petra (Петра) if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Старый Кот (Old Cat) 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 Petra (Петра) 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 Petra (Петра) 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 Старый Кот (Old Cat) early rather than rehoming privately; they know Petra (Петра) 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 (RU). 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.

Petra (Петра)

Mixed Breed · Female

Our timid and gentle Petra, who weighed just over a kilogram, was once riddled with bullets. They were everywhere: in the spine, near the heart, and in the thigh. Literally a millimeter - and Petra would no longer be alive... Someone's cruel entertainment cost Petra the ability to use her hind legs and go to the toilet on her own. Alas... But for some reason, those who are not given the joy of a full life value it more than anyone else! And they find happiness in every second, in every small achievement, and in every crumb of attention.All you need to become Petra's owner is to have a kind and loving heart. And we'll teach you everything else! Call:

Нашу робкую и нежную Петру, которая весила чуть больше килограмма, в свое время изрешетили пулями. Они были везде: в позвоночнике, возле самого сердечка и в бедре. Буквально миллиметр — и Петры уже не было в живых… Чье-то жестокое развлечение стоило для Петры возможности использовать задние лапки и самостоятельно ходить в туалет. Увы…Но почему-то как раз те, кому не дана радость полноценной жизни, ценят её больше всех! И находят счастье в каждой секунде, в каждом маленьком достижении и в каждой крохе внимания.Всё, что вам нужно, чтобы стать хозяином Петры — это обладать добрым и любящим сердцем. А всему остальному мы вас научим! Звоните:
