Saima

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

Saima is a young and adorable kitten, who is still very wary of humans. Adjusting to a new environment takes time, but consistent and gentle interaction helps Saima trust and explore the world around them. While they allow Saima to make progress, they currently do not particularly enjoy close contact and prefer a safer distance. With a resilient and content approach, Saima has the potential to become a loving companion and a devoted friend. Saima has been spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and received necessary parasite treatments. If you would like to extend a helping hand to Saima, a big thank you for caring for the lovable pets at the animal shelter!

ET·Show original

Saima on noor ja armas kassipreili, kes on veel inimese suhtes pelglik. Uues keskkonnas võtab tal kohanemine aega, kuid tasapisi õpib Saima usaldama ning maailma enda ümber avastama. Pai laseb ta teha, kuid hetkel ta seda veel eriti ei naudi ja eelistab pigem turvalist distantsi. Kannatliku ja rahuliku lähenemisega on Saimas peidus potentsiaal saada armsaks ja truuks kaaslaseks. Saima on steriliseeritud, vaktsineeritud, kiibitud ja saanud vajalikud parasiiditõrjed. Varjupaigas viibivate loomade ülalpidamine saab toimuda vaid heade annetajate toel. Kui ka sina soovid Saima enda abikäe ulatada, sisesta "Anneta loomale" kastis endale sobiv summa ja kliki nupul Anneta. Suur aitäh, et hoolid varjupaigas viibivatest loomadest!

About Saima

What life with Saima looks like

Saima is a medium-sized adult mixed breed cat waiting at Varjupaikade MTÜ in Tallinn.

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 Estonia

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 Saima, answered.

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