Shiro

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 6 years

Raplasse, Heina street occasionally has stray cats that later found a permanent home in my shelter. Shiro is one of them. While others were friendly and had previously interacted with people, Shiro arrived very shy - he hissed, waved his paws and constantly tried to escape either along the wall or by running away. But over time I won his trust and we became good friends. Now he allows himself to be picked up, purrs and demands pets. Every day when I go to the cat room, he waits for me along with the other cats at the door. The relationships with other cats are friendly. However, Shiro is still cautious towards visitors - first he hides, but if the visitors stay longer, he gradually comes out to check them out. Shiro is ready to turn a new page in his life, offering a paw and love.

Raplasse, Heina tänavale ilmub aegajalt kodutuid kasse, kes on minu turvakodus hiljem peavarju leidnud. Ka Shiro on üks nende seast. Kui teised on olnud sõbralikud ja eelduste kohaselt ka inimesega varem kokku puutunud, siis Shiro saabus väga inimpelglikuna – susises, vehkis käpaga ning püüdis pidevalt kas või mööda seinu põgeneda. Ent ajapikku võitsin ma ta usalduse ja meist said suured sõbrad. Nüüd laseb ta end juba sülle võtta, nurrub ja nõuab paisid. Iga päev, kui kassituppa toimetama lähen, ootab ta mind koos teiste kassidega ukse juures. Suhted teiste kassidega on sõbralikud. Külaliste suhtes on Shiro aga veel ettevaatlik – esmalt poeb peitu, aga kui külastajad kauemaks jäävad, ilmub ka tema tasapisi uudistama. Shiro on valmis pöörama uut lehekülge oma elus, pakkuma käppa ja armastust. Kui tunned, et sinu kodust on puudu just selline koheva kasukaga valge kassipoiss, siis palun kirjuta meiliaadressile .

About Shiro

What life with Shiro looks like

Shiro is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Gabrieli Loomade Elu MTÜ in Estonia.

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 Shiro, answered.

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