Adopt Velma

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

On March 17, 2023, a small, friendly female dog arrived at the shelter. The elderly owner was asked to leave her and two other puppies except one due to aggressive behavior. We did indeed come up with an alternative to ensure all necessary procedures were done for the dogs and return them to the owner, but this plan was put on hold by the owner's card, as she wanted the aggressive behavior to continue and her eyes to not have to endure it for long. This lovely little ball of fur is now spayed, microchipped, and has received parasite treatment. A home is being sought with a welcoming attitude; interested parties must first fill out a survey available here: If interested, write , send a message on FB messenger, or call 58370708. We cannot change the whole world, just this one lovely dog's fate that has come to the shelter due to one aggressive peaker. PS HOUSING OPTIONS ARE ALSO AVAILABLE!

17.03.2023 Valjalast turvakodusse jõudnud väikest kasvu sõbralik emane kassike. Vanaprouast omanik oli sunnitud loobuma temast ja veel kahest kassipoisist ühe kiusliku pealekaebaja tõttu. Pakkusime küll välja variandi, et teeme kassidele kõik vajalikud protseduurid ja tagastame nad siis prouale, aga see plaan jäi katki proua kartis, et kiusuajamine jätkub ja tema närvid ei pea sellele kaua vastu. See armas väike karvapall on nüüdseks steriliseeritud, kiibitud ja saanud parasiiditõrje. Koju läheb lepingu ja loovutustasuga, huvilistel tuleb eelnevalt täita ankeet, mille leiab siit: Huvi korral kirjuta , saada sõnum FB messengeri või hoopis helista 58370708. Lepi kokku aeg ja tule külla Me ei suuda muuta kogu maailma, ühe kiusliku pealekaebaja tõttu turvakodusse sattunud armsa kassikese oma aga küll. PS OODATUD ON KA HOIUKODUPAKKUMISED!

About Velma

What life with Velma looks like

Velma is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at MTÜ Saaremaa Lemmikloomade Turvakodu in Kuressaare.

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 Velma, answered.

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