Zavanna

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

Zavanna arrived at the shelter a few months ago quite scared, but had already spent enough time on the street to become quite distrustful of people. No, she wasn't feral and didn't like fighting with claws and teeth, but she didn't want to be petted and would hide away more comfortably. Gradually we have become friends, she no longer runs away from me and the cuddles have already started to become enjoyable, even though I have already heard her purr a few times. Still, she prefers to spend more time with her sister Zuzuh and play, and then she doesn't hold back. She is playful and can stay up for long evenings. Zavanna is ready to go to her real home and at first it should be taken into account that the cat likes to hide, but if given time to adjust, she will soon stick her curious little nose out. Curiosity is definitely present in Zavanna.

ET·Show original

Zavanna saabus turvakoju mõned kuud tagasi üsna titana, kuid juba oli ta tänaval veedetud ajaga jõudnud muutuda inimese suhtes üsna umbusklikuks. Ei, ta polnud metsakiisu ja küünte ning hammastega võitlust ei pidanud, kuid paitamist ta ei tahtnud ning parema meelega peitis ennast ära. Tasapisi oleme saanud sõpradeks, enam ta minu eest ära ei jookse ja paid on ka täitsa meeldima hakanud, isegi nurrumist olen mõned korrad juba kuulnud. Siiski eelistab ta rohkem oma õe Zuzuga aega veeta ja mängida ning siis ta ennast tagasi ei hoia. Mängulusti jagub pikkadeks õhtutundideks. Zavanna on valmis oma päris koju minema ja alguses kindlasti tuleb sellega arvestada, et kassiplika peitu poeb, kuid kui anda talle aega kohanemiseks, küll siis varsti ta oma uudishimuliku ninakese välja pistab. Uudishimu on Zavannal täitsa olemas. Kui see armas noor triibik Zavanna sulle meeldib ja tahaksid temaga lähemalt tuttavaks saada, siis palun saada kiri hoiukodu meiliaadressile ! Tekkis huvi? Täida ankeet ja paku kodu!

About Zavanna

What life with Zavanna looks like

Zavanna 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 Zavanna, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Zavanna?
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 Zavanna on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Zavanna 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 Zavanna 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 Zavanna 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 Zavanna 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.
