Adopt Zvončica

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Senior · 12 years

Senior Zvončica had been lying by the stream for a long time, where we took her in at the animal shelter just before her sad end. They were eating her alive! Eventually she would have weakened and fallen into the stream, and the water would have carried her away, and no one would have even known she once existed. Her condition had been life-threatening for several weeks. With great effort and dedication, we managed to get Zvončica much better and she will soon fully recover. You can see her almost final chapter of life in this video: For veterinary care we spent 876.28 euros. Senior Zvončica is in long-term care, as she has diabetes and megacolon. We spend especially large amounts on cats with special needs. That is why help in the form of a donation of 1% of your income is very helpful to us.

Seniorčica Zvončica je dlje časa čepela ob potoku, kjer smo jo tik pred njenim bridkim koncem prevzeli v zavetišče. Pri živem telesu so jo jedli črvi! Sčasoma bi omagala in padla v potok, voda bi jo odnesla in nihče nebi niti vedel, da je kdaj obstajala Njeno stanje je bilo več tednov življenjsko ogroženo. Z veliko truda in predanosti smo uspeli, da je Zvončica sedaj mnogo bolje in bo kmalu povsem okrevala. Njen skorajšnji zaključek življenjske poti pa si lahko ogledate v tem videu: Za veterinarsko oskrbo smo porabili 876,28 eur. Seniorčica Zvončica je v dolgotrajni oskrbi, saj ima diabetes in agromegalijo. Za muce s posebnimi potrebami porabimo še posebej veliko sredstev. Zato nam je pomoč v obliki namenitve dela dohodnine (1%) v veliko pomoč.

About Zvončica

What life with Zvončica looks like

Zvončica is a senior mixed breed cat waiting at Zavod Muri in Vransko.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇸🇮Adopting from Slovenia

Frequently asked

Adopting Zvončica, answered.

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