Akira – sanfte Seele sucht ein ruhiges Für-immer-Zuhause 🐾

Female · Young · 3 years

Akira is a sweet and sensitive female cat who came to our shelter as a stray. Unfortunately, she has not been claimed by her owners and is now waiting for someone to give her a loving home. Akira is a very affectionate and gentle cat. She quickly trusts her humans, enjoys long cuddles and seeks their company. However, she does not like being held for too long - she prefers to decide when and how much physical contact she wants. As a friendly cat, Akira would not want to be the only cat in her new home. Therefore, we are looking for a large apartment with a secure balcony where a friendly female cat of similar age is already living. A social companion gives her security and company. Akira loves a quiet environment. Fast movements, chaos or loud noises make her feel insecure. In such situations she prefers to retreat into a safe hiding place. Therefore we are looking for a relaxed home with understanding people who give her time to settle in at her own pace. Children can live in the household but should be teenagers and understand Akira's sensitive nature. Anyone who wants to give a gentle, affectionate and loving cat a quiet home will find in Akira a loyal companion who gives her heart away with patience.

Unsere liebe Akira kam als Fundkatze zu uns ins Tierheim. Leider wurde sie nie wieder abgeholt und wartet nun auf Menschen, die ihr ein liebevolles Zuhause schenken möchten. Akira ist eine ausgesprochen liebevolle und sensible Katzendame. Sie fasst schnell Vertrauen zu ihren Menschen, genießt ausgiebige Streicheleinheiten und sucht gerne ihre Nähe. Nur allzu lange auf den Arm genommen zu werden, mag sie nicht – sie entscheidet lieber selbst, wann und wie viel Körperkontakt sie möchte. Als verträgliche Katze möchte Akira ihr neues Zuhause nicht alleine beziehen. Deshalb wünschen wir uns für sie eine große Wohnung mit gesichertem Balkon, in der bereits eine freundliche Katzendame im ähnlichen Alter lebt. Eine soziale Artgenossin gibt ihr Sicherheit und Gesellschaft. Akira liebt eine ruhige Umgebung. Schnelle Bewegungen, Hektik oder laute Geräusche verunsichern sie. In solchen Situationen zieht sie sich lieber in ein sicheres Versteck zurück. Daher suchen wir für sie ein entspanntes Zuhause mit einfühlsamen Menschen, die ihr die Zeit geben, in ihrem eigenen Tempo anzukommen. Kinder dürfen gerne im Haushalt leben, sollten jedoch bereits im Teenageralter sein und Verständnis für Akiras sensibles Wesen mitbringen. Wer einer sanften, verschmusten und liebenswerten Katzendame ein ruhiges Zuhause schenken möchte, wird in Akira eine treue Begleiterin finden, die mit etwas Geduld ihr Herz verschenkt.

Frequently asked

Adopting Akira – sanfte Seele sucht ein ruhiges Für-immer-Zuhause 🐾, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Akira – sanfte Seele sucht ein ruhiges Für-immer-Zuhause 🐾?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Düsseldorf handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Akira – sanfte Seele sucht ein ruhiges Für-immer-Zuhause 🐾 on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Akira – sanfte Seele sucht ein ruhiges Für-immer-Zuhause 🐾 if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Düsseldorf 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 Akira – sanfte Seele sucht ein ruhiges Für-immer-Zuhause 🐾 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 Akira – sanfte Seele sucht ein ruhiges Für-immer-Zuhause 🐾 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 Tierheim Düsseldorf early rather than rehoming privately; they know Akira – sanfte Seele sucht ein ruhiges Für-immer-Zuhause 🐾 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 (DE). 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.
