Alina

Female · Adult · 8 years

Alina is looking for a new home as an outdoor cat. The dainty cat is a little diva and knows exactly what she wants. She is people-oriented but only wants affection on her own terms. If something doesn't suit her, she might strike out. Alina is a solo princess and does not like to share her owner's attention.

DE·Show original

Alina sucht ein neues Zuhause als Freigängerin. Die zierliche Katze ist eine kleine Diva und weiß genau was sie will. Sie ist menschenbezogen, möchte Zuneigung aber nur zu ihren Bedingungen. Wenn ihr etwas nicht passt, kommt es vor, dass sie schlägt. Alina ist dazu eine Einzelprinzessin und möchte die Aufmerksamkeit ihres Menschen nicht gerne teilen.

About Alina

What life with Alina looks like

Alina is a small adult cat waiting at Tierheim Aachen in Aachen.

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 Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.

Frequently asked

Adopting Alina, answered.

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