How do I contact the shelter about Amy?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Berlin handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Amy on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Amy if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Berlin 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 Amy 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 Amy 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 Berlin early rather than rehoming privately; they know Amy 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.

Amy

Scottish Fold · Female · Adult · 4 years

Amy is a gentle and affectionate cat who needs a quiet home where she can finally feel safe. She was surrendered due to lack of time. At first, she is a bit reserved and needs a moment to trust. Once she has accepted her humans, she enjoys every petting session. Unfortunately, she is a so-called "designer breed." Her future humans should be aware of the possible health consequences of this breeding and be willing to accompany her in the long term. Our shelter staff will also provide you with detailed advice. I am looking for a spacious home (about 80 m²) with a secure balcony where I can live as a single princess. A quiet household without young children would be ideal. My humans should have a lot of time for me and give me the opportunity to build trust at my own pace. If you would like to give a gentle and affectionate cat a loving home, I look forward to getting to know you. Please contact us using the application form below or by phone at Samtpfötchen-Haus 1 (daily 13-16, except Saturdays).

Ich bin Amy … und suche ein ruhiges Zuhause, in dem ich endlich ankommen darf. Das bin ich: Ich wurde wegen Zeitmangels ins Tierheim abgegeben. Anfangs bin ich etwas zurückhaltend und brauche einen Moment, um Vertrauen zu fassen. Habe ich meine Menschen aber erst einmal ins Herz geschlossen, genieße ich jede Streicheleinheit. Leider bin ich eine sogenannte Qualzucht. Meine zukünftigen Menschen sollten sich vorab mit den möglichen gesundheitlichen Folgen dieser Zucht auseinandersetzen und bereit sein, mich langfristig zu begleiten. Meine Tierpfleger:innen beraten dich natürlich auch ausführlich. Ich wünsche mir … ein geräumiges Zuhause (ab etwa 80 m²) mit gesichertem Balkon, in dem ich als Einzelprinzessin leben darf. Ein ruhiger Haushalt ohne Kleinkinder wäre ideal. Meine Menschen sollten viel Zeit für mich haben und mir die Möglichkeit geben, in meinem eigenen Tempo Vertrauen zu fassen. Wenn du einer sanften Schmusekatze ein liebevolles Zuhause schenken möchtest, freue ich mich darauf, dich kennenzulernen. Melde dich gern über das Anfrageformular unten oder telefonisch im Samtpfötchen-Haus 1 unter (tgl 13-16 Uhr außer samstags).

About Amy

What life with Amy looks like

Amy is a adult scottish fold cat waiting at Tierheim Berlin in Berlin.

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.
