Annie

European Shorthair · Female

My name is Annie and I actually don't like talking about myself much because I am shy and reserved. When people come to see me, I prefer to observe them from a distance first. You never know. But after some time getting to know each other and a few treats, they don't bother me anymore. I have my little mini-cat kingdom here. I would love to exchange it for a big cat paradise. Unfortunately, I can't have free-range access because I have leukemia, but that's not really a big deal for me. Are you up for it? I'm ready when you are!. This cat needs outdoor access.

Mein Name ist Annie & tatsächlich rede ich nicht gern über mich, da ich schüchtern & zurückhaltend bin. Menschen, die zu mir kommen, schaue ich mir lieber erstmal mit Abstand an. Man weiß ja nie. Aber nach gewisser Kennenlernzeit & ein paar Leckerlies, stören sie mich nicht mehr. Ich habe hier mein kleines Mini-Katzenreich. Das würde ich gern eintauschen gegen ein großes Katzenparadies. Freigang darf ich leider nicht bekommen, da ich Leukose habe, aber das ist für mich nicht weiter schlimm. Traust du dir das zu? Ich bin bereit, wenn du es bist!

About Annie

What life with Annie looks like

Annie is a very small adult european shorthair cat waiting at Meine Katzenstation in Rüdersdorf bei 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Annie, answered.

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