Antonella

Female · Senior · 15 years

Hello, I am Antonella, as my previous owners unfortunately were overwhelmed with the care of animals, I came to the animal shelter. I am a very loving but shy cat. Once given time to warm up, I do find cuddles to be nice. I have also been checked by the vet, and my move is now clear of any obstacles. Now I am searching for a quiet home where I can have many places to retreat. A possibility for a secure outdoor area would also be great. Children in my new family should already be older, as younger ones unsettle me and make me a little afraid. If you can provide a new home for an older female cat, please contact the animal shelter!

Hallo, ich bin die Antonella, da meine früheren Besitzer leider überfordert mit der Haltung von Tieren waren, bin ich ins Tierheim gekommen. Ich bin eine sehr liebe, aber schüchterne Katze. Wenn man mir Zeit zum Auftauen gibt, finde ich Streicheleinheiten aber bestimmt schön. Vom Tierarzt wurde ich auch schon durchgecheckt und meinem Auszug steht also nichts mehr im Wege. Nun suche ich nach einem ruhigen Zuhause, in dem ich viele Rückzugsmöglichkeiten habe. Auch eine Möglichkeit zum gesicherten Freigang wäre toll. Kinder in meiner neuen Familie sollten schon älter sein, kleinere verunsichern mich und machen mir ein bisschen Angst. Wenn Ihr einer älteren Katzendame ein neues Zuhause bieten könnt, meldet Euch doch bitte im Tierheim! Eure Antonella

About Antonella

What life with Antonella looks like

Antonella is a senior cat waiting at Tierheim u. Tierschutzverein Kreis Ahrweiler e.V. / Tierheim Remagen. in Remagen.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Antonella, answered.

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