Adopt Ariel

Mixed Breed Cat · Male · Adult · 8 years

Ariel was introduced to the animal shelter with some other cats. Although he is initially shy, he is cuddly and gets along well with fellow animals. We are looking for a home for him as a second cat, either together with this breed or alongside an existing fellow animal. He can be kept in a purely apartment-friendly environment. If you are interested in one of our cats, please contact us preferably by email. In your email, describe how the cat will live with you and send us a telephone number. Then a member of our animal care team will get in touch with you. Cat descriptions are based on observations at the animal shelter or information from third parties and do not represent guaranteed characteristics. This cat is to be kept indoors only. Gets along with other dogs.

Ariel wurde mit weiteren Katzen ins Tierheim eingewiesen. Er zeigt sich zwar anfangs zurückhaltend, aber verschmust und verträglich mit Artgenossen. Wir suchen für ihn ein Zuhause als Zweitkatze, entweder zusammen mit Persil oder zu einem bereits vorhandenen Artgenossen dazu. Er kann in reiner Wohnungshaltung gehalten werden. Wenn Sie Interesse an einer unserer Katzen haben, kontaktieren Sie uns bevorzugt per E-Mail. Schildern Sie uns in der Mail, wie die Katze bei Ihnen leben wird und senden Sie uns eine Telefonnummer zu. Es wird sich dann ein*e TierpflegerIn bei Ihnen melden. Tierbeschreibungen basieren auf Beobachtungen im Tierheim oder auf Informationen Dritter und stellen keine zugesicherten Eigenschaften dar.

About Ariel

What life with Ariel looks like

Ariel is a adult mixed breed cat cat waiting at Tierheim Leipzig in Leipzig.

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 Ariel, answered.

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