Animal welfare advocate: Virginia Georgieva Born: approx. April 2025 Sex: female Location: Bulgaria Neutered: yes FIV test: negative FeLV test: negative Handicaps: none Compatible with: Children: not known Cats: yes Dogs: not known Requirements: NO single housing Apartment living only, NO free roaming Balcony or terrace desirable (if available, securing it is required) Bella was left in front of Virginia's animal shelter together with Precious and seven kittens, in two far-too-small transport boxes. The shelter was already overflowing at that time, and Virginia had to find a solution for the little family quickly. Fortunately, she was able to arrange other accommodation for the seven kittens. However, no one could be found for the two older girls. And so Bella and Precious remained at the shelter, where they are now waiting for someone to open the door for them, too. At the shelter, Bella shows herself to be an absolute heart cat. As soon as she receives a little attention, she blossoms completely: she enjoys every stroke to the fullest and quickly bonds with her people. With her uncomplicated, gentle nature, you simply have to love this little mouse. She also gets along wonderfully with other furry friends. Bella brings an incredible amount of warmth and coziness with her. The time is ripe for Bella to find her very great happiness. After her difficult start, this sweet little mouse wishes for people who will love her from the heart and give her the security she so deeply deserves. And should there not already be a furry friend living in the new home, Bella would very gladly bring Precious along to her new life.

Tierschützerin: Virginia Georgieva geboren: ca. April 2025 Geschlecht: weiblich Aufenthaltsort: Bulgarien kastriert: ja FIV-Test: negativ FeLV-Test: negativ Handicaps: keine verträglich mit: Kindern: nicht bekannt Katzen: ja Hunden: nicht bekannt Voraussetzungen: KEINE Einzelhaltung nur Wohnungshaltung, KEIN Freigang Balkon oder Terrasse wünschenswert (sofern vorhanden, ist die Sicherung erforderlich) Bella wurde gemeinsam mit Precious und sieben Kitten in zwei viel zu engen Transportboxen vor Virginias Tierheim abgestellt. Das Tierheim war zu diesem Zeitpunkt bereits rappelvoll, und Virginia musste schnell eine Lösung für die kleine Familie finden. Für die sieben Kitten konnte sie zum Glück eine andere Unterbringungsmöglichkeit organisieren. Für die beiden älteren Mädchen wollte sich jedoch niemand finden. So blieben Bella und Precious im Tierheim zurück und warten dort nun darauf, dass auch für sie jemand die Tür öffnet. Im Tierheim zeigt Bella sich als eine absolute Herzenskatze. Sobald man ihr ein wenig Aufmerksamkeit schenkt, blüht sie komplett auf – sie genießt jede Streicheleinheit in vollen Zügen und bindet sich schnell an ihre Menschen. Mit ihrer unkomplizierten, sanften Art muss man die kleine Maus einfach liebhaben. Auch mit anderen Samtpfoten versteht sie sich wunderbar. Bella hat einfach unglaublich viel Wärme und Gemütlichkeit im Gepäck. Für Bella ist die Zeit reif für das ganz großes Glück. Nach ihrem schweren Start wünscht sich die süße Maus Menschen, die sie von Herzen liebhaben und ihr die Geborgenheit schenken, die sie so sehr verdient. Und sollte dort noch keine pelzige Freundin wohnen, bringt Bella Precious sehr gerne gleich mit ins neue Leben.

About Bella

What life with Bella looks like

Bella is a large young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Glücksnasen e.V. Tierschutzverein in Germany.

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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Bella, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Bella?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Glücksnasen e.V. Tierschutzverein handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Bella on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Bella if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Glücksnasen e.V. Tierschutzverein 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Bella 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 Bella 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 Glücksnasen e.V. Tierschutzverein early rather than rehoming privately; they know Bella 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.
