Boba

Mixed Breed · Unknown

In our stray village in Mostar. Boba can travel to Germany on June 26, 2026, and is still searching for a suitable foster or permanent home. Specials: Boba is a house cat. Boba is one of the ten survivors. A delicate lucky cat with alert eyes, a gentle nature, and a soul that does not cry out for attention. Boba does not stand in the forefront. She waits. Quietly. Cautiously. As if she must first discover whether this world can be good to her again. She belonged to the ten cats whose familiar world in Banja Luka suddenly shattered when their primary caregiver was taken from them in a tragic accident on the way home. For Boba, she was everyday, shelter, food, voice, and home. A person who was there. A rhythm she could rely on. And then suddenly, there was nothing of that. Only silence and a small cat heart that could not understand why the familiar was gone. When our colleague learned of the tragedy, she offered her help. So, Boba could move in with the others. Still unsure, still cautious, but finally at a place where not only is she cared for, but where there is also a future. Boba is kind and gentle, but she needs time. New people are not an open door for her to simply walk through. They are first an unknown sound, a new scent, a hand she cannot yet place. Boba observes. She stays at a distance, but not out of hardness, but because she must learn that closeness can again be safe. This cat is to be kept indoors only.

Nachdem Boba ihre Bezugsperson durch einen tragischen Unfall verloren hat, fand sie in 64823 Groß-Umstadt ein neues, behütetes Zuhause. Möge das Glück von nun an stets auf ihrer Seite sein! Besonderheiten: Boba ist eine Wohnungskatze. Sie wohnt zusammen mit Mila in der Pflegestelle. Boba ist eine der zehn Hinterbliebenen. Eine zarte Glückskatze mit wachem Blick, sanftem Wesen und einer Seele, die nicht laut um Aufmerksamkeit bittet. Boba steht nicht in der ersten Reihe. Sie wartet. Leise. Vorsichtig. So, als müsste sie erst herausfinden, ob diese Welt noch einmal gut zu ihr sein kann. Sie gehörte zu den zehn Katzen, deren vertraute Welt in Banja Luka plötzlich zerbrach, als ihre Bezugsperson auf dem Heimweg durch einen Unfall aus dem Leben gerissen wurde. Für Boba war sie Alltag, Schutz, Futter, Stimme und Zuhause. Ein Mensch, der da war. Ein Rhythmus, auf den sie sich verlassen konnte. Und dann war da auf einmal nichts mehr davon. Nur Stille und ein kleines Katzenherz, das nicht verstehen konnte, warum das Vertraute verschwunden war. Als unsere Kollegin von der Tragödie erfuhr, bot sie ihre Hilfe an. So konnte Boba mit den anderen einziehen. Noch unsicher, noch vorsichtig, aber endlich wieder an einem Ort, an dem nicht nur versorgt wird, sondern auch Zukunft möglich ist. Boba ist gutmütig und sanftmütig, doch sie braucht Zeit. Neue Menschen sind für sie keine offene Tür, durch die sie einfach hindurchläuft. Sie sind erst einmal ein unbekanntes Geräusch, ein neuer Geruch, eine Hand, die sie noch nicht einordnen kann. Boba beobachtet. Sie bleibt auf Abstand, aber nicht aus Härte, sondern weil sie lernen muss, dass Nähe wieder sicher sein darf.

About Boba

What life with Boba looks like

Boba is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Streunerglück e.V. in München.

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 Boba, answered.

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