How do I contact the shelter about Cherry?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein Lippstadt und Umgebung e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Cherry on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Cherry if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzverein Lippstadt und Umgebung 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 Cherry 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 Cherry 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 Tierschutzverein Lippstadt und Umgebung e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Cherry 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.

Cherry

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Cherry Tier-ID: 1127 | In the shelter since April 8, 2026 (Current interested parties: 0) Cherry raised her kittens with great care and gave them a successful start in life. All of her babies have now found new homes—now it’s Cherry’s turn, and she’s waiting to find her own family. Here at the shelter, she has shown herself to be a very friendly and people-oriented cat who thoroughly enjoys attention. After the exhausting time she spent as a mother cat, she more than deserves to finally take center stage herself and enjoy the care and affection of her own humans. We wish for Cherry a loving home where she can settle in peace and quiet. After an appropriate adjustment period, she should once again have the opportunity to go outdoors, as that’s something she’ll be able to enjoy in the future. At this point, we can’t yet say with certainty whether Cherry would be suitable as a second cat. Therefore, we’d be happy to provide individual advice on this matter once a potential companion animal has been introduced at the shelter. Back

Cherry Tier-ID: 1127 Im Tierheim seit 08.04.2026 (Aktuelle Interessenten: 0) Cherry hat ihre Kitten mit viel Fürsorge großgezogen und ihnen einen gelungenen Start ins Leben ermöglicht. Mittlerweile haben alle ihre Babys ein neues Zuhause gefunden – nun ist Cherry an der Reihe und wartet darauf, selbst ihre eigene Familie zu finden. Sie zeigt sich bei uns als sehr freundliche und menschenbezogene Katze, die Aufmerksamkeit genießt. Nach der anstrengenden Zeit als Katzenmama hat sie es mehr als verdient, nun selbst im Mittelpunkt zu stehen und die Fürsorge ihrer eigenen Menschen zu genießen. Für Cherry wünschen wir uns ein liebevolles Zuhause, in dem sie in Ruhe ankommen darf. Nach einer angemessenen Eingewöhnungszeit soll sie wieder die Möglichkeit zum Freigang erhalten, da sie diesen künftig genießen soll. Ob Cherry sich als Zweitkatze eignet, können wir derzeit noch nicht sicher einschätzen. Daher beraten wir Interessenten hierzu gerne individuell, sobald eine Vergesellschaftung im Tierheim erfolgt ist. Zurück

About Cherry

What life with Cherry looks like

Cherry is a large young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Lippstadt und Umgebung e.V. 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. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.
