Cipolla

Mixed Breed Cat · Female · Young · 3 years

Das süsse Katzenduo musste sein bisheriges Zuhause leider verlassen, weil ein Familienmitglied allergisch auf die beiden reagierte. Bei uns zeigen sich Cipolla und Porcini als zwei eher zurückhaltende, aber unglaublich liebe Katzen. Streicheleinheiten finden sie grossartig und schnurren dabei wie zwei kleine Weltmeister. Für solche Kuscheleinheiten verlassen sie ihre geliebte Box allerdings nicht unbedingt, schliesslich lässt es sich auch von dort aus wunderbar verwöhnen. Haben die beiden erst einmal Vertrauen gefasst, kommen sie einem auch entgegen und begrüssen ihre Bezugspersonen. Ganz auf ihre sichere Lieblingsbox verzichten möchten sie dabei aber noch nicht und bleiben stehts in ihrer Nähe. Cipolla und Porcini verstehen sich sehr gut miteinander. Sie teilen sich gerne eine gemütliche Höhle, kuscheln zusammen und geben ein richtig schönes Duo ab. Deshalb möchten wir die beiden auch nicht trennen und suchen für sie ein gemeinsames Zuhause. Eine Familie mit etwas älteren Kindern können wir uns für die beiden gut vorstellen, solange man ihnen die nötige Zeit gibt, in ihrem eigenen Tempo anzukommen. Da Cipolla und Porcini beide noch relativ jung sind, möchten sie künftig auch draussen etwas erleben. Ihr neues Zuhause sollte deshalb in einer geeigneten, verkehrsarmen Umgebung liegen, damit die beiden auf eigenen Pfoten die Welt entdecken können.

About Cipolla

What life with Cipolla looks like

Cipolla is a young adult mixed breed cat cat waiting at Zürcher Tierschutz in Zürich.

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 Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.

Frequently asked

Adopting Cipolla, answered.

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