How do I contact the shelter about Cleo?

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

Can I adopt Cleo if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Seelenkatzen 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 Cleo 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 Cleo 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 Seelenkatzen e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Cleo 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.

Cleo

Mixed Breed · Female · Kitten · 8 months

Location: Düsseldorf, Germany Age: Born October 2025 Gender: Female, neutered Temperament: Very social with fellow animals, reserved, playful! No solitary confinement! Specials: Hello, dear animal friends, I am Cleo, born around October 2025, and I am searching for a wonderful forever home. A loving animal rescuer found me on the streets of Crete, and I recently traveled to Germany. Unfortunately, my last home was not a good fit for me as my cat companion there did not match me. But I do not give up hope and am sure I will find a suitable home. Currently, I am waiting at a foster home in Düsseldorf and look forward to your visit there. When I first come to you, I have a great respect for humans. I am a bit anxious and will hide for a while. Once I gain trust, I enjoy being close to my favorite humans and look forward to cuddles. However, I sometimes need a little alone time and will retreat a bit – please respect that – then we will be the best friends 🐾 In my new home, I wish for a playful and social cat companion or a cat companion.

Standort: Düsseldorf, Deutschland Alter: geb. Oktober 2025 Geschlecht: weiblich, kastriert Charakter: sehr sozial mit Artgenossen, zurückhaltend, verspielt !keine Einzelhaltung! Besonderheiten: keine Hallo liebe Tierfreunde, ich bin Cleo, wurde ca. im Oktober 2025 geboren und suche ein schönes Für-Immer-Zuhause. Eine liebe Tierschützerin hat mich auf den Straßen Kretas gefunden und ich bin vor ein paar Wochen bereits nach Deutschland gereist. Leider war mein letztes Zuhause nicht das Passende für mich, da mein dortiger Katzenpartner leider nicht zu mir gepasst hat. Ich gebe aber die Hoffnung nicht auf und bin mir sicher, ein passenderes Zuhause zu finden. Aktuell warte ich bei einer Pflegestelle in Düsseldorf und freue mich dort auch über einen Besuch von Dir. Wenn ich anfangs zu Dir komme, dann habe ich noch großen Respekt vor Menschen. Ich bin etwas ängstlich und verstecke mich erstmal. Sobald ich Vertrauen gefasst habe, genieße ich die Nähe meiner Lieblingsmenschen und freue mich auf Streicheleinheiten. Dennoch brauche ich ab und an ein bisschen Me-time und ziehe mich ein wenig zurück – bitte respektiere das – dann werden wir die besten Freunde 🐾 In meinem neuen Zuhause wünsche ich mir einen verspielten & sozialen Katzenpartner oder eine Katzenpartnerin. Wenn du noch keine Katze hast, dann finden wir in unserer

About Cleo

What life with Cleo looks like

Cleo is a large puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Seelenkatzen e.V. in Barsinghausen.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇩🇪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.
