Devil

European Shorthair · Female · Young · 2 years

Devil ist sehr verschmust und anhänglich. Devil kam zu uns, weil sie sich zuerst mit der vorhandenen Katze nicht verstanden hat, dann wurde sie privat abgegeben. Der Herr gab sie dann nach einem Monat bei uns ab, weil er kein Geld hätte. Sie ist positiv auf FIV getestet und darf deswegen nicht zu gesunden Tieren. Devil ist eine behandelte Bartonellen-Trägerin. Diese sind im Moment inaktiv, verbleiben aber und können rezidiv wieder auftreten. Devil war schon zur Probe in einem Zuhause und zeigte sich zwar sehr nett, schlief immer unter der Bettdecke des Kindes, aber war immer wieder mit Kot unsauber. Sie braucht viel Zeit und Aufmerksamkeit.

About Devil

What life with Devil looks like

Devil is a young adult european shorthair cat waiting at Kolner Tierschutzverein in Köln.

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 Devil, answered.

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