How do I contact the shelter about Dipsy?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein 7 Gebirge e.V. — Orscheider Hof handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Dipsy on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Dipsy if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzverein 7 Gebirge e.V. — Orscheider Hof 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 Dipsy 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 Dipsy 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 7 Gebirge e.V. — Orscheider Hof early rather than rehoming privately; they know Dipsy 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.

Adopt Dipsy

Persian · Female · Young · 2 years

– gray Wuschelwolke Status: open Name: Dipsy Breed: Persian Mix Gender: female/neutered Color: gray Age: 2 years Gets along with: fellow animals Dipsy is a very plush Persian Mix female cat, about 2 years old. She came to us along with her friends as part of a security measure by the veterinary office…. Upon arrival, Dipsy was matted and had to be partially shaved, but her wonderful dense fur is already growing back! Nevertheless, Dipsy will still require regular fur care in the future! The somewhat shy gray female cat does not yet approach people actively, but will gladly be scratched in her favorite cave. With the same favorite people and especially a friendly fellow animal as a teacher, Dipsy will quickly gain trust and turn into a cuddly and playful cat lady. In a household with a nice existing cat or tomcat, the very social Dipsy will quickly learn and thaw out! An extraction with one of her current cuddle buddies would of course be perfect, but is not a must. Ideal home: For Dipsy, we are not looking for a too turbulent home – preferably with a later calmer outdoor access or a secured balcony – if there are children in the household, please ensure they are cat-experienced.

– graue Wuschelwolke Status: offen Name: Dipsy Rasse: Perser Mix Geschlecht: weiblich/kastriert Farbe: grau Alter: 2 Jahre Verträglich mit: Artgenossen Dipsy ist eine sehr plüschige Perser-Mix-Katzendame, etwa 2 Jahre alt. Sie ist zusammen mit ihren Freunden im Rahmen einer Sicherstellung des Veterinäramtes zu uns gekommen…. Dipsy war bei ihrer Ankunft verfilzt und musste deshalb teilgeschoren werden, aber ihr tolles dichtes Fell wächst bereits wieder nach! Dennoch wird Dipsy auch in Zukunft immer ordentlich Fellpflege benötigen! Die noch etwas schüchterne graue Katzendame kommt noch nicht aktiv auf Menschen zu, läßt sich jedoch in ihrer Lieblingshöhle gern kraulen. Bei immer denselben Lieblingsmenschen und insbesondere einem freundlichen Artgenossen als Lehrer/in wird auch Dipsy schnell Vertrauen fassen und zu einer verschmusten und verspielten Katzenlady mutieren. In einer Wohngemeinschaft mit einer/m netten Bestandskatze oder -kater wird die sehr soziale Dipsy schnell lernen und weiter auftauen! Ein Auszug mit einem ihrer derzeitigen Kuschelfreunde/innen wäre natürlich perfekt, ist aber kein Muss. Wunschzuhause: Für Dipsy suchen wir kein allzu turbulentes Zuhause – gern mit späterem verkehrsberuhigtem Freigang oder gesichertem Balkon – wenn Kinder im Haushalt sind, bitte unbedingt katzenerfahren. Kontakt: Anja Kalisch,

About Dipsy

What life with Dipsy looks like

Dipsy is a young adult persian cat waiting at Tierschutzverein 7 Gebirge e.V. — Orscheider Hof 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.
