Dory

European Shorthair · Female · Young · 1 year

Dory, a tiger-white female cat, is a former stray that was neither reported missing nor sought by her previous owners and is now looking for a new family. The now-spayed Dory would like to move in with quiet and cat-experienced people who can allow her outdoor access in a traffic-calmed area after she has settled in. Once Dory has gotten to know her caregivers, she will surely enjoy extensive petting and cuddling on the couch. The approximately one-year-old cat also likes to comment on the daily events and has revealed herself to be a little chatterbox, but fortunately, she only speaks in a soft voice. The pretty cat with the big eyes is social with other cats and would not mind the presence of an age-appropriate and peaceful tomcat in her future home. Dory is not suitable for smaller children as she prefers a quiet environment.

DE·Show original

Die getigert-weiße Kätzin Dory ist ein ehemaliges Fundtier, das von den früheren Besitzern weder als vermisst gemeldet noch gesucht worden war und das jetzt eine neue Familie sucht. Die inzwischen kastrierte Dory möchte zu ruhigen und katzenerfahrenen Menschen ziehen dürfen, die ihr nach Eingewöhnung wieder Freigang in verkehrsberuhigter Gegend ermöglichen können. Wenn die Kätzin ihre Bezugspersonen zunächst kennenlernen durfte, wird sie ausgiebige Streicheleinheiten und auch Kuschelstunden auf dem Sofa sicher zu genießen wissen. Desweiteren kommentiert die etwa Einjährige gerne das Tagesgeschehen und hat sich mittlerweile als kleine Schnatterine entpuppt, äußert sich dabei jedoch erfreulicherweise nur mit leiser Stimme. Die Hübsche mit den großen Augen zeigt sich Artgenossen gegenüber sozial und hätte gegen die Anwesenheit eines altersmäßig passenden und friedlichen Katers im künftigen Zuhause bestimmt nichts einzuwenden. Für kleinere Kinder ist Dory nicht geeignet, denn sie bevorzugt ein ruhiges Umfeld.

About Dory

What life with Dory looks like

Dory is a large young adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Neumarkt in der Oberpfalz in Neumarkt.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Dory, answered.

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