Mixed Breed · Female

Downi Breed: European Shorthair Color: black and white Gender: female Birthdate: unknown Spayed: yes Downi came to us as a found animal, unfortunately we couldn't find any owners. She is a very agile and active cat. She prefers to be in the middle of things rather than just along for the ride. She can also show when she doesn't like something. She wants a home where people spend a lot of time with her and she doesn't need other cats in her new home.

Downi Rasse: Europäisch Kurzhaar Farbe: schwarz-weiß Geschlecht: weiblich Geburtsdatum: unbekannt Kastriert: ja Downi kam als Fundtier zu uns ins Tierheim, leider konnten wir keine Besitzer ausfindig machen. Sie ist eine sehr agile und Bewegung freudige Katze. Sie ist lieber mittendrin statt nur dabei. Sie kann aber auch zeigen wenn ihr etwas nicht gefällt. Sie wünscht sich ein Zuhause wo man sich viel mit ihr beschäftigt und andere Katzen braucht sie nicht in ihrem neuen Heim.

About Downi

What life with Downi looks like

Downi is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutzverein für den Rhein-Kreis Neuss e.V. 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Downi, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Downi?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein für den Rhein-Kreis Neuss e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Downi on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Downi if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzverein für den Rhein-Kreis Neuss 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Downi 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 Downi 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 für den Rhein-Kreis Neuss e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Downi 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.
