EKH Stella – zarte Seele sucht Schmuseplatz

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 5 years

My name is Stella. I am female, neutered, and born around 2016. I have been waiting since April 2021 for a new home. That's what my caretakers say about me. Stella is one of two adopted Fellschnüts from a supported feeding station that has to be dissolved, taken over by a friendly association. At first, she was shy and understandably overwhelmed by the situation. Nevertheless, Stella was easily handled, and now she is a shy snuggler, gaining more and more confidence daily. She has even started to request cuddles recently, sensing the stroking hand of a biped. If she doesn't get enough attention, she can react defensively. She would make a good second cat, a secure roam would be nice, but it is not a condition. If there are children present, they should bring the necessary understanding for an initially reserved cat, especially at the beginning. Patience is required for her adjustment period, and then Stella will surely become a cuddly family member when she feels secure. Who would like to help our Stella reach the stars?. This cat needs outdoor access.

Mein Name ist Stella. Ich bin weiblich, kastriert und circa 2016 geboren. Ich warte seit April 2021 auf ein neues Zuhause. Das sagen meine Betreuer über mich. Stella ist eine von zwei übernommenen Fellschnuten aus einer betreuten Futterstelle, die aufgelöst werden muss und ist von einem befreundeten Verein übernommen worden. Anfänglich war sie schüchtern und mit der Situation verständlicherweise überfordert. Trotzdem war Stella gut händelbar, inzwischen ist sieein schüchterner Schmuser und bekommt täglich mehr und mehr Vertrauen. Seit wenigen Tagen fordert sie auch Streicheleinheiten ein, spürt er die streichelnde Hand eines Zweibeiners. Bekommt sie zu wenig Aufmerksamkeit, kann sie beleidigt reagieren. Sie würde sich sicher gut als Zweitkatze eignen, gesicherter Freigang wär schön, ist aber nicht Bedingung. Sind Kinder vorhanden, sollten diese, besonders zu Beginn, das nötige Verständnis für eine anfänglich zurückhaltende Katze mitbringen. Für ihre Eingewöhnungszeit ist Geduld erforderlich, dann wird auch Stella bestimmt schnell zu einem verschmusten Familienmitglied, wenn sie sich sicher fühlt. Wer möchte unserer Stella die Sterne vom Himmel holen?
