How do I contact the shelter about Elani?

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

Can I adopt Elani if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzverein St. Pölten 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 Elani 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 Elani 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 St. Pölten early rather than rehoming privately; they know Elani 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.

Elani

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Young · 2 years

I am Elani. Because I could no longer be cared for, I was taken to the animal shelter. I am very approachable with familiar people and enjoy petting. However, I wish for my personal space to be respected and not be forced to cuddle. I love to play. I am generally friendly with other cats, but I am not yet friends here at the shelter and prefer to be alone. I am healthy and unremarkable. I am looking for a home with people who have experience with cats and can read body language well. Children should be older and know how to handle cats properly. I will be placed as a single cat, but also with an existing, relaxed, first cat. May I finally come to you? Please contact me! Your Elani Animal Welfare Society St. Pölten Gutenbergstraße 26 3100 St. Pölten General inquiries: Email: 72 We are available by phone Tuesday to Saturday. For dogs, cats and pets. For wildlife, please contact the NÖ Animal Welfare Hotline:

Hallo,Ich bin die Elani.Weil man sich nicht mehr um mich kümmern konnte, wurde ich im Tierheim abgegeben.Ich bin bei vertrauten Personen sehr zugänglich und freue mich über Streicheleinheiten. Ich wünsche mir aber, dass mein Freiraum respektiert wird und ich nicht zum Kuscheln gezwungen werde. Ich spiele sehr gerne.Mit anderen Katzen bin ich grundsätzlich verträglich, hier im Tierheim bin ich mit den Katzen freundlich, aber habe noch keine Freundschaften geschlossen und bin lieber für mich.Gesundheitlich zeige ich mich unauffällig.Ich suche ein Zuhause bei Menschen die schon Katzenerfahrung mitbringen und gut Körpersprache lesen können. Kinder sollten schon größer sein und den richtigen Umgang mit Katzen kennen. Ich werde sowohl als Einzelkatze vermittelt, aber auch zu einer vorhandenen, entspannten, Erstkatze. Darf ich bei dir endlich ankommen?Dann melde dich bitte!Deine Elani

About Elani

What life with Elani looks like

Elani is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutzverein St. Pölten in St. Pölten.

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 Austria

Austrian shelters follow the federal Tierschutzgesetz framework: adopters sign a Schutzvertrag (protection contract) committing to the animal's welfare. Spay/neuter, microchip, and vaccinations are included; fees typically range €150–€350.
