How do I contact the shelter about Elise?

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

Can I adopt Elise if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Glücksnasen e.V. Tierschutzverein 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 Elise 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 Elise 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 Glücksnasen e.V. Tierschutzverein early rather than rehoming privately; they know Elise 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.

Elise

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Elise is a very loving and gentle cat mom who has taken great care of her four kittens. She is now able to focus on herself again at the shelter and shows off her pleasant personality. Elise is relaxed and friendly, enjoys petting and appreciates attention from her humans. She also gets along well with other cats and is social and uncomplicated. After taking such wonderful care of her kittens, we sincerely hope that she will finally be seen. She deserves a cozy home of her own - with people who appreciate her gentle nature and give back all the love she so unconditionally gives.

Tierschützerin: Virginia Georgieva geboren: ca. September 2024 Geschlecht: weiblich Aufenthaltsort: Bulgarien kastriert: ja FIV-Test: negativ FeLV-Test: negativ Handicaps: keine verträglich mit: Kindern: nicht bekannt Katzen: ja Hunden: nicht bekannt Voraussetzungen: KEINE Einzelhaltung nur Wohnungshaltung, KEIN Freigang Balkon oder Terrasse wünschenswert (sofern vorhanden, ist die Sicherung erforderlich) Elise hatte großes Glück, dass sie rechtzeitig gefunden wurde. Die kleine Katzenmama lebte in einem Dorf, in dem Virginias Mann Georgi beruflich unterwegs war. Dort wurde sie gemeinsam mit anderen Straßenkatzen von einem Mann versorgt, der trotz seiner eigenen schwierigen Situation versuchte, den Tieren zu helfen. Mehr Möglichkeiten hatte er leider nicht. Als Virginia erfuhr, dass Elise trächtig war, brachte sie sie bei sich im Tierheim unter. Nur wenige Tage später brachte Elise vier kleine Kitten zur Welt. Bei Virginia konnte die liebevolle Mama ihre Kleinen in Sicherheit großziehen. Elise ist eine sehr liebe und sanfte Katzenmama, die sich fürsorglich um ihre vier Kitten gekümmert hat. Inzwischen darf sie bei Virginia wieder etwas mehr an sich denken und zeigt, was für eine angenehme Persönlichkeit in ihr steckt. Sie ist im Tierheim entspannt und freundlich, genießt Streicheleinheiten und freut sich über die Aufmerksamkeit ihrer Menschen. Auch mit anderen Katzen versteht sich Elise sehr gut und zeigt sich sozial und unkompliziert. Nachdem Elise so wunderbar für ihre Kleinen gesorgt hat, wünschen wir uns von Herzen, dass auch sie endlich gesehen wird. Sie hat es so sehr verdient, ein eigenes, gemütliches Zuhause zu finden – bei Menschen, die ihre sanfte Art schätzen und ihr all die Liebe zurückgeben, die sie selbst so bedingungslos verschenkt hat.

About Elise

What life with Elise looks like

Elise is a large young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Glücksnasen e.V. Tierschutzverein 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.
