Elli

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

Elli is a pretty black and white cat, about five years old. She lived in a garden for the first few years but couldn't stay there last year because she had five relatively young kittens. Her children have already found new homes. Now it's time for the loving mom to move into a forever home. Elli is a very kind and gentle cat who needs some time to warm up but then becomes quite accessible. She gets along well with other cats. Elli can also move into a household where a cat already lives. It would be nice if she could have safe outdoor access in her new home. But she would also do well as an indoor cat, ideally with a secure balcony. Elli is spayed and microchipped and is looking forward to her new family.

DE·Show original

Elli ist eine hübsche, schwarz-weiße Katze, die etwa fünf Jahre alt ist. Sie lebte die ersten Jahre in einer Gartenanlage und konnte dort aber letztes Jahr nicht mehr bleiben, da sie mit Beginn der ungemütlichen Witterung noch fünf relativ junge Katzenbabies hatte. Ihre Kinder haben sich schon ein neues Zuhause erobert. Nun soll auch endlich die liebe Mama in ein Für-immer-Zuhause umziehen können. Elli ist eine sehr liebe und sanfte Katze, die anfangs erst bisschen Zeit braucht, dann aber recht schnell auftaut und zugänglich ist. Mit anderen Katzen verträgt sie sich gut. Elli kann daher auch in einen Haushalt einziehen, wo schon eine Katze lebt. Es wäre schön, wenn sie im neuen Zuhause sicheren Freigang bekommen könnte. Aber sie kommt auch als Wohnungskatze, dann idealerweise mit einem gesicherten Balkon, wahrscheinlich gut zurecht. Elli ist sterilisiert und gechipt und freut sich auf ihre neue Familie.

About Elli

What life with Elli looks like

Elli is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Flöha 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 Elli, answered.

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