Else

Female · Adult · 9 years

Else is now available! Status: open Name: Else Breed: Longhair Mix Gender: female/spayed Color: black Age: 3 years Compatible with: fellow cats Else is a maximum of 3 years old and came to our association as a found cat. Unfortunately, her kittens could not be found and may have already been passed on. The beautiful long-haired Else could immediately start her own new life in our care. Else is a rather slender cat, although she appears a bit more voluminous due to her fluffy coat. She is rather reserved with fellow cats and enjoys some distance until trust is established. Else loves people, she loves cuddling and playing with a feather toy is a great pastime. Desired home: We would like to find a family for Else with or without children, preferably with a secured balcony and a friendly female cat of similar age for a nice chat in feline company!

– startet jetzt durch! Status: offen Name: Else Rasse: Langhaar Mix Geschlecht: weiblich/kastriert Farbe: schwarz Alter: 3 Jahre Verträglich mit: Artgenossen Else ist maximal 3 Jahre alt und kam als Fundkatze in unseren Verein. Ihre Kitten konnten leider nicht gefunden werden und waren möglicherweise schon weitergegeben worden. Die hübsche langhaarige Else konnte fortan in unserer Obhut direkt in ihr eigenes neues Leben starten. Else ist eine recht zierliche Katze, auch wenn sie durch das wuschelige Fell etwas voluminöser wirkt. Artgenossen gegenüber verhält sie sich eher zurückhaltend und freut sich, wenn etwas Abstand eingehalten wird, solange das Vertrauen noch fehlt. Menschen mag Else sehr, sie liebt es zu kuscheln und auch mit der Federangel spielen ist ein großartiger Zeitvertreib. Wunschzuhause: Wir wünschen uns für Else eine Familie mit oder ohne Kinder, am besten mit einem gesicherten Balkon und einer freundlichen Katzendame ähnlichen Alters für die nette Plauderrunde in Katzengesellschaft!.

About Else

What life with Else looks like

Else is a large adult cat waiting at Tierschutzverein 7 Gebirge e.V. — Orscheider Hof 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Else, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Else?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein 7 Gebirge e.V. — Orscheider Hof handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Else on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Else if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzverein 7 Gebirge e.V. — Orscheider Hof 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 Else 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 Else 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 7 Gebirge e.V. — Orscheider Hof early rather than rehoming privately; they know Else 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.
