Elvis & Frieda

Unknown · Adult · 10 years

Elvis and Frieda originally came from Spain and were rehomed by us in 2017. Unfortunately, a family member developed an allergy, so the two are back. They are described as follows: Frieda and Elvis are siblings—and just like that, they behave: sometimes independent, sometimes close to each other, but always connected. The two will be around 10 years old in May and have lived with us since 2017. Therefore, we wish for them a new home where they can stay together. Frieda is a very loving, friendly cat who enjoys the closeness to her people. She loves being scratched and stroked and seeks contact. Especially happy is she when she finds a warm spot in the sun and can relax and doze there. Elvis is her brother—and an rather sensitive character. At first, he is shy and usually the first to retreat when there are visitors. But once he has gained trust, he shows his gentle and affectionate side and enjoys cuddles very much. One of his favorite activities: rolling up in boxes and observing what is happening around him from there. Both get along well with children, as long as their boundaries are respected. They are not outdoor cats, but they very much enjoy spending time on the balcony and observing the world from there. We wish for the two a quiet, loving home with people who give them time to settle in and continue to provide security. Whoever takes Frieda and Elvis in gets two very special cats with big hearts. The two are already microchipped and neutered. At the moment, they are in 46049 Oberhausen, where one can also visit and get to know them.

DE·Show original

Elvis und Frieda kommen ursprünglich aus Spanien und wurden 2017 von uns vermittelt. Leider hat ein Familienmitglied eine Allergie entwickelt, sodass die beiden wieder zurück in die Sie werden wie folgt beschreiben: Frieda und Elvis sind Geschwister – und genau so verhalten sie sich auch: mal unabhängig, mal nah beieinander, aber immer miteinander verbunden. Die beiden werden im Mai etwa 10 Jahre alt und leben seit 2017 bei uns. Deshalb wünschen wir uns für sie ein neues Zuhause, in dem sie gemeinsam bleiben dürfen. Frieda ist eine sehr liebe, zutrauliche Katze, die die Nähe zu ihren Menschen genießt. Sie liebt es, gekrault und gestreichelt zu werden und sucht gerne den Kontakt. Besonders glücklich ist sie, wenn sie ein warmes Plätzchen in der Sonne findet und dort entspannt vor sich hin dösen kann. Elvis ist ihr Bruder – und ein eher sensibler Charakter. Er ist anfangs schüchtern und bei Besuch meist der Erste, der sich lieber zurückzieht. Doch wenn er Vertrauen gefasst hat, zeigt er seine sanfte und liebevolle Seite und genießt Streicheleinheiten sehr. Eine seiner liebsten Beschäftigungen: sich in Kartons zusammenrollen und dort gemütlich beobachten, was um ihn herum passiert. Mit Kindern kommen beide gut zurecht, solange ihre Grenzen respektiert werden. Sie sind keine Freigänger, verbringen aber sehr gerne Zeit auf dem Balkon und beobachten von dort aus die Welt. Wir wünschen uns für die beiden ein ruhiges, liebevolles Zuhause mit Menschen, die ihnen Zeit geben anzukommen und ihnen weiterhin Geborgenheit schenken. Wer Frieda und Elvis bei sich aufnimmt, bekommt zwei ganz besondere Katzen mit großem Herzen. Die Zwei sind bereits gechipt und kastriert. Zurzeit befinden sie sich in 46049 Oberhausen, wo man sie auch gerne besuchen und kennenlernen kann.

About Elvis & Frieda

What life with Elvis & Frieda looks like

Elvis & Frieda is a large adult cat waiting at Aktion Tierisch Happy 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. 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 Elvis & Frieda, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Elvis & Frieda?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Aktion Tierisch Happy e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Elvis & Frieda on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Elvis & Frieda if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Aktion Tierisch Happy 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Elvis & Frieda 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 Elvis & Frieda 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 Aktion Tierisch Happy e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Elvis & Frieda 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.
