Adopt Elysia

Female · Adult · 5 years

Elysia was dropped off together with her sister Estelle. She is currently very stressed from being at the animal shelter and the everyday routine. She hides a lot and can sometimes show that it’s too much for her in her panic. However, she also enjoys cuddles if you take the time. We believe that she will only truly blossom in a proper home. Therefore, we are looking for cat-experienced people without small children. She can move out alone or with Estelle. Other cats should not be present in the new home. This animal was surrendered to the shelter.

Elysia wurde gemeinsam mit ihrer Schwester Estelle abgegeben. Sie ist im Moment noch komplett durch den Wind und durch den Tierheim Alltag sehr gestresst. Sie versteckt sich viel und kann in ihrer Panik auch mal zeigen das es ihr gerade zu viel wird. Jedoch genießt sie auch Streicheleinheiten wenn man sich etwas Zeit nimmt. Wir glauben das sie erst in einem richtigen Zuhause richtig aufblühen wird. Daher suchen wir für sie katzenerfahrene Menschen ohne kleine Kinder. Sie kann alleine oder mit Estelle ausziehen. Andere Katzen sollten sich im neuen Zuhause nicht befinden.

About Elysia

What life with Elysia looks like

Elysia is a adult cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Reutlingen in Reutlingen.

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 Elysia, answered.

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