Stormy

European Shorthair · Female

Stormy ist anfangs eine ängstliche Maus, die etwas Zeit braucht, um Vertrauen zu fassen. Mit Ruhe, Geduld und einem sicheren Zuhause taut sie nach und nach auf und zeigt ihre liebevolle Seite. Da Stormy FIV-positiv ist, sucht sie ein Zuhause am besten mit gesichertem Freigang. Gerne kann sie zu einer oder mehreren ebenfalls FIV-positiven Katzen vermittelt werden. 🐾

About Stormy

What life with Stormy looks like

Stormy is a adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Holzminden in Holzminden.

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 Stormy, answered.

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