Estelle

Female · Adult · 5 years

Estelle kam leider zurück da sie sich nicht öffnen wollte. Genau wie ihre Schwester Elysia macht sie leider kaum Fortschritte. Es ist kaum zu glauben das sie bei Abgabe beide als verschmust beschrieben wurden. Estelle hat sich schon streicheln lassen und konnte es auch genießen. Jedoch braucht sie viel Zeit und Ruhe, und wir können nicht garantieren das sie sich jemals richtig anfassen lässt. Im Moment schaut sie sich alles aus der Entfernung an, genießt den Außenbereich, flüchtet aber wenn man ihr zu nahe kommt. Wir suchen für sie (gerne auch mit ihrer Schwester Elysia, aber ohne andere Katzen) ein ruhiges Zuhause ohne Ansprüche, bei Katzenerfahrenen Menschen ohne kleine Kinder. Es sollte bewusst sein dass sie vielleicht später nur zum fressen wiederkommt und nie eine Schmusekatze wird.

About Estelle

What life with Estelle looks like

Estelle 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 Estelle, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Estelle?
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 Estelle on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Estelle 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 Estelle 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 Estelle 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 Estelle 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.
