Fenja & Fritzi

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Kitten · 3 months

Like little black lightning bolts, the feline sisters Fenja and Fritzi dart around their cat room. They’re immediately eager to play with the cat teaser—and happily let themselves be invited by every new visitor as well. However, direct cuddle time requires a bit of earning first, as these two little panthers are quite cautious. During their first few weeks, they grew up outdoors on the street, which taught them to be careful at first. Still, Fenja and Fritzi have already learned at the Melle animal shelter that people can indeed be trusted and that being petted feels wonderful. We’d love to place these approximately 3-month-old kitten girls in a home where, once spayed or neutered, they’ll also be allowed outside for several hours at a time.

DE·Show original

Wie kleine schwarze Blitze flitzen die Katzenschwestern Fenja und Fritzi durch ihre Katzenstube. Zum Spiel mit der Katzenangel lassen sie sich sofort und auch von jedem neuen Besucher gerne einladen. Direkten Schmusekontakt muss man sich aber erst etwas verdienen denn da sind die zwei kleinen Panther umsichtig. Die ersten Wochen wuchsen sie draußen auf der Straße auf, dass hat sie gelehrt erst einmal vorsichtig zu sein. Allerdings haben Fenja und Fritzi im Tierheim Melle schon gelernt, dass man Menschen auch durchaus vertrauen kann und Streicheln schön ist. Wir würden die beiden ca. 3 Monate alten Katzenmädchen gerne dorthin vermitteln wo sie später – nach erfolgter Kastration – auch stundenweise nach draußen dürfen.

About Fenja & Fritzi

What life with Fenja & Fritzi looks like

Fenja & Fritzi is a small puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Melle in Melle.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇩🇪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 Fenja & Fritzi, answered.

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