Adopt Finja

Maine Coon · Female · Senior · 13 years

Hello, I am Finja. I came here as a found animal, and since it seems no one misses me, I am now looking for a new home. Although I am not the youngest anymore and I do not have all my teeth, I am still very fit. I love being thoroughly stroked. Whether I get along with other cats, my caretakers cannot say yet, as I have not been here for long. I am a bit of a picky eater when it comes to food, but my caretakers can definitely tell you what I like to eat. I do not do well with a lot of commotion and would therefore prefer a quieter home with a more rural outdoor space. If you have a suitable spot for me, feel free to contact this breed animal shelter and arrange a meeting to get to know me.

Hallo, ich bin Finja. Ich kam als Fundtier hierher und da mich scheinbar niemand vermisst, suche ich jetzt ein neues Zuhause. Die Jüngste bin ich zwar nicht mehr und ich habe auch nicht mehr alle Zähne, aber ich bin noch total fit. Ich liebe es, ausgiebig gekrault zu werden. Ob ich mich mit anderen Katzen verstehe können meine Pfleger*innen im Moment noch nicht sagen, da ich noch nicht so lange hier bin. Beim Futter bin ich etwas wählerisch, aber meine Pfleger*innen können euch bestimmt sagen, was ich gerne fresse. Ich komme mit Trubel nicht so gut klar und wünsche mir deshalb ein eher ruhiges Zuhause mit einem eher ländlichen Freigang. Wenn ihr also noch ein passendes Plätzchen für mich frei habt, dann meldet euch doch gerne im Tierheim und macht einen Termin zum kennenlernen aus. Eure Finja

About Finja

What life with Finja looks like

Finja is a senior maine coon cat waiting at Tierheim u. Tierschutzverein Kreis Ahrweiler e.V. / Tierheim Remagen. in Remagen.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇩🇪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 Finja, answered.

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