How do I contact the shelter about Floh?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Schkortitz handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Floh on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Floh if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Schkortitz 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 Floh 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 Floh 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 Schkortitz early rather than rehoming privately; they know Floh 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.

Floh

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 9 years

Floh was rehomed as a single cat to Grimma on 15.02.2017 and is now being doted on extensively! …………………………………………………………………………………………………….. I am female, spayed and born in 2008. I have been waiting for a new home since December 2016. This is what my caretakers say about me: Floh is a surrendered animal who longs for the advantages of a real family. She is open and approachable and immediately charms every visitor to the adoption room. Then she seeks out the cuddles that she so greatly misses. At our shelter, she has shown tolerance in the company of other animals and would like to go out as a second cat. The existing pet should be calm and not a daredevil. Likewise calm and compatible with other animals. Floh can handle bustle and a somewhat loud daily routine, we think she would even accept clumsy children's hands, as long as the cuddle factor and attention are not lacking. We wish for Floh a family, preferably with children, because she is a real snuggler. She is an ideal first pet, also gladly for people who are employed, can be rehomed in a suitable for apartment living or as a later outdoor cat. Who wants to give Floh the chance to finally collect cuddle units from lap to lap in her own family? The descriptions are impressions and recordings of the animal in our animal shelter and our foster homes. Each animal can develop differently in its new home.

Floh konnte am 15.02.2017 als Einzelkatze nach Grimma vermittelt werden und wird nun ausgiebig verwöhnt! …………………………………………………………………………………………………….. Ich bin weiblichlich, kastriert und 2008 geboren. Ich warte seit Dezember 2016 auf ein neues Zuhause. Das sagen meine Betreuer über mich: Floh ist ein Abgabetier, die die Vorzüge einer eigenen Familie sehnlich vermisst.Sie ist offen und zugänglich und bezirzt umgehend jeden Besucher des Vermittlungszimmers.Dann holt sie sich die Streicheleinheiten, die ihr so sehr fehlen. Bei uns zeigte sie sich tolerant in der Gesellschaft von Artgenossen und gern würde sie als Zweitkatze ausziehen.Das vorhandene Tier sollte ausgeglichen sein und kein Draufgänger.Ebenso ausgeglichen und gegenüber Artgenossen verträglich. Floh kann Trubel und einen etwas lauteren Alltag vertragen, wir denken, selbst ungeschickte Kinderhände nimmt sie in Kauf, solang der Schmusefaktor und die Aufmerksamkeit nicht zu kurz kommen. Wir wünschen uns für Floh eine Familie, sehr gern mit Kindern, denn sie ist eine echte Schmusebacke.Sie ist ein ideales Anfängertier, gern auch bei berufstätigen Personen, kann in reine Wohnungshaltung oder als späterer Freigänger vermittelt werden. Wer möchte Floh die Chance geben, endlich im Zuhause Schmuseeinheiten von Schoß zu Schoß in der eigenen Familie einheimsen zu können? Die Beschreibungen sind Eindrücke und Aufnahmen des Tieres in unserem Tierheim und unserer Pflegestellen. Jedes Tier kann sich im neuen Zuhause anders entwickeln.

About Floh

What life with Floh looks like

Floh is a medium-sized adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Schkortitz in Grimma.

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.
