FORTUNA

British Shorthair · Female

Quinta and Fortuna came to our shelter as stray cats and have developed into an inseparable duo here. The two love each other very much and prefer to spend every minute together. Therefore, we are looking for a shared home where they can continue to go through life side by side. Both female cats are extremely affectionate, people-oriented and cuddly. They enjoy every caress, are playful and bring a lot of joy into everyday life with their loving nature. With their charming nature, they conquer hearts in the blink of an eye and are simply two incredibly sweet companions. Quinta and Fortuna can move to families with responsible children. They would like a home in apartment living. A connected balcony where they can enjoy fresh air and sunshine would be nice, but it is not a requirement. Both cats have already been spayed or neutered. Quinta has a mild hip dysplasia. To remain symptom-free in the long term, good muscle development and a healthy body weight should be ensured. Fortuna had a bladder infection as well as a pancreas and gall bladder inflammation in the past. These diseases were probably triggered by stress and have since been overcome. Additionally, she has a slightly calcified kidney, which is probably genetically determined. For precautionary purposes, we recommend having her kidney values checked by a veterinarian once a year.

Quinta und Fortuna kamen als Fundkatzen zu uns ins Tierheim und haben sich hier zu einem unzertrennlichen Duo entwickelt. Die beiden lieben sich sehr und verbringen am liebsten jede Minute miteinander. Deshalb wünschen wir uns für sie ein gemeinsames Zuhause, in dem sie weiterhin Seite an Seite durchs Leben gehen dürfen. Beide Katzendamen sind ausgesprochen zutraulich, menschenbezogen und verschmust. Sie genießen jede Streicheleinheit, sind verspielt und bringen mit ihrer liebevollen Art viel Freude in den Alltag. Mit ihrem charmanten Wesen erobern sie die Herzen im Sturm und sind einfach zwei unglaublich süße Begleiterinnen. Quinta und Fortuna können gerne zu Familien mit verantwortungsbewussten Kindern ziehen. Sie wünschen sich ein Zuhause in Wohnungshaltung. Ein vernetzter Balkon, auf dem sie frische Luft und die Sonne genießen können, wäre schön, ist aber keine Voraussetzung. Beide Katzen sind bereits kastriert. Quinta hat eine beginnende geringgradige Hüftdysplasie. Damit sie langfristig beschwerdefrei bleibt, sollte auf einen guten Muskelaufbau sowie auf ein gesundes Körpergewicht geachtet werden. Fortuna hatte in der Vergangenheit eine Blasenentzündung sowie eine Bauchspeicheldrüsen und Gallenentzündung. Diese Erkrankungen wurden vermutlich durch Stress ausgelöst und sind inzwischen überstanden. Zusätzlich hat sie eine leicht verkalkte Niere, was vermutlich genetisch bedingt ist. Zur Vorsorge empfehlen wir, ihre Nierenwerte einmal jährlich tierärztlich kontrollieren zu lassen. -0Fax: 089/90 73 20E-Mail

About FORTUNA

What life with FORTUNA looks like

FORTUNA is a adult british shorthair cat waiting at Tierschutzverein München.

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 FORTUNA, answered.

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