How do I contact the shelter about Franny?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Katzenschutzfreunde Rhein-Ahr-Eifel e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Franny on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Franny if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Katzenschutzfreunde Rhein-Ahr-Eifel e.V. 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 Franny 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 Franny 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 Katzenschutzfreunde Rhein-Ahr-Eifel e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Franny and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.

Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?

Franny

Female · Kitten · 4 months

Franny *ca. 10.05.2026: When Franny came to us, she was very shy, having lived with her mother and siblings hidden in a wood pile in the forest and knowing no humans. But she has made great progress and has developed into a curious and playful kitten. Her favorite toy is her ball, with which she likes to play. Franny now lies relaxed when her foster mother is in the room and watches with interest what is happening around her. Then she comes closer and wants to know exactly what her human is doing. Since the foster mother's two daughters spend a lot of time with the kittens, they are very relaxed around children. Sometimes they even come up to them on their laps - a beautiful sign of how much trust they have and will strengthen in their forever home. Both indoor and outdoor living is possible. She can move in with one of her friends from the four-person group (e.g. Melina) or an existing young cat up to 6 years old. At the time of departure, she is vaccinated, dewormed and chipped and therefore well prepared for her new life. Now all that's missing is a loving home where Franny can continue to trust and arrive forever. Maybe with you? The foster home and Franny are looking forward to nice visits. PS: So.Sch. Brohl

Franny *ca. 10.05.2026: Als Franny zu uns kam, war sie noch sehr scheu, den sie lebte mit ihrer Mutter und Geschwistern versteckt in einem Holzstapel im Wald und kannte keine Menschen. Doch inzwischen hat sie tolle Fortschritte gemacht und hat sich zu einem neugierigen und verspielten Kätzchen entwickelt. Ihr Lieblingsspielzeug ist ihr Bällchen, mit dem sie gerne herumtollt. Franny bleibt mittlerweile entspannt liegen, wenn ihre Pflegemama im Zimmer ist und beobachtet interessiert, was um sie herum passiert. Dann kommt sie auch näher und möchte genau wissen, was ihr Mensch da eigentlich macht. Da die beiden Töchter der Pflegemama viel Zeit mit den Kitten verbringen, sind sie Kindern gegenüber sehr entspannt. Manchmal kommen sie auch zu ihnen auf den Schoß – ein schönes Zeichen, wie viel Vertrauen sie haben und im für-immer-Zuhause noch verstärken werden. Sowohl Wohnungshaltung als auch Freigang ist möglich. Sie kann mit einem ihrer Freunde aus der Vierergruppe (z.B. Melina) oder einer bestehenden, jungen Katze bis 6 Jahre ziehen. Beim Auszug ist sie geimpft, entwurmt und gechippt und damit bestens vorbereitet auf ihr neues Leben. Jetzt fehlt nur noch ein liebevolles Zuhause, in dem Franny weiter Vertrauen fassen und für immer ankommen darf. Vielleicht bei dir? Die Pflegestelle und Franny freuen sich auf netten Besuch.

About Franny

What life with Franny looks like

Franny is a puppy/kitten cat waiting at Katzenschutzfreunde Rhein-Ahr-Eifel e.V. in Schalkenbach.

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.
