How do I contact the shelter about Frau Holle?

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

Can I adopt Frau Holle if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Seelenkatzen 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 Frau Holle 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 Frau Holle 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 Seelenkatzen e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Frau Holle 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.

Frau Holle

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Current Location: Barlad, Romania Age: Born around May 2025 Gender: Female Personality: Initially shy, social Specialties: None (NO SOLITARY HOUSING) Hello dear cat lover, my name is Frau Holle, this name was given to me by a kind supporter, and I am a young female cat looking for a home. I was born on the street near trash containers, together with my siblings. A loving animal rescuer found me there, and we survived only thanks to food times from people. She fed us with cat food and slowly we began to trust her. I even followed her to the vicinity of her shop. But that also brought me closer to cars, which was dangerous. So she took me to her shop, where other cats had found shelter before. My new foster mom was worried that the others wouldn't accept me. I was very afraid at first, but the other cats were kind to me. I wish for a fellow animal of the same age in my new home, and I would also bring someone from here. Ask my fosterer for more information. I am already neutered. Before travel arrangements, I have received my first vaccinations (cat distemper, cat flu, and rabies) and will be microchipped. Before I travel to you, I will also receive Spot on and worming. You can read all of this in my EU pet passport. This animal can be anxious in unfamiliar situations.

Aktueller Aufenthaltsort: 56076 Koblenz Alter: geb. ca. Mai 2025 Geschlecht: weiblich, kastriert Charakter: anfangs schüchtern, sozial, verspielt Besonderheiten: Felines Asthma (KEINE Einzelhaltung) Hallo lieber Katzenfreund, mein Name ist Frau Holle, diesen Namen hat mir eine liebe Unterstützerin gegeben, und ich bin eine junge Katzendame auf der Suche nach einem Zuhause. Ich wurde auf der Straße in der Nähe von Müllcontainern geboren, gemeinsam mit meinen Geschwistern. Eine liebe Tierschützerin fand mich dort, wir überlebten bis dorthin nur dank Essensresten von Menschen. Sie fütterte uns mit Katzenfutter und so langsam vertrauten wir ihr. Ich folgte ihr dann sogar bis in die Nähe ihres Ladens. Aber dadurch kam ich den Autos auch zu nahe, es war zu gefährlich. Sie nahm mich also mit in den Laden, in dem auch schon andere Katzen einen Unterschlupf bekommen haben. Die Tierschützerin machte sich Sorgen, dass die anderen mich nicht akzeptieren würden. Ich war am Anfang sehr ängstlich, aber die anderen Katzen waren lieb zu mir. Nun durfte ich vor kurzem nach Deutschland auf eine Pflegestelle reisen. Hier sind auch andere Katzen. Es zeigt sich, dass ich sehr verspielt bin und deshalb einen Katzenkumpel brauche, der das auch gut findet. Du kannst darüber auch gern mit meiner Vermittlerin sprechen. Vor kurzem habe ich ganz schlecht Luft bekommen. Meine Pflegeeltern haben schnell reagiert und mich in deine Tierklinik gebracht. Dort stellte man bei mir Felines Asthma fest. Du kennst das vielleicht von Menschen. Ich muss also zwei mal täglich inhalieren, das mache ich mittlerweile auch super mit, da meine Pflegeeltern das toll trainiert haben. Für den Notfall habe ich auch ein Spray bekommen. Bisher brauchte ich das zum Glück nicht. Die Tierärztin sagt, dass ich damit genauso alt werden kann wie jede andere Katze. Bis hoffentlich bald, deine Frau Holle
