Adopt Frieda

European Shorthair · Female · Young · 1 year

Frieda arrived as a drop-off cat. During the intake examination at the animal shelter, a heart defect was discovered. This currently does not need to be treated but must be regularly monitored. Potential owners of Frieda should be aware of possible veterinary costs and be prepared for the fact that Frieda may not live to be a very old cat. At our shelter, Frieda shows a somewhat shy but friendly demeanor and gets along well with other cats.

Frieda ist als Abgabekatze zu uns gekommen. Bei der Eingangsuntersuchung im Tierheim hat sich ein angeborener Herzfehler herausgestellt. Dieser muss aktuell noch nicht behandelt aber natürlich regelmäßig kontrolliert werden. Interessenten für Frieda sollten sich über mögliche Tierarztkosten im Klaren sein und damit leben können, dass Frieda vielleicht keine sehr alte Katze werden wird. Bei uns zeigt Frieda sich als etwas schüchtern aber nett und auch mit anderen Katzen gut verträglich. Zurück zur unseren Tieren Pate werden

About Frieda

What life with Frieda looks like

Frieda is a young adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Koblenz in Koblenz.

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 Frieda, answered.

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