Adopt Gioconda

Female

The beautiful Gioconda stands out with her tortoiseshell coloring. She was born in 2017 and is a very social cat who gets along well with both cats and dogs. She lived in a controlled colony in Spain, but she is far too loving and social to remain on the streets. Therefore, our Spanish partner took in the beautiful female cat. Gioconda loves her cuddles and snuggles above all, really anything where she can spend time with her people. Gioconda has only one eye, and it is suspected that she may have lost the other in an accident. However, she manages wonderfully with this. She has a bit of trouble judging distances, so she should not go outside. Thus, she will be rehomed as an indoor cat with feline company. She would also be happy to bring one of her friends, such as Gala or Dionisio. Upon arrival, Gioconda will be vaccinated, dewormed, and microchipped, as well as spayed. Additionally, she will be tested for FIV and FeLV. Would you like to give the wonderful Gioconda a new home where she can be happy forever?

Die wunderschöne Gioconda sticht durch ihre Schilpattfärbung heraus. Sie wurde 2017 und eine sehr soziale Katze, die sich sowohl mit Katzen als auch mit Hunden verträgt. Sie lebte in einer kontrollierten Kolonie in Spanien, ist aber von ihrem Wesen her viel zu lieb und sozial, um weiterhin auf der Straße zu bleiben. Daher hat unserer spanische Partner die wunderschöne Katzendame bei sich aufgenommen. Gioconda liebt ihre Kuschel- und Streicheleinheiten über alles, eigentlich alles, wo sie Zeit mit ihren Menschen verbringen kann. Gioconda hat nur ein Auge und man vermutet, dass sie das andere Auge vielleicht bei einem Unfall verloren hat. Damit kommt sie aber wunderbar zurecht. Das Einschätzen von Distanzen fällt ihr etwas schwer und daher sollte sie nicht rausgehen. Somit wird sie in Wohnungskatze mit Katzengesellschaft vermittelt. Gerne kann sie auch einen ihre Freunde mitbringen, bspw. Gala oder Dionisio. Bei Einreise wird Gioconda geimpft, entwurmt und gechippt sowie kastriert sein. Des Weiteren wird sie auf FiV und FelV getestet. Möchtest du der wundervollen Gioconda ein neues Zuhause geben, in dem sie für immer glücklich sein darf?

About Gioconda

What life with Gioconda looks like

Gioconda is a adult cat waiting at Aktion Tierisch Happy e.V. in Germany.

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 Gioconda, answered.

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