Adopt Gloria & Tayo

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Tayo and his sister Gloria have been residents of Cat Angels for a long time. Both are very shy and hide in unfamiliar situations. It took them a long time to get close to people. Then Tayo had to fight a long battle with his diarrhea, which simply wouldn’t go away. But now the two can start afresh in a beautiful, new home with nice and especially patient people. Once they have gained some confidence, they enjoy being stroked, lying in bed with them, and cuddling. But that takes time and patience. Tayo and Gloria were born in May 2025 and only want to embark on the adventure that a permanent home brings together. If Tayo and Gloria were to be asked, their ideal home would look like this: a beautifully and securely screened balcony, nice people who would like to grab a fishing rod and play cat entertainer, but also have a lot of patience in the first time until trust has grown, and last but not least, good, high-quality food, so that Tayo does not get diarrhea again. The two are familiar with small, cat-friendly dogs and get along well with them. Children seem to overwhelm them. They are vaccinated, microchipped, neutered, and tested negative for FIV and FeLV. Gloria and Tayo can be visited at their foster home in 51103 Köln. They might make themselves invisible, but perhaps a glimpse from afar is possible. We are certainly crossing our fingers for all involved! If you are cat-experienced enough and want to give the two shy, but promising, velvet paws a good home, please get in touch.

Tayo und seine Schwester Gloria sind schon lange Schützlinge der Katzen-Engel. Beide sind anfangs sehr schüchtern und verstecken sich in ihnen unbekannten Situationen. Sie haben lange gebraucht, bis sie sich annähern konnten. Dann musste Tayo lange Zeit gegen seinen Durchfall kämpfen, der einfach nicht besser wurde. Aber jetzt können die beiden durchstarten in ein schönes, neues Zuhause bei netten und besonders geduldigen Menschen. Wenn sie Zutrauen gefasst haben, lassen sie sich gerne streicheln, liegen mit im Bett und lieben es zu kuscheln. Aber das braucht Zeit und Geduld. Die beiden sind im Mai 2025 geboren und möchten nur gemeinsam in das Abenteuer ziehen, das ein endgültiges Zuhause mit sich bringt. Wenn man Tayo und Gloria fragen würde, sähe ihr ideales Heim wie folgt aus: schöner und sicher eingenetzter Balkon, nette Menschen, die sich gerne mal eine Spielangel schnappen und Katzen-Entertainer spielen möchten, aber auch in der ersten Zeit viel Geduld haben, bis das Vertrauen gewachsen ist und last but not least gutes, hochwertiges Futter, damit Tayo nicht schon wieder Durchfall bekommt. Die beiden kennen kleinere, katzenverträgliche Hunde und kommen gut mit ihnen aus. Kinder scheinen sie schon zu überfordern. Sie sind geimpft, gechipt, kastriert, negativ auf FIV und FeLV getestet und werden mit Schutzvertrag und einer Schutzgebühr in Höhe von 350,00 EUR vermittelt. Besucht werden können Gloria und Tayo auf ihrer Pflegestelle in 51103 Köln. Vermutlich werden sie sich aber unsichtbar machen. Doch vielleicht ist ein Blick aus der Ferne möglich. Wir drücken jedenfalls allen Beteiligten die Daumen! Wenn Sie katzenerfahren genug sind und den beiden schüchternen Samtpfoten, die aber viel Potential haben, ein gutes Zuhause schenken möchten, melden Sie sich gerne unter .

About Gloria & Tayo

What life with Gloria & Tayo looks like

Gloria & Tayo is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Katzen-Engel 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 Gloria & Tayo, answered.

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