Granda

European Shorthair · Unknown · Kitten · 4 months

Granda has raised her kittens at our animal shelter and is now searching for her new home. Granda is a rather reserved and shy cat. She still doesn't particularly enjoy being cuddled and prefers to hide. However, when there are treats, she will also venture out and accept them gratefully. We wish for a family for Granda who can offer her a lot of patience and the time she needs to warm up. Granda gets along well with other cats and would be happy to have another cat in her new home.

Granda hat ihre Kitten bei uns im Tierheim großgezogen und sucht jetzt ihr neues Zuhause. Granda ist eine eher zurückhaltende und scheue Katze. Kuscheln mag sie noch nicht so gerne und versteckt sich lieber. Wenn es aber mal Leckerlies gibt, traut sich sie auch mal raus und nimmt sie dankend an. Wir wünschen uns eine Familie für Granda, mit viel Geduld und die ihr die Zeit gibt, die sie braucht um aufzutauen. Granda versteht sich gut mit anderen Katzen und würde sich über eine weitere Katze im neuen Zuhause freuen.

About Granda

What life with Granda looks like

Granda is a large puppy/kitten european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Northeim.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Granda, answered.

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