Grisu

Mixed Breed · Female

Name: Grisu Age: still open. Gender: female, neutered Grisu has been living in the free-range enclosure for a long time. She lives there with other cats in the group and is somewhat skeptical of humans. She stays nearby but only allows herself to be touched by people she knows. She has a hip issue, so she will need to continue medication in her new home. Grisu will only be rehomed to a home with outdoor access, and people should be aware that she may not become a cuddly cat.

DE·Show original

Name: GrisuAlter: noch offen. Geschlecht: weiblich, kastriert Grisu lebt schon lange im Freigängergehege. Sie lebt dort mit anderen Katzen in der Gruppe und ist dem Menschen etwas sekptisch gegenüber. Sie ist in der Nähe aber lässt sich nur von ihr bekannten Personen anfassen. Sie hat ein Thema mit der Hüfte, sodass sie im neuen Zuhause Medikation weiter benötigt. Grisu wird nur in ein Zuhause mit Freigang vermittelt und Personen sollten sich darüber im klaren sein, dass sie eventuell keine Kuschelkatze wird.

About Grisu

What life with Grisu looks like

Grisu is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Oellschuetz in Germany.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇩🇪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 Grisu, answered.

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