Gundula, Gisela, Goethe & Gustl

Mixed Breed · Male · Kitten · 2 months

These 4 little ones have had a tough fate: their mother was hit on a country road. Completely headless and helpless, the little ones ran around in the cornfield by the road that was to be mowed in a few days. Our team tried for 3 days to keep all the kittens safe and now the 2 cats and 2 kittens are in the Melle animal shelter. They are not happy here, because they probably only know the free life outside so far. We are looking for either patient people who want to take in the 8-10 week old kittens, who are aware that these little ones will need time to build trust and who can later allow them to go outside. We would also be happy for the little ones if they could live as valued farm cats in the future. In the first weeks, however, they must be accommodated in an escape-proof manner.

Ein hartes Schicksal haben diese 4 Kleinen erleben müssen: Ihre Mutter wurde auf einer Landstraße überfahren. Völlig kopf- und hilflos liefen die Kleinen in dem an der Straße liegenden Maisfeld herum das in wenigen Tagen abgemäht werden sollte. 3 Tage versuchte unser Team alle Kitten zu sicher und nun sind die 2 Katzen und 2 Kater im Tierheim Melle. Glücklich sind sie hier nicht, denn sie kennen wohl bisher nur das freie Leben draußen. Wir suchen entweder geduldige Menschen für die 8 – 10 Wochen alten Kitten aufnehmen möchten, sich bewußt sind, dass diese Kleinen Zeit brauchen werden bis sie Vertrauen aufbauen und die ihnen später unbedingt auch Freigang nach draußen ermöglichen können. Freuen würden wir uns für die Kleinen auch wenn sie zukünftig als wertgeschätzte Hofkatzen leben dürften. In den ersten Wochen müssen sich allerdings unbedingt ausbruchssicher untergebracht werden.

About Gundula, Gisela, Goethe & Gustl

What life with Gundula, Gisela, Goethe & Gustl looks like

Gundula, Gisela, Goethe & Gustl is a small puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Melle in Melle.

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 Gundula, Gisela, Goethe & Gustl, answered.

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