Gwendoline

Female · Adult · 10 years

Gwendoline, a nearly blind cat, has been with us since 11.07.2026. She is currently in need of a new foster family as she must leave her current foster home. Gwendoline is confident and independent, and she enjoys being pampered and groomed. She is very particular about her food, but it is essential that she eats regularly to avoid problems with her bowel movements. Gwendoline is a sweet cat who does not necessarily need to be around other cats. For more information, please call 03841 - 79 01 79.

Bei uns seit: 11.07.2026 · Notfall Haltung als Einzelkatze Leider muss Gwendoline ihre Pflegestelle verlassen, daher suchen wir dringend eine neue Pflegefamilie für sie. Gwendoline ist fast blind, kommt damit allerdings sehr gut zurecht. Selbstbewusst und eigenständig geht sie durch ihr Leben. Schmuseeinheiten dürfen in ihrem neuen Zuhause nicht fehlen. Sie mag es sogar, wenn sie gebürstet wird. Was Futter angeht, ist sie sehr wählerisch. Es ist allerdings wichtig, dass sie gleichmäßig frisst, da sie sonst Probleme mit dem Kotabsatz bekommt. Gwendoline ist eine sehr liebe Katze, die aber nicht unbedingt Artgenossen um sich haben möchte. 03841 - 79 01 79

About Gwendoline

What life with Gwendoline looks like

Gwendoline is an adult cat waiting at Tierheim Dorf Mecklenburg 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Gwendoline, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Gwendoline?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Dorf Mecklenburg handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Gwendoline on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Gwendoline if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Dorf Mecklenburg 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Gwendoline 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 Gwendoline 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 Dorf Mecklenburg early rather than rehoming privately; they know Gwendoline 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.
