Halina

European Shorthair · Female · Adult · 7 years

Halina is an ideal second or third cat, super-compatible and friendly. She reacts initially reserved to strangers but immediately goes around her handler's legs and cuddles. She doesn't like being on the arm that much. We are looking for a quiet home for the pretty Halina with nice fellow cats. Of course, it will take some patience until she is as accessible as she is now at the foster home. Outdoor access in a traffic-calmed environment or outdoor accommodation such as a farm with access to sheds or garden house would be possible. Contact: If you would like to get to know Halina, please contact Mrs. Normann at 02247/8460.

ideale Zweitkatze Status: offen Name: Halina Rasse: EKH Geschlecht: weiblich/kastriert Farbe: tricolor Alter: 7 Jahre Verträglich mit: Artgenossen Halina hat viele Jahre auf einem Bauernhof in einer großen Katzengruppe gelebt. Sie kam mit großen Wunden an Oberschenkel und Schwanz zu uns… Nach tierärztlicher Behandlung ist alles problemlos abgeheilt. Eine ausführliche Diagnostik ergab „nur“ eine Flohallergie. Mit dieser Diagnose kann sie aber nicht auf den Bauernhof zurück, sie braucht zwingend eine flohfreie Umgebung bzw. Prophylaxe. Halina ist die ideale Zweit- oder Drittkatze, superverträglich und freundlich. Bei Fremden reagiert sie allerdings zunächst zurückhaltend. Ihrer Bezugsperson geht sie aber sofort um die Beine und schmust. Nur auf den Arm mag sie nicht so gern. Wunschzuhause: Für die hübsche Halina suchen wir ein ruhiges Zuhause mit netten Artgenossen. Natürlich wird es etwas Geduld brauchen, bis sie so zugänglich wie jetzt auf der Pflegestelle ist. Freigang in einer verkehrsberuhigten Umgebung oder eine Außenunterbringung wie auf dem Bauernhof mit Zugang zu Schuppen oder Gartenhaus wäre möglich. Kontakt: Wenn Sie Halina gerne kennen lernen möchten, melden Sie sich gerne bei Frau Normann 02247/ 8460

About Halina

What life with Halina looks like

Halina is a large adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierschutzverein 7 Gebirge e.V. — Orscheider Hof 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 Halina, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Halina?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein 7 Gebirge e.V. — Orscheider Hof handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Halina on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Halina if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzverein 7 Gebirge e.V. — Orscheider Hof 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 Halina 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 Halina 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 Tierschutzverein 7 Gebirge e.V. — Orscheider Hof early rather than rehoming privately; they know Halina 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.
