Adopt Hila

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 9 years

Hila finds it far too boring at the animal shelter; she's looking for a home where there's always something happening. She loves action and shows herself to be very lively and playful. We estimate her age to be around seven months, and she has now been neutered. Hila also came to us as a stray and is now looking for a new home with the possibility of going outside later on. It would be great if there was already a young cat in the new home. Note: If you click on any of the following links, you will be redirected to the corresponding page. There, different privacy policies may apply. Open daily, including Sundays and public holidays:. This cat needs outdoor access.

Hila ist es im Tierheim viel zu langweilig, sie sucht ein Zuhause wo was los ist, sie mag Action und zeigt sich sehr aufgeweckt und verspielt. Wir schätzen ihr Alter auf circa sieben Monate, mittlerweile wurde sie kastriert. Auch Hila kam als Fundtier zu uns und sucht nun ein neues Zuhause mit späterem Freigang. Sehr gerne dürfte eine junge Katze im neuen Zuhause bereits vorhanden sein. Hinweis: Wenn sie einen der nachfolgenden Links anklicken werden sie auf die entsprechende Seite weiter geleitet.

About Hila

What life with Hila looks like

Hila is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Julias Tierheim Ahaus 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. 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 Hila, answered.

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