Holly &#8211

Mixed Breed · Female

I am female, neutered, and born in 2006. I have been waiting since early 2019 for a new home. My caretakers say about me: Holly is a return cat, as the owners' professional lives changed so much that the entire animal population had to be dissolved. She came to us with two other cats and is purely suitable for apartment living. She is clingy, loving, and uncomplicated. Whether she lives with or without other animals, Holly is relatively indifferent. She gets along with them but does not place a high value on it. What is much more important to her are her people and their attention. She would also be happy to live outdoors if Holly likes that. She is low-maintenance, cuddly, and affectionate. Whether she is rehomed into a family with children or as a companion for a retiree, it doesn’t matter to her. As long as she becomes the center of her new family…

Ich bin weiblich, kastriert und 2006 geboren. Ich warte seit Anfang 2019 auf ein neues Zuhause. Das sagen meine Betreuer über mich: Holly ist eine Abgabekatze, da die Besitzer sich beruflich derart verändert haben, das der komplette Tierbestand aufgelöst werden musste. Sie kam mit zwei weiteren Katzen zu uns und stammt aus reiner Wohnungshaltung.Sie ist anhänglich, lieb und unkompliziert.Ob sie mit oder ohne Artgenossen lebt, ist Holly relativ gleich.Sie kommt mit ihnen zurecht, legt aber keinen gesteigerten Wert darauf. Viel wichtiger sind ihr ihre Menschen und deren Aufmerksamkeit.Gern könnte sie auch als späterer Freigänger leben, wenn Holly das mag. Sie ist anspruchslos und verschmust und anschmiegsam. Ob sie in eine Familie mit Kindern oder als Gesellschafterin für einen Ruheständler vermittelt wird ist ihr gleich.Hauptsache sie wird der Mittelpunkt ihrer neuen Familie…

About Holly &#8211

What life with Holly &#8211 looks like

Holly &#8211 is a medium-sized adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Schkortitz in Grimma.

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 Holly &#8211, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Holly &#8211?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Schkortitz handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Holly &#8211 on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Holly &#8211 if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Schkortitz 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 Holly &#8211 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 Holly &#8211 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 Schkortitz early rather than rehoming privately; they know Holly &#8211 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.
