How do I contact the shelter about Holly?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Katzenhaus-Freunde handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Holly on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Holly if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Katzenhaus-Freunde 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 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 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 Katzenhaus-Freunde early rather than rehoming privately; they know Holly 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.

Holly

Mixed Breed Cat · Female · Adult · 4 years

Hello, I am Holly and the mother of four super cute kittens. I take very loving care of my babies and always keep a good eye on them. Despite that, I also take the time for cuddles and enjoy being stroked and petted. I am a very curious little explorer and always need to know what is happening around me. Of course, I also love to eat and am always happy about delicious food. In total, I am a very loving, friendly, and caring cat mom. our shelter is part of Holly's Kitten group. We were contacted by a kind woman who discovered a cat mom with her kittens in her goat stable. She inquired about the surroundings and asked everywhere, but unfortunately, it seems the little cat family belongs to no one. We listed them at STMZ. Since the cats cannot stay with her and the cold temperatures are very difficult for the little ones and their mom outside, she asked us for help. Thanks to our great foster home, the cat family can now be safely taken in and allowed to warm up and rest. For the loving cat mom, we wish for a nice home later with a secure outdoor area in a green, rural environment where she can enjoy the freedom outside. For the kittens, we can also imagine a home in a suitable for apartment living environment with a secure balcony, depending on their personalities.

Hallo, ich bin Holly und die Mama von vier super süssen Kitten. Ich kümmere mich ganz liebevoll um meine Babys und passe immer gut auf sie auf. Trotzdem nehme ich mir auch gerne Zeit für Kuscheleinheiten und geniesse es sehr, gestreichelt und gekrault zu werden. Ich bin eine sehr neugierige kleine Entdeckerin und muss immer wissen, was gerade um mich herum passiert. Natürlich esse ich auch sehr gerne und freue mich immer über leckeres Futter. Insgesamt bin ich eine sehr liebe, zutrauliche und fürsorgliche Katzenmama Katze besuchen / adoptieren Geschichte der Gruppe Holly's Kitten Wir wurden von einer lieben Frau kontaktiert, die in ihrem Ziegenstall ein Katzenmami mit ihren Kitten entdeckt hat. Sie hat sich in der Umgebung erkundigt und überall nachgefragt, doch leider scheint die kleine Katzenfamilie niemandem zu gehören. Wir haben sie im STMZ ausgeschrieben. Da die Katzen nicht bei ihr bleiben können und die kalten Temperaturen für die Kleinen und ihre Mama draussen sehr schwierig sind, hat sie uns um Hilfe gebeten. Dank unserer tollen Pflegestelle konnte die Katzenfamilie gesichert und bei uns aufgenommen werden. Nun dürfen sie sich erst einmal in Sicherheit aufwärmen und zur Ruhe kommen. Für das liebe Katzenmami wünschen wir uns später ein schönes Zuhause mit Freigang in grüner, ländlicher Umgebung, wo sie die Freiheit draussen geniessen darf. Für die Kitten können wir uns – je nach Charakter – auch ein Zuhause in Wohnungshaltung mit gesichertem Balkon vorstellen. bekommtBesuch Holly reserviert Kaia reserviert Lino reserviert Loki reserviert Sammy

About Holly

What life with Holly looks like

Holly is a adult mixed breed cat cat waiting at Katzenhaus-Freunde in Zürich region.

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 Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.
