Honey

British Shorthair · Female · Adult · 4 years

Menschen gegenüber gibt sich Honey als zugängliche und verschmuste Katzendame. Auch zeigt sie sich bei uns verträglich, weiß sich gegenüber Artgenossen aber durchaus zu behaupten und hat ihren eigenen Kopf. Für sie wünschen wir uns ein Zuhause, in dem bereits eine etwa gleichaltrige soziale Katze lebt. Wenn Sie Interesse an einer unserer Katzen haben, kontaktieren Sie uns bevorzugt per E-Mail. Schildern Sie uns in der Mail, wie die Katze bei Ihnen leben wird und senden Sie uns eine Telefonnummer zu. Es wird sich dann ein*e TierpflegerIn bei Ihnen melden. Tierbeschreibungen basieren auf Beobachtungen im Tierheim oder auf Informationen Dritter und stellen keine zugesicherten Eigenschaften dar.

About Honey

What life with Honey looks like

Honey is an adult british shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Leipzig in Leipzig.

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 Honey, answered.

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