How do I contact the shelter about Hörnchen?

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

Can I adopt Hörnchen if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Oelzschau 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 Hörnchen 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 Hörnchen 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 Oelzschau early rather than rehoming privately; they know Hörnchen 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.

Hörnchen

European Shorthair · Female · Young · 1 year

Hörnchen gave birth to four kittens for us and is currently still tenderly taking care of her offspring. After the departure of her kittens and her upcoming spaying, she is ready to start a new chapter and move into her own home. The young female cat is very people-oriented, exceptionally friendly, and enjoys cuddles to the fullest. With her balanced and charming personality, she is a wonderful companion for everyday life. We are placing Hörnchen with a similarly aged cat who is suitable for apartment living. Hörnchen is, of course, vaccinated, microchipped, and dewormed. If you would like to give this special cat a loving home, we look forward to your inquiry! Please send us an email with the fully completed interested party application form if you are interested in one of our animals, or contact us via our contact form with any questions.

About Hörnchen

What life with Hörnchen looks like

Hörnchen is a young adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Oelzschau in Oelzschau.

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.
