Jane Marie

Female

Specials: Apartment, secure balcony. Corona positive. The shy Jane Marie here. My people brought me to the animal shelter because I no longer felt comfortable at home. Why, I don't know? Generally, I am a very insecure and reserved cat who requires a lot of time and empathy. Once the ice is broken, I am definitely a great cat. Unfortunately, other cats are not really my thing. Do you perhaps have the calmness and patience I need?.

Besonderheiten: Wohnung, gesicherter Balkon. Corona positiv. Die schüchterne Jane Marie hier. Meine Menschen haben mich in das Tierheim gebracht, weil ich mich Zuhause nicht mehr wohlgefühlt habe. Warum auch immer? Grundsätzlich bin ich eine sehr unsichere und zurückhaltende Katze die sehr viel Zeit und Einfühlungsvermögen benötigt. Wenn das Eis einmal gebrochen ist, bin ich bestimmt eine ganz tolle Katze. Andere Katzen sind leider nicht so mein Ding. Hast du vielleicht die Ruhe und Geduld, die ich benötige?

About Jane Marie

What life with Jane Marie looks like

Jane Marie is a adult cat waiting at Tierheim Essen in Essen.

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 Jane Marie, answered.

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