Joey, Samson und Wilma

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Adult · 6 years

Now Joey and Samson, born on April 30, 2024, are almost 2 years old...they were born in our animal shelter, their loving mother Wilma (born around 2020) was brought to us as a carrying, shy cat from Straßberg. As you can see in the video, Joey and Samson have ataxia. For a long time, we were worried about their lives, they had to endure a long treatment period and physiotherapies...but the two have fought their way into life and manage with their handicap, they know no different. Joey and Samson could not be more different in character. Samson, the bold daredevil, who still only reluctantly allows himself to be touched and doesn’t like other cats, except his brother and mother. Joey, on the other hand, is a real sunbeam, very trusting, and affectionate. Joey also has a more severe form of ataxia, but has adapted to it very well. Wilma is at first a reserved cat towards humans, but once she has your trust, she enjoys being stroked. She is open to other cats, so we would like a home for Wilma as a second cat to a loving fellow animal. Suitable for apartment living would be okay, but then only with a secured balcony or something similar, as she enjoys the time outdoors very much. Joey and Samson can only be rehomed together, also in a suitable for apartment living home with a secured balcony or terrace.

Nun sind Joey und Samson, geb. am 30.04.24 schon fast 2 Jahre alt...sie sind bei uns im Tierheim geboren, ihre liebe Mama Wilma (geb. ca. 2020) wurde uns damals als tragende scheue Katze aus Straßberg gebracht. Wie man im Video sehen kann, haben Joey und Samson Ataxie. Lange haben wir damals um ihre Leben gebangt, eine lange Behandlungszeit und Physiotherapien mussten sie über sich ergehen lassen...aber die 2 haben sich ihren Weg ins Leben erkämpft und kommen mit ihrem Handicap klar, sie kennen es ja nicht anders. Joey und Samson könnten vom Charakter nicht unterschiedlicher sein. Samson, der freche Draufgänger, der sich aber immer noch nur widerwillig anfassen lässt und andere Katzen, außer Bruder und Mama gar nicht mag. Joey dagegen ist ein richtiger Sonnenschein, sehr zutraulich und liebebedürftig. Joey hat auch eine schwerere Form der Ataxie, hat sich aber sehr gut damit arrangiert. Wilma ist anfangs eine zurückhaltende Katze uns Menschen gegenüber, hat man aber ihr Vertrauen, dann genießt sie es, gestreichelt zu werden. Sie ist offen anderen Katzen gegenüber, deshalb würden wir uns für Wilma ein Zuhause als Zweitkatze zu einem lieben Artgenossen wünschen. Wohnungshaltung wäre okay, dann aber nur mit einem gesicherten Balkon o.ä., da sie den Aufenthalt an der frischen Luft sehr genießt. Joey und Samson werden nur zusammen vermittelt, ebenfalls in Wohnungshaltung mit gesichertem Balkon oder Terrasse. Hinzu kommt noch eine Bedingung für eine

About Joey, Samson und Wilma

What life with Joey, Samson und Wilma looks like

Joey, Samson und Wilma is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Quedlinburg in Germany.

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 Joey, Samson und Wilma, answered.

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