How do I contact the shelter about Johanna?

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

Can I adopt Johanna if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Brandenburg an der Havel 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 Johanna 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 Johanna 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 Brandenburg an der Havel early rather than rehoming privately; they know Johanna 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.

Johanna

Mixed Breed · Female

Dear animal shelter parents, this is Johanna!! I would like to thank you once again with a big meow and purr for the time at the shelter, it was perhaps not always easy, but I just didn't like the cats around me... Well, now I've been here with my new people for four weeks, I really like it here. Recently I've even gone outside. The door was a bit open and so I just went out. I quickly came back in, totally shocked, because the tomcat Charlie, I think that's his name, wanted to get into my fur... Men!!! My first night was so exciting, I had to get to know my new apartment and the person who picked me up was always there, I even forgot to unpack my suitcase. Did I have any? Anyway, I don't lack anything here. I even watch TV sometimes, Animal, Animal, I really like it... Oh yeah, I also go to the toilet, once I confused my basket, it was so soft... can happen. I'm just glad I found my new people, they are nice and kind to me!! I have to check again, I'm hungry!!! Your Johanna Kuchenzahn (am I really called that??) A few more words from the person!! Yes, Johanna has adapted well and is in a good mood. She runs around the apartment, talks a lot, loses her shyness and is quite curious. One morning she brought me some cookies in bed at 4:45, clear message, I had to get up and we wanted to have breakfast!! She has also discovered the outdoor area, and when she's had enough, she comes back inside. It's a nice feeling to give an animal a nice home. I'm sending some pictures along, unfortunately there was a problem with the brightness...

Ihr lieben Tierheimeltern, hier schreibt Johanna !! Ich möchte mich nochmal mit einem ganz lieben Miau und Schnurr bei Euch für die Zeit im Tierheim bedanken, war ja vielleicht nicht immer leicht, aber ich mochte halt die Katzis nicht so um mich herum... Naja, nun bin ich schon 4 Wochen hier bei meinen neuen Menschen, ich finde es ganz toll hier seit einigen Tagen gehe ich sogar schon nach draußen. Die Tür stand ein bischen offen und da bin ich halt raus. Völlig entsetzt bin ich aber schnell wieder rein, Kater Charlie, so heißt er glaub ich wollte mir ans Fell .... Männer !!! Meine erste Nacht war ja sowas von aufregend, ich mußte ja meine neue Wohnung kennenlernen und immer war der Mensch noch da, der mich abgeholt hat, hab auch ganz vergessen, meine Koffer auszupacken. Hatte ich überhaupt welche ??? Na egal, mir fehlt es hier an nichts. Ich schaue sogar ab und zu mal Fernsehen, Tierisch, Tierisch gefällt mir ganz gut ... Ach ja, auf die Toilette geh ich auch, einmal hab ich mein Körbchen verwechselt, war so schön weich .... kann ja mal passieren. Ich bin jedenfalls froh, meine neuen Menschen gefunden zu haben, die sind ganz nett und lieb zu mir !! So ich muß nochmal schauen, ich hab Hunger !!! Eure Johanna Kuchenzahn (heiß ich eigentlich wirklich so ??) Noch ein paar Worte vom Menschen !! Ja die Johanna hat sich gut eingelebt und ist gut drauf. Sie tobt durch die Wohnung, erzählt viel, verliert auch ihre Unsicherheiten und ist recht neugierig. Eine Morgens brachte sie mir um 4 45 ein paar Kekse ins Bett, klare Ansage, ich muß aufstehen und wir wollen frühstücken !! Mittlerweile hat sie auch den Außenbereich für sich entdeckt,wenn es ihr reicht ist sie auch wieder drinnen. Schönes Gefühl einem Tier ein schönes zu Hause zu geben Ich schicke noch ein paar Bilder mit, leider gab es da wohl ein Problem mit der Helligkeit ... Ein Bild zeigt sie übrigens mit einer leichten Milchmaske gegen angebliche Falten und Johanna beim Höhlenbau Unsere .V.

About Johanna

What life with Johanna looks like

Johanna is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Brandenburg an der Havel in Brandenburg.

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.
