Jolanda

European Shorthair · Female · Adult · 9 years

I am Jolanda … a loving little free spirit looking for a family. At first, I am quite shy and jumpy. But eventually, my curiosity wins out, and with calmness and trust, I come to enjoy being with people. I am playful and love adventures. I also get along well with other cats. I wish for … a loving home (a house with a garden) where I can be happy both inside and outside. Children living in the household should already be a bit older. I could also get along with compatible cats. Can I find my home with you? Please contact me if you are interested through the form below. I can't wait to meet you!

Ich bin Jolanda … ein lieber kleiner Freigeist auf der Suche nach Familienanschluss. Das bin ich: Anfangs bin ich recht scheu und schreckhaft. Aber natürlich siegt irgendwann die Neugier und ich komme bei Ruhe und Vertrauen zu den Menschen. Ich bin verspielt und freue mich über Abenteuer. Auch mit anderen Katzen komme ich gut aus. Ich wünsche mir … ein liebevolles Zuhause (Haus mit Garten) in ländlicher Gegend, in dem ich drinnen und draußen glücklich bin. Im Haushalt lebende Kinder sollten schon etwas älter sein. Auch zu passenden Katzen könnte ich ziehen. Darf ich bei dir mein Zuhause finden? Melde dich bei Interesse über das untenstehende Anfrageformular. Ich freue mich schon auf dich!

About Jolanda

What life with Jolanda looks like

Jolanda is a small adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Berlin in Berlin.

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 Jolanda, answered.

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