Karina

Female

Die kleine Karina wurde gefunden – und niemand hat sie vermisst. Wir wissen nicht, ob sie ausgesetzt wurde oder ob sie irgendwo ausgebüxt ist. Eine Straßenkatze ist sie jedenfalls nicht, denn sie ist zu zahm. Karina ist sehr verspielt und wir suchen für sie ein schönes Zuhause, in dem es einen gleichaltrigen Spielkameraden für sie gibt. Neben Katzengesellschaft wünscht sie sich auch nette Menschen – gerne eine Familie mit größeren Kindern –, die viel Zeit für sie haben. Sie ist wirklich absolut zauberhaft, unser kleines Opossum. Wenn Sie sich für die Adoption von Karina interessieren, schreiben Sie uns bitte eine ausführliche E-Mail.

About Karina

What life with Karina looks like

Karina is a adult cat waiting at Tierheim Bergheim in Bergheim.

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 Karina, answered.

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