Kati

European Shorthair · Unknown · Adult · 8 years

Kati is a cuddly kitty who is initially cautious around unfamiliar people. If given some time to get acquainted with her surroundings and the new situation, she soon builds trust and then enjoys her first cuddles. Due to her overweight, Kati still needs to follow a strict diet plan. However, she is active and enjoys her daily excursions, which is why she is looking for a new home with outdoor access.

DE·Show original

Kati ist eine anschmiegsame Kätzin, die ihr unbekannten Personen zunächst noch vorsichtig gegenübertritt. Gibt man ihr etwas Zeit, um sich mit ihrem Gegenüber und der neuen Situation vertraut zu machen, fasst sie aber bald Vertrauen und genießt dann erste Streicheleinheiten. Kati muss sich aufgrund ihres Übergewichts noch an einen strikten Ernährungsplan halten. Sie ist aber aktiv und genießt ihre täglichen Streifzüge, weshalb sie ein neues Zuhause mit Freigang sucht.

About Kati

What life with Kati looks like

Kati is a adult european shorthair cat waiting at Sonnenhof Eisenstadt (Sonnentiere) in Austria.

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 Austria

Austrian shelters follow the federal Tierschutzgesetz framework: adopters sign a Schutzvertrag (protection contract) committing to the animal's welfare. Spay/neuter, microchip, and vaccinations are included; fees typically range €150–€350.

Frequently asked

Adopting Kati, answered.

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