Kiki

Female · Senior · 14 years

Kiki is one of so many other animals who, in their old age, have lost everything: primary caregiver, home, familiar environment - all gone! From one moment to the next, nothing is as it once was for the animal. Fortunately, after a few days of mourning, she has accepted her new home - our orange cat room - very well. She visibly feels comfortable, lying on her scratching post in the sun or high up on the wall in the cuddle cave. She follows into the kitchen and waits impatiently for her food; she is a real treasure and, despite her advanced age, is healthy and fit. Kiki is a very loving, cuddly little pet who enjoys being brushed, cuddled, and loved. It's really a shame that she can't spend the rest of her life on the couch and in the arms of a loving person. Become a sponsor for this delightful, beautiful cat!

Kiki ist eines von so vielen anderen Tieren, die im hohen Alter alles verloren haben: Bezugsperson, Wohnung, gewohnte Umgebung - alles weg! Von einer Minute auf die andere ist für das Tier nichts mehr so wie es einmal war. Glücklicherweise hat sie nach ein paar Tagen der Trauer ihr neues Zuhause - unser oranges Katzenzimmer - gut akzeptiert, sie fühlt sich sichtlich wohl, liegt auf ihrem Kratzbaum in der Sonne oder hoch oben an der Wand in der Kuschelhöhle. Sie geht mit in die Küche und wartet dort ungeduldig auf ihr Futter, sie ist ein richtiger Goldschatz und mit ihrem gesetzten Alter auch gesund und fit. Kiki ist eine ganz liebe, verschmuste Schmeichelmaus, sie mag gebürstet werden, gekuschelt und geliebt werden. Eigentlich schade, dass sie nun ihr restliches Leben nicht mehr auf der Couch und in den Armen eines lieben Menschen verbringen darf. Werden Sie Pate/Patin dieser entzückenden, hübschen Katze!

About Kiki

What life with Kiki looks like

Kiki is a senior cat waiting at Tierschutzhof Ering in Germany.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇩🇪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 Kiki, answered.

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