Kira

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Kira – a charmer… Kira is a captivating, very pretty cat lady with an extremely affectionate nature. Curious and interested, she immediately inspected everything with the most wonderful eyes upon her arrival at her foster home and won the heart of her foster mom with a storm of her gaze. Her plush paws are cuddly and in need of snuggling, but she also knows when enough is enough – not rudely, but very gently she places her paw on the stroking hand. She not only possesses a special charm but is also an extremely pleasant, very clever roommate who enjoys learning from her human. Kira lived as a single cat with dogs, but we believe she would prefer to forgo such company in the future – curiously, she follows commands like sit and give paw… This dear girl is accustomed to apartment living, but she constantly searches for a glimpse outside, so we wish for a secure balcony or terrace or an escape-proof small garden for her paws in the new home. Our "Pretty Woman" has a minor flaw in her gait. It’s not perfect, so not suitable for a catwalk… The poor little mouse apparently received a severe kick as a kitten that was not treated. A severe tug on the tail could also be a possibility. Therefore, her gait is slightly off to the side, but her mobility is not affected. Regular fur care is essential!

DE·Show original

Kira – eine, die verzaubert … Kira ist eine bezaubernde, sehr hübsche Katzen-Dame mit einem äußerst liebevollen Wesen. Neugierig und interessiert hat sie bei Ankunft in ihrer Pflegestelle sofort alles genauestens inspiziert und mit einem Blick aus ihren wundervollen Augen im Sturm das Herz der Pflegemama erobert. Das Samtpfötchen ist verschmust, anlehnungsbedürftig, zeigt aber auch, wann es “genug“ ist – nicht ruppig, nein ganz sanft legt sie dann ihr Pfötchen auf die streichelnde Hand. Sie besitzt nicht nur einen ganz besonderen Charme, sondern sie ist auch eine überaus angenehme, sehr kluge Mitbewohnerin, die es mag, von Ihrem Menschen zu lernen. Kira hat als Einzelkatze mit Hunden zusammengelebt, aber wir glauben, dass sie auf „solche“ Gesellschaft künftig gerne verzichtet – lustigerweise befolgt sie jedoch Kommandos wie Sitz und Pfote geben… Das liebe Mädel ist bisher reine Wohnungshaltung gewohnt, sucht aber ständig den Blick nach draußen, so dass wir uns im neuen Domizil einen gesicherten Balkon/Terrasse oder “ausbruchsicheren“ kleinen Garten für das Pfötchen wünschen. Einen kleinen Schönheitsfehler hat unsere „Pretty Woman“. Ihr Gangbild ist nicht perfekt, also nicht für den Catwalk geeignet… Das arme Mäuschen hat anscheinend als junges Kätzchen einen heftigen Tritt bekommen, der nicht behandelt wurde. Auch ein heftiger Zug am Schwanz wäre möglich. Ihr Gang fällt deshalb etwas seitlich ab, ihre Beweglichkeit ist nicht beeinträchtigt. Eine regelmäßige Fellpflege ist unumgänglich!

About Kira

What life with Kira looks like

Kira is a small adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierhilfe Franken e.V. in Lauf.

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 Kira, answered.

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