Kiriko & Klara

European Shorthair · Female · Young · 2 years

Klara und Kiriko haben beide ihre ganz eigene Geschichte und wünschen sich nun ein gemeinsames Zuhause, in dem sie in Ruhe ankommen und Vertrauen fassen dürfen. Klara wurde bei uns abgegeben, nachdem die Person, die eigentlich nur auf sie aufpassen sollte, für ihre ursprüngliche Besitzerin plötzlich nicht mehr erreichbar war. Aktuell zeigt sich Klara noch etwas schüchtern und unsicher. Dabei ist sie eine ganz liebe und freundliche Katze, die einfach etwas Zeit braucht, um sich in einer neuen Umgebung sicher zu fühlen. Sie ist nicht aggressiv, sondern begegnet neuen Situationen zunächst vorsichtig. Kiriko ist eine unserer Mamakatzen. Sie wurde von der Streunerhilfe Remscheid eingefangen und durfte bei uns in Sicherheit ihre Babys zur Welt bringen und liebevoll großziehen. Noch ist sie sehr scheu und zurückhaltend. Deshalb braucht sie geduldige Menschen, die ihr mit Ruhe und Einfühlungsvermögen begegnen und ihr die Zeit geben, die sie benötigt, um Vertrauen zu entwickeln. Beide brauchen Menschen, die keine Erwartungen an sie stellen und ihnen zeigen, dass sie in ihrem neuen Zuhause sicher sind. Mit Geduld, Verständnis und viel Liebe können sie Schritt für Schritt lernen, sich zu entspannen und ihre neue Umgebung zu genießen. Klara und Kiriko werden gemeinsam vermittelt, denn sie sollen ihren weiteren Lebensweg zusammen gehen dürfen. ❤️

About Kiriko & Klara

What life with Kiriko & Klara looks like

Kiriko & Klara is a large young adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierschutz Leverkusen e.V. in Leverkusen.

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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Kiriko & Klara, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Kiriko & Klara?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutz Leverkusen e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Kiriko & Klara on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Kiriko & Klara if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutz Leverkusen 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Kiriko & Klara 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 Kiriko & Klara 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 Tierschutz Leverkusen e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Kiriko & Klara 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.
