Adopt Kitten

European Shorthair · Unknown · Kitten

We have a few kitten babies available for adoption! Important: The current babies are not yet tame, so they might not be suitable for impatient people (like children). :) Since we only have recent litters, we are only placing the little ones in new homes in pairs!! The color of the litters can be seen in the pictures. Can you provide a nice home for 2 kittens? If so, please feel free to send in a written inquiry! This should definitely include:. This cat needs outdoor access. This cat is to be kept indoors only.

Sie können 2 Katzen ein schönes Zuhause bieten? Dann schicken Sie und doch gerne eine schriftliche Anfrage! Diese sollte unbedingt beinhalten: - Ob Freigang oder reine Wohnungshaltung- Ob andere Tiere im Haushalt sind- Ob Kinder im Haushalt sind- Wunschgeschlecht und -Farbe, wenn vorhanden- Katzenerfahren oder -unerfahren- Nach Bedarf weitere wichtige Informationen- Telefonnummer für Rückfragen

About Kitten

What life with Kitten looks like

Kitten is a small puppy/kitten european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Heppenheim in Germany.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇩🇪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 Kitten, answered.

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