Adopt Kitty

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Adult · 10 years

The cat Kitty was found in Lügde at the end of February and brought to us at our shelter. Although friendly and open, she was not reported missing anywhere. Kitty is now looking for a loving family that will never leave her behind. In her new home, she would like to be pampered as a single princess. After settling in, Kitty would like to have free roam again. Her new surroundings should be appropriately quiet. Animal shelter account: Tierschutz der Tat e.V. This cat needs outdoor access.

Die Katze Kitty wurde Ende Februar in Lügde gefunden und zu uns ins Tierheim gebracht. Obwohl freundlich und aufgeschlossen, wurde sie nirgends vermisst. Kitty sucht jetzt eine liebe Familie, die sie nie mehr im Stich lässt. Im neuen Zuhause möchte sie als Einzelprinzessin verwöhnt werden. Nach der Eingewöhnung hätte Kitty gern wieder Freigang. Ihre neue Wohnumgebung sollte entsprechend verkehrsarm sein. Tierheimkonto: Tierschutz der Tat e.V.

About Kitty

What life with Kitty looks like

Kitty is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Detmold in Detmold.

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 Kitty, answered.

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