Lara

European Shorthair · Female · Young · 1 year

Lara arrived with Gismo as drop-off cats. Lara is open, cuddly, and playful. She prefers to lie in the sun and relax or observe birds. Lara also approaches new people with openness and enjoys every affection. With her brother Gismo, Lara gets along very well, so the two are looking for a home together. Lara would then become an outdoor cat again in the new home.

DE·Show original

Lara kam gemeinsam mit Gismo als Abgabekatzen zu uns. Lara ist offen, verschmust und verspielt. Am liebsten liegt sie in der Sonne und entspannt sich oder beobachtet Vögel. Lara geht auch auf neue Menschen offen zu und genießt jede Zuwendung. Mit ihrem Bruder Gismo verträgt Lara sich sehr gut, daher suchen die beiden zusammen ein Zuhause. Lara möchte dann im neuem Zuhause wieder Freigängerin werden.

About Lara

What life with Lara looks like

Lara is a young adult european shorthair cat waiting at BMT Tierheim Arche Noah Stuhr in Germany.

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 Lara, answered.

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