Leni

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

The female cat Leni was discovered locked in a cellar in Thessaloniki and caught. Originally, she was only meant to be neutered and then released again, but fortunately, there were people interested in adopting her. Leni was therefore able to wait in a foster home. Unfortunately, the adoption did not ultimately go through, and Leni is still waiting for a home. Leni is friendly, climbs, plays and loves to eat! She is a bit shy around strangers at first. However, if given the necessary time, she quickly gets used to people. Leni gets along very well with other cats and should therefore move in with an existing first cat. Otherwise, she happily brings along a second Sampfote. Leni will be placed exclusively in indoor housing. Windows and, if applicable, balconies must be cat-proofed in her new home. Leni moves into her new home neutered, microchipped and vaccinated. Possible at cost price of 180 euros (including transport box). Look-Tierschutzverein Deutschland e.V. ©

Die Kätzin Leni wurde eingesperrt in einem Keller in Thessaloniki entdeckt und eingefangen. Ursprünglich sollte sie nur kastriert und anschließend wieder ausgesetzt werden, doch zu ihrem Glück gab es Interessenten für sie. So durfte Leni in einer Pflegestelle warten. Leider kam es schlussendlich nicht zur Adoption und Leni wartet weiterhin auf ein Zuhause. Leni ist freundlich, klettert, spielt und frisst für ihr Leben gerne! Fremden gegenüber ist sie anfangs etwas schüchtern. Lässt man ihr aber die nötige Zeit gewöhnt sie sich schnell an den Menschen. Mit ihren Artgenossen verträgt sich Leni sehr gut und sollte daher zu einer vorhandenen Erstkatze ziehen. Andernfalls bringt sie gern eine zweite Sampfote mit. Leni wird ausschließlich in eine Wohnungshaltung abgegeben. Fenster und ggf. Balkon müssen in ihrem neuen Zuhause katzensicher vernetzt sein. Leni zieht kastriert, gechipt und geimpft in ihr neues Zuhause. möglich zum Selbstkostenpreis 180 Euro (inklusive Transportbox) Look-Tierschutzverein Deutschland e.V. ©

About Leni

What life with Leni looks like

Leni is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at Look-Tierschutzverein Deutschland e.V. in Hamburg.

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 Leni, answered.

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