Leyla

Maine Coon · Female · Kitten · 4 months

Leyla is a very anxious cat who was found abandoned on our shelter's parking lot with her kitten. Her history is unknown. She has had an ear surgery, which can be discussed with our vet. She gets along with other cats. We are looking for sensitive people who can let her settle in at her own pace. Additional photos: Posted on: 2026-09-24 08:16 Last modified: 2026-09-24 08:17

Details Tiername Leyla Rasse Maine Coone Mix Geschlecht weiblich kastriert Geburtsdatum 2023 Herkunft Fundtier Fundort Tierheim Parkplatz ID Fundtierverwaltung F544/26 Beschreibung Leyla ist eine sehr ängstliche Katze, die zusammen mit ihrem Kitten auf unserem Tierheim Parkplatz ausgesetzt wurde. Ihre Vorgeschichte ist uns also unbekannt. Aufgetaut ist sie leider bisher nicht wirklich. Sie hat eine Operation am Ohr hinter sich, hierfür kann gerne mit unserer Tierärztin gesprochen werden. Mit anderen Katzen hat sie an sich keine Probleme. Wir wünschen uns einfühlsame Menschen für sie, die sie in aller Ruhe in ihrem Tempo ankommen lassen.

About Leyla

What life with Leyla looks like

Leyla is a puppy/kitten maine coon cat waiting at Tierschutz Hildesheim und Umgebung e.V. in Hildesheim.

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 Leyla, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Leyla?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutz Hildesheim und Umgebung e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Leyla on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Leyla if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutz Hildesheim und Umgebung 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Leyla 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 Leyla 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 Hildesheim und Umgebung e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Leyla 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.
