Lila

British Shorthair · Female · Young · 2 years

Lila sucht ihr Herzenszuhause! Unsere bezaubernde Lila (ca. 2–3 Jahre) wünscht sich endlich ein eigenes Zuhause, in dem sie ankommen und das Tierheim hinter sich lassen darf. Lila ist eine freundliche und sehr zutrauliche Katzendame. Sie begegnet Menschen offen und genießt ihre Aufmerksamkeit. Mit ihrem liebevollen Wesen erobert sie schnell die Herzen und freut sich auf Menschen, die ihr Geborgenheit und Zuwendung schenken. Wichtig: Lila wird nicht in Einzelhaltung vermittelt. Sie soll in ein Zuhause ziehen, in dem bereits eine etwa gleichaltrige Katze lebt oder mit einer passenden Samtpfote zusammen einziehen kann. Katzen sind sehr soziale Tiere und profitieren von einem passenden Artgenossen. Gemeinsam können sie spielen, miteinander kommunizieren, sich gegenseitig Sicherheit geben und ihren Alltag teilen – eine wichtige Grundlage für ein ausgeglichenes und glückliches Katzenleben. Wer möchte der lieben Lila die Chance auf einen Neuanfang geben und ihr ein liebevolles Zuhause mit einem passenden Katzenfreund oder einer passenden Katzenfreundin schenken?

About Lila

What life with Lila looks like

Lila is a young adult british shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Mönchengladbach in Mönchengladbach.

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 Lila, answered.

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