Lily

Female · Adult · 6 years

I am the sweet Lily! I recently had to be given up at a shelter and now I wish for a loving home where I can finally arrive. Since my arrival, I have been very anxious and a bit overwhelmed with my new situation - I often retreat into one of my cat dens and prefer to be alone. While I tolerate the other cats in the cat house, I really don't want to interact with them and would rather become a single princess. That's why I hope to find a home as soon as possible where I can have my peace and really arrive - because according to my original owner, I am supposed to be a quite nice and accessible cat. This is what I show the caregivers when I'm not too stressed. One thing I must confess to you, unfortunately, I am overweight, but my caregivers are currently working on that. It would also be important for my forever home to pay attention to this! If I can enjoy outdoor time in a quiet location in my new home, it will definitely help me. I probably get along well with older children as long as they respect my boundaries. If you want to meet me, then please contact my caregivers and make an appointment! Until then, I'm waiting for you. Yours, Lily

Hallöchen, ich bin die süße Lily! Vor Kurzem musste ich im Tierheim gegeben werden und wünsche mir nun ein liebevolles Zuhause, in dem ich endlich ankommen darf. Ich bin seit meiner Ankunft sehr ängstlich und ein bisschen überfordert mit meiner neuen Situation - ich ziehe mich oft in eine meiner Katzenhöhlen zurück und bin am liebsten für mich. Die anderen Katzen im Katzenhaus dulde ich zwar, wirklich etwas mit ihnen zu tun haben möchte ich allerdings nicht und möchte eher Einzelprinzessin werden. Deshalb hoffe ich sehr, dass ich möglichst schnell ein Zuhause finde, in dem ich meine Ruhe habe und so richtig ankommen darf - denn eigentlich soll ich laut meiner ursprünglichen Besitzerin eine recht nette und zugängliche Katze sein. Dies zeige ich den Pflegern auch, wenn ich nicht allzu gestresst bin. Eines muss ich euch noch gestehen, ich bin leider etwas übergewichtig, daran arbeiten meine Pfleger momentan. Da sollte in meinem für immer Zuhause auch gut drauf geachtet werden! Wenn ich in meinem neuen Zuhause Freigang in ruhiger Lage genießen darf, hilft mir das bestimmt auch. Mit älteren Kindern komme ich wahrscheinlich gut klar, solange sie meine Grenzen respektieren. Wenn ihr mich kennenlernen möchtet, dann meldet euch unbedingt bei meinen Pflegern und macht einen Termin aus! Bis dahin warte ich auf euch. Eure Lily

About Lily

What life with Lily looks like

Lily is a adult cat waiting at Tierheim u. Tierschutzverein Kreis Ahrweiler e.V. / Tierheim Remagen. in Remagen.

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 Lily, answered.

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