Adopt Lina und Nala

European Shorthair · Female · Young · 1 year

And Nala were found without their mother in a shed. After a few days, when no one came forward, they came to us. For the siblings, who clearly hadn't had any human contact yet, we are urgently seeking patient and loving people. Lina und Nala will barely show themselves in their new home for the first few days and will use every hiding spot. In a quiet household with people who have a great capacity for empathy, the two could more easily gain trust.

und Nala wurden ohne Mama in einem Schuppen entdeckt. Nach ein paar Tagen, nachdem niemand aufgetaucht war, kamen sie zu uns. Für die Geschwister, die eindeutig noch keinen Menschenkontakt hatten, suchen wir dringend geduldige und liebevolle Menschen. Lina und Nala werden sich die ersten Tage im neuen Zuhause kaum zeigen und jedes Versteck nutzen. In einem ruhigen Haushalt mit Menschen, die über ein großes Einfühlungsvermögen verfügen, könnten die beiden leichter Vertrauen fassen.

About Lina und Nala

What life with Lina und Nala looks like

Lina und Nala is a large young adult european shorthair cat waiting at Katzenschutz Göppingen-Donzdorf in Donzdorf.

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 Lina und Nala, answered.

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