Lisa

European Shorthair · Unknown · Senior · 12 years

Gender: Female, Spayed. At our facility since: June 23, 2026. Characteristics: Suitable as farm cats; not to be kept alone. Temperament: Shy, fearful, reserved. Lisa has truly had bad luck in life. Several years ago, she came to us already as a very fearful and timid cat. Yet, she was incredibly fortunate to find a home with a understanding lady who didn't expect much from Lisa and simply let her be a cat. There, Lisa lived outdoors a lot with her companion Stromer, but she was free to come in and out as she pleased. She trusted that lady, otherwise she avoided people altogether. Unfortunately, Lisa's owner passed away, and the now 12-year-old cat ended up back at the animal shelter. Full of fear, she still isn't particularly cooperative with us. Can we help Lisa find great happiness once more and a home where she can spend the rest of her life? We'd be so happy for this lovely little lady, who is not suited for life in a shelter. We're looking for a calm, relaxed home with no demands placed on Lisa. She'd love to live together with her friend Stromer or as a companion to an older cat already living there. Free-range access to nature would be very important here. A senior-friendly spot on a farm could also be ideal for Lisa.

Geschlecht: Katze, Kastriert Bei uns seit: 23.6.2026 Merkmale: Als Hofkatzen geeignet, keine Einzelhaltung, Charakter: Schüchtern, ängstlich, zurückhaltend Lisa hat wirklich Pech im Leben. Vor einigen Jahren kam sie bereits als sehr ängstliche und scheue Katze zu uns, doch sie hatte das große Glück ein Zuhause bei einer verständnisvollen Dame zu finden, die nicht viel von Lisa erwartet hat und sie einfach Katze hat sein lassen. Dort lebte Lisa mit ihrem Freund Stromer viel draussen, durfte aber rein und raus wie sie wollte. Der Dame vertraute sie, ansonsten ging sie Menschen aus dem Weg. Leider verstarb Lisas Besitzerin und die mittlerweile 12 jährige Katzendame landete erneut im Tierheim. Voller Angst zeigt sie sich bei uns noch nicht besonders kooperativ. Gelingt es uns für Lisa noch einmal das große Glück zu finden und ein Zuhause zu finden in dem sie diesmal das restliche Leben verbringen darf? Wir würden uns so für die hübsche Maus freuen, die nicht geeignet ist für ein Tierheimleben. Gesucht wird also ein ruhiges, entspanntes Zuhause ohne Anforderung an Lisa. Gerne mit Freund Stromer zusammen oder als Gesellschafterin für eine bereits vorhandene ältere Katze. Freilauf in die Natur wäre hierbei sehr wichtig. Auch ein Seniorenplätzchen auf einem Hof wäre für Lisa denkbar.

About Lisa

What life with Lisa looks like

Lisa is a large senior european shorthair cat waiting at Tierschutz Eutin und Umgebung e.V. in Eutin.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇩🇪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 Lisa, answered.

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