Adopt Nova

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

🟢 Sucht ein Zuhause Nova – eine zweite Chance fürs Glück 🐾 Unsere kleine Zuckermaus Nova begegnete uns erstmals im Herbst 2025 bei einer Kastrationsaktion. Damals wurde sie kastriert und anschließend wieder an ihre Futterstelle zurückgebracht – ein ganz normaler Ablauf. Doch im Frühjahr 2026 passierte etwas, das nur selten geschieht: Nova ging uns erneut in die Falle. Für uns war das ein Zeichen. Ein Zeichen dafür, dass Nova vielleicht doch mehr will als ein Leben draußen. Dass sie zu uns gehört – und die Chance auf ein sicheres, liebevolles Für-immer-Zuhause bekommen soll. 💛 Nova ist etwa 3–5 Jahre alt und bringt ihre eigene kleine Geschichte mit. Eine ältere Verletzung wird derzeit noch behandelt, und auch seelisch trägt sie ihre Erfahrungen mit sich. Sie ist sehr ängstlich, zurückhaltend und vor allem nachts aktiv – eine leise Beobachterin, die ihre Zeit braucht. Nova weiß genau, was sie möchte – und auch, wann sie keine Lust auf Nähe hat. Deshalb suchen wir für sie ein ruhiges Zuhause mit verständnisvollen Menschen, die ihr mit Geduld begegnen und ihr die Zeit geben, Vertrauen zu fassen. Wer Nova diese Chance schenkt, wird irgendwann mit einem ganz besonderen Band belohnt. 🐱 Vielleicht bist genau du der Mensch, auf den Nova gewartet hat?

About Nova

What life with Nova looks like

Nova is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Katzenhilfe Laupheim in Laupheim.

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 Nova, answered.

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