Lotti

Mixed Breed · Female

Lotti was found some time ago by dog walkers in a village. She looked very neglected, was thin, and seemed to be heavily pregnant. Her owner didn't care about her; only two girls from the village looked after her. Despite her situation, Lotti was very cuddly and sought contact with people. We had a spot free, so she came to us: dirty and "snotty," with a strange hanging belly, quite unlike what is usual for heavily pregnant cats. But she was also very hungry for food and affection. An immediate visit to the vet then revealed the real problem: Lotti was not pregnant at all, but had severely swollen nipples due to a completely disrupted hormone balance. Without treatment, this would soon have led to sepsis, and you can imagine how things would have gone from there. Well, Lotti received suitable medication, and her cat flu was treated as well. The swelling soon subsided, she gained weight, and she now has a beautiful, well-kept white coat. She is cuddly, affectionate, and very playful. She has no problems with other cats, having already had plenty of experience with them in her life so far. We have her cat flu under control for now, and she has not needed treatment for several weeks. However, she will probably remain susceptible to it for the rest of her life. In cases like this, it is important to strengthen the body's immune system: adequate, good nutrition and a safe, stable environment play a major role. We are now looking for a new home for Lotti with people who will give her the love she deserves, accept her health handicap, and can ensure any necessary veterinary care when needed. Since fresh air is certainly good for Lotti, and she greatly enjoys the access to the balcony that is now possible, the new home should have a secured balcony. Lotti has no problems with other cats, but these should have adequate and up-to-date vaccination protection against cat flu. She should also get along well with children of school age.

Lotti wurde vor einiger Zeit von Spaziergängern in einem Dorf entdeckt. Sie machte einen sehr verwahrlosten Eindruck, war mager und schien hochträchtig zu sein. Ihrem Besitzer war sie egal, nur zwei Mädchen aus dem Dorf kümmerten sich um sie. Trotz ihrer Situtation war Lotti sehr verschmust und suchte den Kontakt zu Menschen. Wir hatten ein Plätzchen frei, so kam sie zu uns: verschmutzt und „verrotzt“ und mit einem seltsamen hängenden Bauch, ganz anders als sonst bei hochträchtigen Katzen. Aber auch sehr hungrig nach Futter und Streicheleinheiten. Ein sofortiger Tierarztbesuch deckte dann das Drama auf: Lotti war nicht hochträchtig, sondern hatte auf Grund eines vollkommen durcheinander geratenen Hormonspiegels stark geschwollene Zitzen. Ohne Behandlung hätte dies sehr bald zu einer Sepsis geführt, den weiteren Verlauf kann man sich denken. Nun ja, Lotti bekam geeignete Medikamente, auch der Schnupfen wurde behandelt. Die Schwellungen gingen bald zurück, sie nahm zu und hat inzwischen ein wunderschönes, gepflegtes weißes Fell. Sie ist verschmust und anhänglich und auch sehr verspielt. Mit Artgenossen hat sie kein Problem, da hatte sie ja schon genug Erfahrung in ihrem bisherigen Leben. Lottis Katzenschnupfen haben wir aktuell im Griff, behandelt wird sie seit einigen Wochen nicht mehr. Aber sie bleibt vermutlich Zeit ihres Lebens anfällig. Wichtig ist in solchen Fällen, das körpereigene Immunsystem zu stärken: ausreichende, gute Ernährung und ein sicheres und stabiles Umfeld spielen da eine große Rolle. Wir suchen nun für Lotti ein neues Zuhause bei Menschen, die ihr die verdiente Liebe geben, ihr gesundheitliches Handikap akzeptieren und bei Bedarf auch die notwendige tierärztliche Versorgung sicherstellen können. Da frische Luft Lotti sicher gut tut und sie den mittlerweile möglichen Zugang zum Balkon sehr genießt, sollte im neuen Zuhause auch ein abgesicherter Balkon vorhanden sein. Mit Artgenossen hat Lotti kein Problem, diese sollten aber einen ausreichenden und stets aktuellen Impfschutz gegen Katzenschnupfen haben. Auch mit Kindern ab Schulalter sollte sie gut zurechtkommen.

About Lotti

What life with Lotti looks like

Lotti is a small adult mixed breed cat waiting at generator in Germany.

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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Lotti, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Lotti?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. generator handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Lotti on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Lotti if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — generator 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Lotti 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 Lotti 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 generator early rather than rehoming privately; they know Lotti 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.
