Adopt Lucy

Mixed Breed Cat · Female

I am a 6-year-old, neutered female cat. For many years, I lived with my beloved humans, who loved me deeply. I was their faithful companion and, above all, a real snuggle cat. The most beautiful moments for me were the cozy hours on the sofa, when I could snuggle up close to my trusted people. My life was long filled with security and happiness—until my owners' living situation changed. About a year ago, a baby was born, who unfortunately suffers from cat hair allergy. My people searched for a solution for a long time, as no one wanted to say goodbye to me. But sometimes life demands decisions that make the heart heavy. So, I finally ended up in the cat shelter of Tierheim Hallein, to have the chance for a new beginning and a loving home. As I spent my entire life as an indoor cat, I wish for a secure home in the future that is suitable for apartment living. What must not be missing is a secure balcony. I love to sniff the fresh air, enjoy the sunbeams, and attentively observe what's happening outside. Until now, I was the unchallenged princess of my realm and had to share my favorite humans with no other cat. Whether I can perhaps get along with another feline friend or even become friends, the shelter staff will find out soon.

Die Ich bin eine 6-jährige, kastrierte Katzendame. Viele Jahre durfte ich bei meinen Herzensmenschen leben, die mich innig geliebt haben. Ich war ihre treue Gefährtin und vor allem eine echte Schmusekatze. Am schönsten waren für mich die gemütlichen Stunden auf dem Sofa, wenn ich mich eng an den wohligen Bauch meines Dosenöffners kuscheln konnte. Mein Leben war lange Zeit voller Geborgenheit und Glück – bis sich die Lebenssituation meiner Zweibeiner veränderte. Vor etwa einem Jahr kam ein Baby zur Welt, das leider an einer Katzenhaarallergie leidet. Meine Menschen haben lange nach einer Lösung gesucht, denn niemand wollte sich von mir verabschieden. Doch manchmal verlangt das Leben Entscheidungen, die einem das Herz schwer machen. So kam ich schließlich ins Katzenhaus des Tierheims Hallein, damit ich die Chance auf einen Neuanfang und ein liebevolles Heim bekomme. Da ich mein ganzes Leben als Wohnungskatze verbracht habe, wünsche ich mir auch künftig ein sicheres Zuhause in reiner Wohnungshaltung. Was dabei auf keinen Fall fehlen darf, ist ein gesicherter Balkon. Ich liebe es, die frische Luft zu schnuppern, Sonnenstrahlen zu genießen und das Geschehen draußen aufmerksam zu beobachten. Bisher war ich die unangefochtene Prinzessin meines Reiches und musste meine Lieblingsmenschen mit keiner anderen Katze teilen. Ob ich mich vielleicht doch mit einer anderen Samtpfote arrangieren oder sogar anfreunden könnte, wird mein Personal hier im Katzenhaus noch genauer herausfinden.

About Lucy

What life with Lucy looks like

Lucy is a adult mixed breed cat cat waiting at Tierheim Hallein in Hallein.

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 Austria

Austrian shelters follow the federal Tierschutzgesetz framework: adopters sign a Schutzvertrag (protection contract) committing to the animal's welfare. Spay/neuter, microchip, and vaccinations are included; fees typically range €150–€350.

Frequently asked

Adopting Lucy, answered.

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