Luisa Vermittlungshilfe

European Shorthair · Female · Adult · 5 years

Chronically ill cat seeks foster or permanent home We are looking for a home for Luisa in Germany. Who will fall in love with her and her story? Luisa and the Granuloma... Luisa is an adult cat of about 5 years old who has spent her whole life on the beach of Castellammare del Golfo in Sicily. Despite her condition, no one thought of taking her off the street or taking her to the vet. One day a tourist came and couldn't help but see her suffering. She searched for help for days until she finally had to leave! It wasn't until a week later that she managed to contact me! The same day the girls and I searched for her and found her. She was in labor and one of her stillborn kittens lay next to her! We brought her home quickly, but after several hours she still hadn't given birth, so we rushed to the clinic where an emergency cesarean was performed. One of her kittens had a birth canal defect, only four survived. Many months have passed, her children were adopted, and she is still here waiting for a miracle that never comes. She is one of the most beloved cats I have ever taken in, polite and reserved. The granuloma is an unidentified allergy; we need to get rid of it. She is currently on hypoallergenic food; hopefully she can soon switch to normal food, which offers much more variety. We use bentonite sand as cat litter, not natural sand, and no dusty silicate crystals. Luisa is spayed and tested negative for FIV and FeLV. She is compatible with other cats after acclimation. Nevertheless, a quiet and stress-free home would be wonderful for her. She is currently on Sicily, but leaving is not a problem. We organize all the necessary vaccinations as well as transportation to Germany. Luisa is currently still with the animal rights activist Arianna, who rescued her. For serious

Chronisch kranke Katze sucht Pflegestelle oder Endplatz Wir suchen ein Zuhause für Luisa in Deutschland. Wer verliebt sich in sie und ihre Geschichte? Luisa und das Granulom … Luisa ist eine erwachsene Katze von ca. 5 Jahren, die ihr ganzes Leben am Strand von Castellammare del Golfo auf Sizilien verbracht hat. Trotz ihres Zustands dachte niemand daran, sie von der Straße zu holen oder zum Tierarzt zu bringen. Eines Tages kam eine Touristin und konnte nicht anders, als ihr Leid zu sehen. Sie suchte tagelang nach Hilfe, bis sie schließlich abreisen musste! Erst nach einer Woche gelang es ihr, mich zu kontaktieren! Am selben Tag suchten die Mädchen und ich nach ihr und fanden sie. Sie war in den Wehen und eines ihrer leblosen Jungen lag neben ihr! Wir brachten sie schnell nach Hause, aber nach mehreren Stunden hatte sie immer noch nicht geboren, also fuhren wir eilig in die Klinik, wo ein Notkaiserschnitt durchgeführt wurde. Eines ihrer Kätzchen hatte einen Geburtskanalfehler, nur vier überlebten. Viele Monate sind vergangen, ihre Kinder wurden adoptiert, und sie ist immer noch hier und wartet auf ein Wunder, das nie kommt. Sie ist eine der liebsten Katzen, die ich je aufgenommen habe, höflich und zurückhaltend. Das Granulom ist eine nicht identifizierte Allergie ; wir müssen sie beseitigen. Sie bekommt derzeit hypoallergenes Futter; hoffentlich kann sie bald auf normales Futter umsteigen, das viel mehr Abwechslung bietet. Als Katzenstreu verwenden wir Bentonitsand, keinen Natursand, und keine staubigen Silikatkristalle. Luisa ist kastriert und negativ auf FIV und FeLV getestet. Sie ist nach Eingewöhnung mit anderen Katzen verträglich. Dennoch wäre ein ruhiges und stressfreies Zuhause für sie wunderbar. Sie befindet sich aktuell auf Sizilien, aber Ausreisen ist kein Problem. Wir organisieren alle benötigten Schutzimpfungen sowie den Transport nach Deutschland. Luisa befindet sich aktuell noch bei der Tierschützerin Arianna, die sie gerettet hat. Bei ernsthaftem

Frequently asked

Adopting Luisa Vermittlungshilfe, answered.

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