How do I contact the shelter about Luni + Samantha?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutz Austria handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Luni + Samantha on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Luni + Samantha if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutz Austria 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 Luni + Samantha 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 Luni + Samantha 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 Austria early rather than rehoming privately; they know Luni + Samantha 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.

Luni + Samantha

Domestic Shorthair · Female · Adult · 5 years

Name: Luni and Samantha Gender: both female, both neutered Tiernr.: 245294 and 259157 BIRTHDATE: April 2021 and January 2021 HOME WANTED: A home with secure outdoor access Samantha (black) shows herself as a curious and social cat. Although she is not yet being stroked at the moment, she actively seeks the proximity of her trusted people, sniffs cautiously at the hand, gets treats, and enjoys socializing. Luni (light) is much more cautious in handling with people and requires experienced owners. She clearly shows when something is too much for her or stress arises, which can manifest, for example, through marking, especially in new situations. Through patient trust-building work, she has become more open and enjoys play offers and treats; short touches are possible. The two cats have become close friends with us, play, eat, and cuddle together and should therefore be rehomed together. A quiet home with a large secure outdoor area or outdoor access in a quiet, traffic-free area is sought, with people who have experience with cats and patience.

Name: Luni und Samantha Geschlecht: beide weiblich, beide kastriert Tiernr.: 245294 bzw. 259157 Geburtsdatum: April 2021 bzw. Januar 2021 Zuhause gesucht: Zuhause mit gesichertem Freigang Samantha (schwarz) zeigt sich als neugierige und soziale Katze. Zwar lässt sie sich derzeit noch nicht streicheln, sucht aber aktiv die Nähe ihrer Bezugspersonen, schnuppert vorsichtig an der Hand, holt sich Leckerlis ab und „unterhält“ sich gerne. Luni (hell) ist im Umgang mit Menschen deutlich vorsichtiger und benötigt erfahrene Halter. Sie zeigt klar, wenn ihr etwas zu viel wird oder Stress entsteht, was sich unter anderem, besonders in neuen Situationen, durch Markieren äußern kann. Durch geduldige Vertrauensarbeit ist sie inzwischen offener geworden und freut sich über Spielangebote und Leckerlis; erste kurze Berührungen sind möglich. Die beiden Katzen sind bei uns enge Freundinnen geworden, spielen, fressen und kuscheln gemeinsam und sollen daher zusammen vermittelt werden. Gesucht wird ein ruhiges Zuhause mit großem gesichertem Freigang oder Freigang in einer ruhigen, verkehrsarmen Gegend, bei Menschen mit Katzenerfahrung und Geduld.

About Luni + Samantha

What life with Luni + Samantha looks like

Luni + Samantha is a medium-sized adult domestic shorthair cat waiting at Tierschutz Austria in Vienna.

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.

Note from the shelter: Bonded pair that must be adopted together, requires secured outdoor access

🇦🇹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.
