Maisie

Male · Kitten · 5 months

Maisie is a Scottish Fold mix. She has been with us since August 2nd, 2026. Maisie is initially cautious but then very affectionate, cuddly, and trusting. Maisie is a Scottish Fold. Her folded ears make her look very cute, but they also bring certain health risks, which is why this breed is rightly considered a "Qualzucht". Maisie's fate is particularly sad. She was abandoned at just 5 months old with a tomcat in a small van, crammed together next to a trash can. At temperatures around 25 degrees. Both animals were extremely dehydrated and in no good condition. The tomcat also had severe deformities that caused him to have such bad breathing problems that he unfortunately didn't make it. Fortunately, Maisie is not so badly deformed and she gets good air. She has recovered from the ordeal and is fit and lively. The little tiger cat is very affectionate and attached. Initially, however, she is a bit reserved and shy and needs some time to trust. She is looking for a quiet household where she can be a pure house cat. Of course, not alone. Maisie needs a second kitten, preferably at a similar age. This should either already be at home or we could look in the animal shelter if a suitable second kitten is there for her. Small children should not be in the house, as they stress Maisie very much. She is used to dogs. But she also finds them a bit scary. For Maisie, people who have dealt with the Scottish Fold breed and know the health risks would be important.

Rasse: Scottish-Fold Mix Bei uns seit: 2.8.2026 Merkmale: Keine Einzelhaltung, reine Wohnungshaltung/Haushaltung. Charakter: Anfangs vorsichtig, dann sehr anhänglich, verschmust, zutraulich Maisie ist eine Scottish Fold. Mit ihren Knickohren sieht sie zwar sehr niedlich aus. Diese bringen aber auch gewisse gesundheitliche Risiken mit sich, weswegen diese Rasse nicht zu unrecht zu den Qualzuchten gehört. Maisies Schicksal ist besonders schlimm. Sie wurde mit gerade einmal 5 Monaten zusammen mit einem Kater an einer Mülltonne in einem kleinen Transporter zusammengepfercht ausgesetzt. Bei Temperaturen um die 25 Grad. Beide Tiere waren extrem dehydriert und in keinem guten Zustand. Der Kater hat zudem durch massive Deformierungen so schlimme Luftprobleme gehabt, dass er es leider nicht geschafft hat. Zum Glück ist Maisies nicht so schlimm deformiert und sie bekommt gut Luft. Sie hat sich mittlerweile von den Strapazen erholt und ist fit und munter. Die kleine Tigerkatze ist sehr zutraulich und anhänglich. Anfangs aber etwas zurückhaltend und schüchtern und braucht etwas Zeit zum vertrauen. Sie sucht einen ruhigen Haushalt wo sie reine Hauskatze sein kann. Natürlich nicht alleine. Maisie braucht ein zweites Kätzchen gerne im ähnlichen Alter. Dieses sollte entweder schon Zuhause vorhanden sein oder wir könnten im Tierheim gucken ob ein passendes Zweitkätzchen für sie dabei ist. Kleine Kinder sollten nicht im Haus sein, diese stressen Maisie sehr. An Hunde ist sie gewohnt. Findet sie aber auch noch etwas gruselig. Für Maisies wären Menschen wichtig, die sich mit der Rasse Scottish Fold auseinander gesetzt haben und die gesundheitlichen Risiken kennen.

About Maisie

What life with Maisie looks like

Maisie is a small puppy/kitten cat waiting at Tierschutz Eutin und Umgebung e.V. in Eutin.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇩🇪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 Maisie, answered.

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