Majka

Scottish Fold · Female

I’m Majka—a cautious, initially mistrustful, yet loving velvet paw. Here’s the story: I was found—and as you can see in the photo, I’m rather shy. New situations and changes make me feel a bit uncertain at first. That’s why I need people who’ll give me the time I need to settle in and gradually gain confidence. Once I feel safe, I thoroughly enjoy being close to my humans. I especially love getting brushed and am thrilled by any kind of affectionate attention. I’m happiest when I’m eating together with others. Unfortunately, I’m also a so-called “breed-specific breed”—a result of selective breeding—and that’s why I’m already receiving pain medication. It’s therefore crucial that my future humans educate themselves thoroughly beforehand and commit to supporting me long-term. Of course, my caregivers are more than happy to provide detailed advice on this topic. I’d like to find a loving, calm home as an only princess—preferably without young children. My people should have plenty of time for me and understand that I’ll be rather reserved at first. If you approach me with patience, you’ll win a loyal and cuddly companion. If you’d like to offer a loving home to a sensitive cat with special needs, I’d be delighted to meet you. With a little patience, I’ll show you just how much love is inside me.

Ich bin Majka eine vorsichtige, anfangs misstrauische, aber liebe Samtpfote. Das bin ich: Ich wurde gefunden – und wie man auf dem Foto auch sieht, bin ich eher von der scheuen Sorte. Neue Situationen und Veränderungen machen mich zunächst etwas unsicher. Deshalb brauche ich Menschen, die mir die Zeit geben zum Ankommen und mutig werden. Wenn ich mich sicher fühle, genieße ich die Nähe zu meinen Menschen sehr. Besonders gern lasse ich mich bürsten und freue mich über jede liebevolle Aufmerksamkeit. Am liebsten fresse ich in Gesellschaft. Außerdem bin ich leider eine sogenannte Qualzucht und bekomme deshalb bereits Schmerzmittel. Es ist deshalb wichtig, dass sich meine zukünftigen Menschen vorab gut darüber informieren und mich auch wirklich langfristig unterstützen. Meine Tierpfleger:innen beraten dazu natürlich auch ausführlich. Ich wünsche mir ein liebevolles, ruhiges Zuhause als Einzelprinzessin ohne Kleinkinder. Meine Menschen sollten viel Zeit für mich haben und Verständnis dafür mitbringen, dass ich anfangs eher zurückhaltend bin. Wer mir mit Geduld begegnet, gewinnt eine treue und verschmuste Begleiterin. Wenn du einer sensiblen Katze mit besonderem Unterstützungsbedarf ein liebevolles Zuhause schenken möchtest, freue ich mich darauf, dich kennenzulernen. Mit etwas Geduld werde ich dir zeigen, wie viel Liebe in mir steckt.

About Majka

What life with Majka looks like

Majka is a adult scottish fold cat waiting at Tierheim Berlin Falkenberg in Berlin.

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. 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 Majka, answered.

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