How do I contact the shelter about Malee?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Sonnenhof Eisenstadt (Sonnentiere) handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Malee on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Malee if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Sonnenhof Eisenstadt (Sonnentiere) 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 Malee 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 Malee 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 Sonnenhof Eisenstadt (Sonnentiere) early rather than rehoming privately; they know Malee 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.

Malee

European Shorthair · Unknown · Senior · 14 years

Malee is a shy and reserved tomcat. He will need some time to settle into his new home and build trust with his family. If given the necessary time and space, he will initially familiarize himself with his family from a safe distance. Once he has better gotten to know and been embraced by them, he will reveal his affectionate and loving nature. Malee suffers from chronic bronchitis and requires ongoing medication and regular veterinary check-ups. Since he is likely to have had contact with Feline Coronavirus (FCoV), he can only be placed in an apartment that is suitable for living. Malee gets along well with other cats and would like to continue having a (FCoV-positive) social partner by his side. The tomcat would be very happy to find a quiet new home with a loving family. Tierschutzhaus Sonnenhof Franz von Assisi-Strasse 1 | 7000 Eisenstadt | ZVR E-MAIL:. This cat is to be kept indoors only.

DE·Show original

Malee ist ein schüchterner und zurückhaltender Kater. Er wird einige Zeit benötigen, um in seinem neuen Zuhause „anzukommen“ und Vertrauen zu seiner Familie aufzubauen. Gewährt man ihm die nötige Zeit und Distanz, macht er sich mit seiner Familie zunächst aus sicherer Entfernung vertraut. Hat er diese besser kennengelernt und in sein Herz geschlossen, offenbart er seinen anschmiegsamen und liebevollen Charakter. Malee leidet an einer chronischen Bronchitis und benötigt dauerhaft Medikamente und regelmäßige tierärztliche Kontrollen. Da er bereits Kontakt mit dem Felinen Coronavirus (FCoV) gehabt haben dürfte, wird er nur in Wohnungshaltung vergeben. Malee zeigt sich mit anderen Katzen gut verträglich und möchte weiterhin einen (auf das Feline Coronavirus positiv getesteten) Sozialpartner an seiner Seite wissen. Der Kater würde sich über ein ruhiges, neues Zuhause bei einer liebevollen Familie sehr freuen.

About Malee

What life with Malee looks like

Malee is a senior european shorthair cat waiting at Sonnenhof Eisenstadt (Sonnentiere) in Austria.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇦🇹Adopting from Austria
