Maleficent

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

Maleficent is approximately two years old and a very special tortoiseshell cat. She has lovingly raised her kittens in a foster home. The little ones have now moved out - now it's Maleficent's turn and she is waiting in the cat house for her own home. Unfortunately, Maleficent is one of the shy cats and prefers to retreat at first when visitors arrive. This makes her easily overlooked. Despite this, she is a real eye-catcher with her charming beige spot on her face. People are being sought for Maleficent who can give her time, peace and patience. She doesn't have to gain trust overnight, but should be allowed to arrive at her own pace. Those who give her this time will have the chance to get to know a very special cat. Maleficent seems to get along well with other cats. A home with later outdoor access is being sought for her. Just write to us. As soon as we receive your message, we will contact you as soon as possible. Please understand that we can't always respond immediately. Please give us one to two days for a response.

Maleficent ist etwa zwei Jahre alt und eine ganz besondere Schildpatt-Katze. Auf einer Pflegestelle hat sie liebevoll ihre Babys großgezogen. Die Kleinen sind inzwischen ausgezogen – nun ist Maleficent selbst an der Reihe und wartet im Katzenhaus auf ihr eigenes Zuhause. Leider gehört Maleficent zu den schüchternen Katzen und zieht sich bei Besuch zunächst lieber zurück. Dadurch wird sie leicht übersehen. Dabei ist sie mit ihrem charmanten beigen Fleck auf der Schnute ein ganz besonderer Hingucker. Für Maleficent werden Menschen gesucht, die ihr Zeit, Ruhe und Geduld schenken. Sie muss nicht von heute auf morgen Vertrauen fassen, sondern sollte in ihrem eigenen Tempo ankommen dürfen. Wer ihr diese Zeit gibt, bekommt die Chance, eine ganz besondere Katze kennenzulernen. Mit anderen Katzen scheint Maleficent gut zurechtzukommen. Für sie wird ein Zuhause mit späterem Freigang gesucht.

About Maleficent

What life with Maleficent looks like

Maleficent is a large young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutz Euskirchen e.V. in Germany.

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 Maleficent, answered.

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