How do I contact the shelter about Malena?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Katzenschutzfreunde Rhein-Ahr-Eifel e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Malena on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Malena if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Katzenschutzfreunde Rhein-Ahr-Eifel 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 Malena 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 Malena 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 Katzenschutzfreunde Rhein-Ahr-Eifel e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Malena 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.

Malena

Bengal · Female · Kitten · 2 months

Malena * ca. 24.7.2026 Malena is a former adorable foundling kitten, discovered in a car dealership's workshop weighing just 200 grams. We lovingly bottle-fed her. Curious, agile, and utterly affectionate, the little sweetheart loves to climb, frolic, and play, always in the thick of things. At the same time, Malena is very people-oriented, as all bottle-fed kittens tend to be. We're looking for a nice family with older children, or a married couple, who can adopt Malena together with her sister Thea. We refuse single adoptions. For the two kittens, we're looking for a spacious home with plenty of room and a great climbing scratching post. Since they're very active and playful, their new owners should enjoy giving two young cats a varied and loving home. When they leave, Malena and Thea will be dewormed, vaccinated, and chipped multiple times. Foster home: G.K. Bonn

Malena * ca. 24.7.2026 Malena ist ein ehemaliges bezauberndes Fundkätzchen, sie wurde mit nur 200 Gramm in einem Autohaus in der Werkstatt entdeckt und wir haben sie liebevoll mit der Flasche aufgezogen. Neugierig, agil und total verschmust ist die kleine süße Maus. Sie klettert, tobt und spielt für ihr Leben gern und dabei immer mittendrin im Geschehen. Gleichzeitig ist Malena sehr menschenbezogen, wie halt alle Flaschenbabys so sind. Wir wünschen uns eine nette Familie mit größeren Kinder, oder auch gerne ein Ehepaar, die Malena gemeinsam mit ihrer Schwester Thea adoptieren. Alleinvermittlung lehnen wir ab. Für die beiden Kätzchen wünschen wir uns ein großzügiges Zuhause mit viel Platz, einem tollen Kletterkratzbaum. Da sie sehr aktiv und verspielt sind, sollten ihre neuen Menschen Freude daran haben, zwei jungen Katzen ein abwechslungsreiches und liebevolles Zuhause zu schenken. Bei ihrem Auszug sind Malena und Thea mehrfach entwurmt, geimpft und gechipt. Pflegestelle: G.K. Bonn

About Malena

What life with Malena looks like

Malena is a large puppy/kitten bengal cat waiting at Katzenschutzfreunde Rhein-Ahr-Eifel e.V. in Schalkenbach.

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.
