How do I contact the shelter about Mariella?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Wally-Bangert-Tierheim Lohr am Main handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Mariella on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Mariella if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Wally-Bangert-Tierheim Lohr am Main 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 Mariella 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 Mariella 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 Wally-Bangert-Tierheim Lohr am Main early rather than rehoming privately; they know Mariella and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.

Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?

Mariella

Female · Kitten · 4 months

Mariella - a beautiful long-haired beauty is looking for patient people. Mariella is a beautiful black velvet cat, born around May 15, 2026. The little long-haired mix arrived at our shelter as a found animal and is now waiting to find people who will approach her with a lot of calm and patience. Still cautious - but with a lot of time. Mariella is currently very shy and reserved. She simply needs some time to get used to people and her new surroundings. That's why we wish for her people who have no high expectations and give her the time to build trust at her own pace. For Mariella, a quiet household without small children would be ideal, so she can arrive in a relaxed environment and develop step by step. Together into cat life. Mariella should not grow up alone. We therefore mediate her exclusively in pairs - either together with another suitable kitten or to an existing cat of her age. A cat companion can be an important support for a shy young cat. Together you can play, romp, cuddle and explore the new world. Later out into the big world. Mariella is intended as an outdoor cat. After a corresponding acclimatization period, she may later explore her surroundings and experience her little adventures. Currently, Mariella is not spayed due to her young age.

&; Mariella – kleine Langhaar-Schönheit sucht geduldige Menschen &;&; Mariella ist eine wunderschöne schwarze Samtpfote, geboren etwa am 15.05.2026. Die kleine Langhaar-Mix-Dame kam als Fundtier zu uns ins Tierheim und wartet nun darauf, Menschen zu finden, die ihr mit ganz viel Ruhe und Geduld begegnen. &; Noch vorsichtig – aber mit viel Zeit Mariella ist momentan noch sehr scheu und zurückhaltend . Sie braucht einfach noch etwas Zeit, um sich an Menschen und ihre neue Umgebung zu gewöhnen. Deshalb wünschen wir uns für sie Menschen, die keine schnellen Erwartungen haben und ihr die Zeit geben, Vertrauen in ihrem eigenen Tempo aufzubauen . Für Mariella wäre ein ruhiger Haushalt ohne kleine Kinder ideal, damit sie in einer entspannten Umgebung ankommen und sich Schritt für Schritt entwickeln kann. &; Gemeinsam ins Katzenleben Mariella soll nicht alleine aufwachsen . Wir vermitteln sie deshalb ausschließlich zu zweit – entweder gemeinsam mit einem anderen passenden Kitten oder zu einer bereits vorhandenen Katze in ihrem Alter . Ein Katzenkumpel kann gerade für eine schüchterne junge Katze eine wichtige Unterstützung sein. Gemeinsam kann man spielen, toben, kuscheln und die neue Welt erkunden. &;&; &; Später hinaus in die große Welt Mariella ist als Freigängerin vorgesehen. Nach einer entsprechenden Eingewöhnungszeit darf sie später ihre Umgebung erkunden und ihre kleinen Abenteuer erleben. Aktuell ist Mariella aufgrund ihres jungen Alters noch nicht kastriert . &; Was ein Kitten braucht Auch schüchterne Katzenkinder möchten die Welt entdecken! Sie brauchen Sicherheit, Rückzugsmöglichkeiten, Beschäftigung, Geduld und liebevolle Menschen , die ihnen Zeit schenken. Mariella ist noch nicht kastriert , was aufgrund ihres jungen Alters noch nicht erfolgt ist. Zu einem glücklichen Katzenleben gehören später selbstverständlich auch die entsprechende tierärztliche Versorgung und die Kastration. &;&; Mariell

About Mariella

What life with Mariella looks like

Mariella is a large puppy/kitten cat waiting at Wally-Bangert-Tierheim Lohr am Main in Germany.

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.
