Marta

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 9 years

Marta is approximately 5 years old and an independent female cat who knows exactly what she wants. She is looking for a quiet home as a single cat where her boundaries are respected and she is given time to build trust. Marta is not a cuddly cat by nature. She decides for herself when she wants to allow closeness, and she needs people with a lot of patience and understanding of her personality. Anyone who gives her this time will receive a special cat with a very unique personality. For Marta, we wish for a relaxed home without other pets and without high expectations of a cuddly cat. What matters are calmness, patience, and people who accept her for who she is. Who will give this special female cat a chance at a new beginning?

DE·Show original

Marta ist ca. 5 Jahre alt und eine eher eigenwillige Katzendame, die genau weiß, was sie möchte. Sie sucht ein ruhiges Zuhause als Einzelkatze, in dem man ihre Grenzen respektiert und ihr die Zeit gibt, Vertrauen aufzubauen. Eine klassische Schmusekatze ist Marta nicht. Sie entscheidet selbst, wann sie Nähe zulassen möchte, und braucht Menschen mit viel Geduld und Verständnis für ihren Charakter. Wer ihr diese Zeit schenkt, bekommt eine besondere Katze mit ganz eigener Persönlichkeit. Für Marta wünschen wir uns ein entspanntes Zuhause ohne andere Tiere und ohne große Erwartungen an eine verschmuste Katze. Wichtig sind Ruhe, Geduld und Menschen, die sie so akzeptieren, wie sie ist. Wer gibt dieser besonderen Katzendame eine Chance auf einen Neuanfang?

About Marta

What life with Marta looks like

Marta is a large adult mixed breed cat waiting at Katzenhilfe Stuttgart e.V..

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 Marta, answered.

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