Mayu

Female · Adult · 4 years

Hello, I am the little Mayu, I was found with my mom and my four siblings. We were still quite small and spent some time out walking with mom, being fed by nice people. But that couldn't continue, so we were all collected and are now living at a foster home in Bonn. But we can't stay there forever and are now looking for a new home where I can enjoy my freedom later. I would love to move out with one of my siblings, but even if you already have a young, very playful cat, that wouldn't be a problem. We are very people-oriented and love to be cuddled. The caretakers from the Ahrtal say that even the cats know it's a black year because so many people and animals died in the flood. As you can see, the black year hasn't passed us by either, and we all wear our fancy black dresses. This cat needs outdoor access.

Hallo, ich bin die kleine Mayu, ich wurde zusammen mit meiner Mama und meinen vier Geschwistern gefunden. Wir waren noch recht klein und sind erstmal zusammen mit Mama eine Weile draußen herum gelaufen und wurden von netten Leuten gefüttert. So konnte das aber nicht weitergehen, daher wurden wir alle eingesammelt und leben nun auf einer Pflegestelle in Bonn. Hier können wir aber auch nicht immer bleiben und sind nun auf der Suche nach einem neuen Zuhause, dort möchte ich später gerne meinen Freigang genießen können. Am liebsten würde ich zusammen mit einem von meinen Geschwistern ausziehen, wenn aber bereits eine junge noch sehr verspielte Katze bei Dir wohnt, ist das auch kein Problem. Wir sind sehr menschenbezogen und schmusebedürftig. Die Pfleger hier aus dem Ahrtal sagen, sogar die Katzen wissen, dass ein schwarzes Jahr ist, weil so viele Menschen und Tiere sterben mussten bei der Flut. Wie man sieht, ist auch an uns das schwarze Jahr nicht vorbei gezogen und wir schmücken uns alle mit einem schicken schwarzen Kleid. Die sagen auch, wir hätten keine guten Chancen auf

About Mayu

What life with Mayu looks like

Mayu is a small adult cat waiting at Tierheim u. Tierschutzverein Kreis Ahrweiler e.V. / Tierheim Remagen. in Remagen.

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 Mayu, answered.

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