Adopt Maze

Female · Young · 2 years

Maze was given up due to overburdened owners. Maze is a shy cat who prefers to stay in the background at the animal shelter. According to the previous owners, she marked the apartment. However, she has not shown this behavior with us so far. This, however, speaks to the fact that Maze is very sensitive and easily overburdened. Therefore, we are looking for a quiet and childless home for her. Maze wishes to have the possibility of going for a walk in her new home. This cat needs outdoor access.

Maze wurde wegen Überforderung der Halter abgegeben. Maze ist eine schüchterne Katze, die sich im Tierheim gern im Hintergrund aufhält. Laut der Vorbesitzer soll sie in der Wohnung markiert haben. Dieses Verhalten zeigt sie allerdings bei uns bislang nicht. Dies spricht aber dafür, dass Maze sehr sensibel und schnell überfordert ist. Daher suchen wir einen ruhigen und kinderlosen Haushalt für sie. Maze wünscht sich in ihrem neuen zu Hause die Möglichkeit Freigang zu bekommen.

About Maze

What life with Maze looks like

Maze is a young adult cat waiting at Tierheim Braunschweig in Braunschweig.

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 Maze, answered.

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