Melody

Female · Kitten · 2 months

Maxi & Melody - Mother and daughter seek their happiness together 🐾 Name: Maxi & Melody Breed: Mixed Born: Maxi: May 21, 2021 | Melody: May 19, 2026 Gender: Female Spayed: No Maxi and her daughter Melody would like to move into a new home together. The two complement each other wonderfully and give each other security. Mom Maxi is still a bit cautious and prefers to observe new situations from a distance at first. However, her curiosity is great - with some patience and the right people she will surely become bolder. Melody on the other hand is open, curious and explores her surroundings with much joy. We wish for them a quiet home with cat-experienced people who can read Maxi's body language well and give her time to arrive at her own pace. Who gives the two this chance will be rewarded with a great mother-daughter duo.

Maxi & Melody – Mutter und Tochter suchen gemeinsam ihr Glück 🐾 Name: Maxi & Melody Rasse: Mischling Geboren: Maxi: 21.05.2021 | Melody: 19.05.2026 Geschlecht: Weiblich Kastriert: Nein Maxi und ihre Tochter Melody möchten gerne gemeinsam in ein neues Zuhause ziehen. Die beiden ergänzen sich wunderbar und geben sich gegenseitig Sicherheit. Mama Maxi ist noch etwas vorsichtig und beobachtet neue Situationen zunächst lieber aus der Distanz. Ihre Neugier ist jedoch groß – mit etwas Geduld und den richtigen Menschen wird sie sicher immer mutiger werden. Melody hingegen ist ihrem Alter entsprechend offen, aufgeschlossen und erkundet ihre Umgebung mit viel Freude. Für die beiden wünschen wir uns ein ruhiges Zuhause bei Menschen mit Katzenerfahrung, die insbesondere Maxis Körpersprache gut lesen können und ihr die Zeit geben, in ihrem eigenen Tempo anzukommen. Wer den beiden diese Chance gibt, wird mit einem tollen Mutter-Tochter-Duo belohnt.

About Melody

What life with Melody looks like

Melody is a puppy/kitten cat waiting at Tierheim Ahlen in Ahlen.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Melody, answered.

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