Melody

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Melody, born on 09/25, was found without a mother. She had severe cat dandruff and was carefully nurtured. She has recovered well, although one eye is now non-functional due to the severe progression. Melody doesn't mind at all, with the remaining eye she sees enough. She is age-appropriate, curious, and should ideally be placed with a same-aged cat in a suitable apartment living environment. She also gets along well with our Finn. Due to her visual impairment and limited sight, she should not have free roam. A secured balcony would be great, and children from elementary school age are possible. Anyone who would like to meet our energetic Melody, please send an email to: -14 { margin: auto; } -14 -14 img { border: 2px solid ; }

DE·Show original

Melody, 09/25 geboren Melody wurde aufgefunden ohne Mutter. Sie hatte massiven Katzenschupfen und wurde sehr behutsam gepäppelt. Sie hat sich super erholt, ein Auge ist allerdings jetzt wegen des massiven Verlaufs ohne Funktion. Melody stört das überhaupt nicht, mit dem intakten Auge sieht sie genug. Sie ist altersentsprechend auf Zack und neugierig und sollte unbedingt zu gleichaltriger Katze in Wohnungshaltung ziehen. Sie zieht auch gerne mit unserem Finn aus. Wegen ihrer Sehbehinderung und der eingeschränkten Sicht sollte sie keinen Freigang haben. Ein gesicherter Balkon wäre super, Kinder ab Grundschule möglich. Wer unsere quirlige Melody gerne kennnenlernen möchte, schreibt eine E-Mail an: -13 { margin: auto; } -13 -13 img { border: 2px solid ; } -13 /* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes/media.php */

About Melody

What life with Melody looks like

Melody is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Pirmasens in Pirmasens.

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 Melody, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Melody?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Pirmasens 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 Pirmasens 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 Pirmasens 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.
