Mia

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

The two-year-old Mia was deliberately left behind when her owners moved. Responsible neighbors, who did not turn a blind eye to Mia’s misery, informed the animal welfare organization. So, Mia found her way into the care of Katzen Engel e.V. Mia is a simple, calm, very loving cat who prefers to be with her people. She enjoys being stroked and loves her play and feather toys. The sweet mouse may take a few days to settle in but will then become more and more trusting. She prefers a quiet, peaceful environment and would likely be too loud and rambunctious for small children in the household. She has no experience with dogs. She generally gets along well with other cats (after proper introduction), but they should not be too dominant and should allow Mia her space. Otherwise, Mia will retreat and hide. We wish the sweet Mia a quiet home, with the possibility of using a securely enclosed balcony or having a roam in a less busy area after proper introduction. Mia is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, FIV and FeLV negative, and ready to go home. Would you like to meet the gentle beauty on her foster home in 51149 Köln and see if she can climb into your heart?. This cat needs outdoor access.

DE·Show original

Die zweijährige Mia wurde ganz bewusst zurückgelassen, als ihre Besitzer umzogen. Verantwortungsvolle Nachbarn, die nicht die Augen verschlossen haben vor Mias Elend, informierten den Tierschutz. So kam Mia auf Umwegen in die Obhut des Katzen-Engel e.V. Mia ist eine unkomplizierte, ruhige, sehr liebe Katze, die am liebsten mit ihren Menschen zusammen ist. Sie lässt sich sehr gerne streicheln und liebt ihre Spiel- und Federangeln. Die süße Maus benötigt zwar einige Tage bis sie sich eingewöhnt hat, wird aber dann Schritt für Schritt zutraulicher. Sie mag es nicht allzu turbulent, sondern eher gemütlich, beschaulich. Kleine Kinder im Haushalt wären ihr vermutlich zu laut und zu wuselig. Hunde kennt sie nicht. Grundsätzlich kommt sie gut mit anderen Katzen aus (nach entsprechender Eingewöhnung), aber diese sollten nicht zu dominant sein und Mia auch ihren Freiraum belassen. Ansonsten zieht sich Mia zurück und versteckt sich. Wir wünschen uns für die süße Mia ein ruhiges Zuhause, mit der Möglichkeit einen sicher eingenetzten Balkon zu nutzen oder mit Freigang in einer verkehrsärmeren Gegend, nach entsprechender Eingewöhnung. Mia ist kastriert, geimpft, gechipt, negativ auf FIV und FeLV getestet und wird mit Schutzvertrag und einer Schutzgebühr in Höhe von 200,00 EUR vermittelt. Möchten Sie die sanfte Schönheit auf ihrer Pflegestelle in 51149 Köln kennenlernen und schauen, ob sie auch in Ihr Herz klettern kann?

About Mia

What life with Mia looks like

Mia is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Katzen-Engel e.V. in Germany.

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 Mia, answered.

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