Mia

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Senior · 14 years

Die hübsche dreifarbige Mia hat bisher zusammen mit zwei weiteren Katzen in reiner Wohnungshaltung gelebt. Sie zeigte sich vom ersten Tag an bei uns im Tierheim Melle relativ aufgeschlossen. Nach kurzer Zeit kommt sie um neue Besucher zu inspizieren und mag sehr gerne gestreichelt werden. Mia ist 14 Jahre alt. Sie ist komplett tierärztlich durchgecheckt, ihr Blutbild verriet, alles bestens nur die Schilddrüse macht nicht so richtig was sie soll. Mia hat eine Schilddrüsenüberfunktion und bekommt jetzt täglich ein Medikament. Mia´s Zähnchen sind altersentsprechend und werden von unserer Tierärztin in Kürze noch einmal auf Hochglanz gebracht. Für Mia suchen wir nun ein gemütliches Zuhause. Gern kann sie mit ihrer Freundin Emma gemeinsam umziehen – dies ist aber kein Muss. Wichtig jedoch bei reinen Wohnungskatzen: Diese vermitteln wir nur zu zweit oder zu einer bereits vorhandenen Samtpfote. 3 Katzen ausgesetzt? Ein Vorfall der uns fassungslos macht!

About Mia

What life with Mia looks like

Mia is a medium-sized senior mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Melle in Melle.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇩🇪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. Tierheim Melle 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 — Tierheim Melle 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 Tierheim Melle 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.
