Mia

Female · Adult · 4 years

Mia was left in a box with her kittens in front of the animal shelter at APAC. The beautiful Mia is now looking for a loving home and suitable can openers. History: Mia was left in a box with her kittens in front of the animal shelter at APAC. Now the beautiful Mia is finally looking for a loving home and suitable can openers. Behavior: Mia is initially shy in initial contact due to her experiences and needs time to settle in. Since there is also a lack of time and staff at the shelter, she has not made further progress. She no longer runs away in panic when her box is entered, but stays lying down and observes. We think with a little patience we will certainly quickly gain her trust and explore her new kingdom. Mia currently lives together with other cats without problems and can certainly be kept as a house cat if she had a cat-proof balcony. Needs: For Mia, we are looking for a rather quiet household with patient people who are aware that she still needs time to build trust. Mia will not be kept alone and has been tested negative for FIV/VeLV.

Geschichte: Mia wurde zusammen mit ihren Katzenwelpen in einem Karton vor das Tierheim bei APAC abgelegt. Nun sucht auch die bildhübsche Mia endlich einen liebevollen Platz und geeignete Dosenöffner. Verhalten: Mia ist im Erstkontakt aufgrund ihrer Erfahrungen erst einmal schüchtern und braucht Zeit um sich einzugewöhnen. Da es auch im Tierheim an der Zeit sowir an Mitarbeitern fehlt, hat sie auch keine weiteren Fortschritte mehr gemacht. Sie rennt aber nicht mehr panisch weg, wenn ihre Box betreten wird, sondern bleibt liegen und beobachtet. Wir denken mit ein wenig Geduld wir sie sicherlich schnell Vertrauen fassen und ihr neues Reich erkunden. Mia lebt aktuell mit anderen Katzen problemlos zusammen und kann sicherlich auch gut als Wohnungskatze gehalten werden, wenn sie noch einen katzensicheren Balkon hätte. Bedürfnisse: Für Mia wünschen wir uns einen eher ruhigen Haushalt bei geduldigen Menschen, denen bewußt ist, dass sie noch Zeit braucht um Vertrauen aufzubauen. Mia wird nicht in Einzelhaltung abgegeben und ist FIV/VeLV negativ getestet.

About Mia

What life with Mia looks like

Mia is an adult cat waiting at Tiersinfonie Anou 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

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. Tiersinfonie Anou 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 — Tiersinfonie Anou 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
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 Tiersinfonie Anou 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.
