Miah

Female · Senior · 11 years

Hello, I am Miah. I came to the animal shelter because my owner unfortunately could no longer take care of me. Here I am in the big cat house, but I still find everything a bit scary and need some time to get used to my new surroundings. With familiar people, I am very cuddly, but I am more fearful and reserved around strangers, and I need to build trust first. Loud noises and chaos are not for me; I will quickly hide somewhere. That's why I need a quiet home without a lot of hustle and bustle, and one without children, as I am afraid of them. Maybe there is someone out there who can let me settle in in peace, who does not expect too much from me, and with whom I can share my trust. If you are interested, please contact the animal shelter.

Hallo, ich bin Miah. Ich kam ins Tierheim, weil mein Herrchen sich leider nicht mehr um mich kümmern konnte. Hier bin ich im großen Katzenhaus, aber finde das alles noch etwas gruselig und brauche noch etwas Zeit, um mich hier einzugewöhnen. Bei vertrauten Menschen bin ich sehr verschmust, aber Fremden gegenüber bin ich eher ängstlich und zurückhaltend, da muss ich erstmal Vertrauen fassen. Laute Geräusche und Hektik sind gar nichts für mich, da verkrieche ich mich schnell irgendwo hin. Deswegen brauche ich unbedingt ein ein ruhiges Zuhause, in dem kein großer Trubel herrscht und ohne Kinder, vor denen hab ich nämlich Angst. Vielleicht gibt es ja jemanden da draußen, bei dem ich mich in Ruhe einleben kann, der nicht zu viel von mir erwartet und dem ich mein Vertrauen schenken kann. Wenn ich euer Interesse geweckt habe, dann meldet euch doch im Tierheim. Eure Miah

About Miah

What life with Miah looks like

Miah is a large senior cat waiting at Tierheim u. Tierschutzverein Kreis Ahrweiler e.V. / Tierheim Remagen. in Remagen.

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 Miah, answered.

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