Miki

Female · Young · 2 years

Because of an upcoming move, apartment cat Miki was given up to us. Currently she is still very unsettled and has a hard time adjusting to the move into the animal shelter. But we are confident that after a few days she will feel more comfortable and reveal more of her character.

DE·Show original

Wegen eines anstehenden Umzugs wurde Wohnungskatze Miki bei uns abgegeben. Aktuell ist sie noch sehr durch den Wind und kommt mit dem Umzug ins Tierheim nur schwer zurecht. Aber wir sind guter Dinge, dass sie sich nach ein paar Tagen schon wohler fühlen wird und mehr von ihrem Charakter preis gibt.

About Miki

What life with Miki looks like

Miki is a young adult cat waiting at Tierheim Mayen in Mayen.

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 Miki, answered.

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