Mila

European Shorthair · Female · Young · 3 years

Mila came to us as a found animal with her kittens. Her children have already moved to a new home and she is still waiting. She is shy here and likes to withdraw. If it gets too much for her, she makes it clear that she doesn't like it. For Mila, we are looking for a home where she can enjoy outdoor time after the adjustment period. Maybe even a small farm. Where she has contact with people, but can also roam around alone.

Mila kam mit ihren Kitten als Fundtier zu uns. Ihre Kinder durften nun schon in ein neues Zuhause ziehen und sie wartet noch. Hier ist sie schüchtern und zieht sich gerne mal zurück. Wenn es ihr zu viel wird, zeigt sie einem klar, dass ihr dies nicht passt. Für Mila suchen wir ein Zuhause wo sie nach der Eingewöhnungszeit Freigang genießen kann. Vielleicht sogar einen kleinen Hof. Wo sie zwar Anschluss zu Menschen hat, aber auch alleine durch die Gegend streifen kann.

About Mila

What life with Mila looks like

Mila is a young adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Würzburg in Würzburg.

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 Mila, answered.

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