How do I contact the shelter about Mimi?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Quellenhof Passbrunn handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Mimi on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Mimi if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Quellenhof Passbrunn 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 Mimi 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 Mimi 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 Quellenhof Passbrunn early rather than rehoming privately; they know Mimi 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.

Mimi

European Shorthair · Unknown · Senior · 11 years

Maxi and Mimi came to us as babies ten years ago and were rehomed then. Now, they have returned to the animal shelter after a tragic setback. Both needed time to understand and adjust to the new situation. However, they are in good health and now live in the cattery. Maxi and Mimi are very affectionate in character. Maxi is curious and shows great interest in everything held in the hand. He greets people joyfully. Mimi needs some time to build trust. Then she quickly comes out of her hiding place and enjoys being stroked. Mimi was diagnosed with diabetes. Therefore, a daily blood sugar test and, if necessary, an insulin shot are required. Additionally, she needs precise and timely feeding. We wish Maxi and Mimi a suitable home together that is suitable for apartment living. A secure balcony or secure terrace would of course be great. The new owners should have experience with diabetes in cats or be willing to take on the treatment. Further information can be obtained from our animal caretakers.

Maxi und Mimi kamen vor zehn Jahren als Babys zu uns und wurden damals vermittelt. Nun sind sie nach einem tragischen Schicksalsschlag wieder ins Tierheim zurückgekehrt. Beide brauchten Zeit, um die neue Situation zu verstehen und sich daran zu gewöhnen. Es geht ihnen aber gesundheitlich gut und sie leben inzwischen im Katzenhaus. Charakterlich sind Maxi und Mimi sehr liebevoll. Maxi ist neugierig und zeigt großes Interesse an allem, was man in der Hand hält. Er begrüßt Menschen immer freudig. Mimi braucht etwas Zeit, um Vertrauen zu fassen. Dann kommt sie aber schnell aus ihrem Versteck und lässt sich gern streicheln. Bei Mimi wurde Diabetes festgestellt. Deshalb ist eine tägliche Blutzuckermessung und gegebenenfalls eine Insulinspritze nötig. Außerdem braucht sie eine genaue und zeitliche Fütterung. Wir wünschen uns für Maxi und Mimi ein gemeinsames Zuhause in Wohnungshaltung. Ein gesicherter Balkon oder gesicherte Terrasse wäre natürlich toll. Die neuen Besitzer sollten Erfahrung mit Diabetes bei Katzen haben oder sich zutrauen, die Behandlung zu übernehmen. Weitere Informationen gibt es bei unseren Tierpflegern.

About Mimi

What life with Mimi looks like

Mimi is a large senior european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Quellenhof Passbrunn in Germany.

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.
