Minka &#8211

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 8 years

Minka, born 2018, is looking for a new loving home. She is a very sweet, affectionate and people-oriented cat who loves to be with her humans and often follows them around. She enjoys being stroked on her belly and enthusiastically plays fetch with hair ties. Minka has previously lived as an indoor cat with a secured balcony and was happy with that. After escaping through a window to the outdoors with her current owners, she now wants to have outdoor access. Since this is not possible there, a home with outdoor access or a secured balcony is being sought. Minka has Rolling Skin Syndrome and needs half a tablet in the morning and evening. The medication costs are around 90 euros per year. In addition, a blood test should be done once a year, which costs around 120 euros. The syndrome can be exacerbated by stress, which is why Minka needs enough time, peace and patient people after a move. Especially during the settling-in period, you should give her the opportunity to slowly get used to her new home and not give up too quickly. Minka occasionally nibbles on plants, so non-toxic plants should be considered in her new home. People who want to give Minka a permanent, loving home are being sought. If interested, please send an email to:

Minka, geboren 2018, sucht ein neues, liebevolles Zuhause. Sie ist eine sehr liebe, verschmuste und menschenbezogene Katze, die gerne bei ihren Menschen ist und ihnen häufig hinterherläuft. Sie lässt sich gerne am Bauch streicheln und apportiert mit Begeisterung Haargummis. Minka hat bisher als Wohnungskatze mit gesichertem Balkon gelebt und war damit zufrieden. Nachdem sie bei ihren jetzigen Besitzern einmal durch ein Fenster nach draußen gelangt ist, möchte sie nun gerne Freigang. Da dieser dort nicht möglich ist, wird für sie ein Zuhause mit Freigang oder einem gesicherten Balkon gesucht. Minka hat das Rolling-Skin-Syndrom und benötigt morgens und abends jeweils eine halbe Tablette. Die Medikamentenkosten liegen bei etwa 90 Euro im Jahr. Zusätzlich sollte einmal jährlich eine Blutkontrolle erfolgen, die etwa 120 Euro kostet. Das Syndrom kann durch Stress verstärkt werden, weshalb Minka nach einem Umzug ausreichend Zeit, Ruhe und geduldige Menschen braucht. Gerade in der Eingewöhnungszeit sollte man ihr die Möglichkeit geben, sich langsam an ihr neues Zuhause zu gewöhnen und nicht vorschnell aufzugeben. Minka knabbert gelegentlich an Pflanzen, weshalb in ihrem neuen Zuhause auf ungiftige Pflanzen geachtet werden sollte. Gesucht werden Menschen, die Minka ein dauerhaftes, liebevolles Zuhause geben möchten. Bei Interesse schreiben Sie eine E-Mail an:

About Minka &#8211

What life with Minka &#8211 looks like

Minka &#8211 is a adult mixed breed animal waiting at Tierschutzverein Radeberg in Radeberg.

Every animal has their own temperament and history. The shelter knows Minka &#8211 far better than any listing can convey — ask about daily routine, ideal household, and what kind of adopter they're hoping for.

Frequently asked

Adopting Minka &#8211, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Minka &#8211?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein Radeberg handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Minka &#8211 on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Minka &#8211 if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzverein Radeberg 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 Minka &#8211 already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most animals 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 Minka &#8211 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 Tierschutzverein Radeberg early rather than rehoming privately; they know Minka &#8211 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.
