Miu

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Miu is a 2-year-old female cat who was rescued along with numerous other cats from the property of an elderly woman. After the owner's death, the animals were left to fend for themselves. The heavily littered property is located near a highway and a sewage treatment plant, making further care impossible. Miu is a calm and still very reserved cat who needs time to gain trust. We are looking for a understanding home with experienced cat owners who can approach her with patience, calmness, and empathy. A friendly, already affectionate companion would certainly help Miu to orient herself in her new home and gradually gain more confidence. Who will give this gentle cat the chance of a loving new beginning and show her how beautiful a safe home can be?

DE·Show original

Miu ist eine etwa 2 Jahre alte Katzendame, die gemeinsam mit zahlreichen weiteren Katzen von dem Grundstück einer Seniorin eingefangen wurde. Nach dem Tod der Besitzerin waren die Tiere völlig auf sich allein gestellt. Da das stark vermüllte Grundstück in unmittelbarer Nähe einer Autobahn und einer Kläranlage liegt, war eine weitere Versorgung dort nicht mehr möglich. Miu ist eine ruhige und noch sehr zurückhaltende Katze, die Zeit braucht, um Vertrauen zu fassen. Für sie wünschen wir uns ein verständnisvolles Zuhause bei katzenerfahrenen Menschen, die ihr mit Geduld, Ruhe und Einfühlungsvermögen begegnen. Ein freundlicher, bereits zutraulicher Artgenosse würde Miu dabei sicher helfen, sich an ihrem neuen Zuhause zu orientieren und Schritt für Schritt mehr Vertrauen zu gewinnen. Wer schenkt dieser sanften Katzendame die Chance auf einen liebevollen Neuanfang und zeigt ihr, wie schön ein behütetes Zuhause sein kann?

About Miu

What life with Miu looks like

Miu is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierasyl Chemnitz in Germany.

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 Miu, answered.

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