Momo

Female · Adult · 6 years

Momo was already adopted once but unfortunately returned because she couldn't get along with the family's other cat. Momo is a confident female cat who can be very independent. She's a real cat, after all. Therefore, her new owners should already have experience with cats and there should be no small children living in their new home. Momo is a pure indoor cat.

DE·Show original

Momo wurde bereits einmal vermittelt und kam leider wieder zurück, weil sie sich mit der anderen Katze der Familie nicht anfreunden konnte. Momo ist eine selbstbewusste Katzendame, die sehr eigen sein kann. Eine richtige Katze eben. Daher sollten ihre neuen Besitzer bereits Erfahrung im Umgang mit Katzen mitbringen und es sollten keine kleinen Kinder in ihrem neuen zu Hause leben. Momo ist eine reine Wohnungskatze.

About Momo

What life with Momo looks like

Momo is a adult cat waiting at Tierheim Braunschweig in Braunschweig.

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 Momo, answered.

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