Adopt Mossia

Mixed Breed · Unknown

The little old Lady came to us in poor health because she was no longer wanted. Now her health has improved, and her mood has risen significantly. After some trust-building, she is very cute and cuddly. However, like a typical cat, she can also end a petting session with a well-executed swipe 😉 She can become insecure quickly, but if she trusts you, she is very, very cuddly! Other cats cause her enormous stress, so she should definitely be able to live without fellow animals in her new home. Up until now, she has only known life as an "outdoor" cat and needs the opportunity to continue with free roam. If you can open your heart to the old lady, you will get a small gold piece with small, charming edges and a big personality!. This cat needs outdoor access.

Die kleine alte Lady kam zu uns in schlechtem Gesundheitszustand, weil man ihrer überdrüssig wurde. Jetzt geht es ihr gesundheitlich besser und ihre Laune ist stark gestiegen. Nach etwas Vertrauensaufbau ist sie sehr niedlich und kuschelig. Allerdings kann sie, ganz katzentypisch, die Streicheleinheit auch mal mit einem gekonnten Schlag beenden 😉 Sie wird schnell unsicher, aber wenn sie vertraut ist sie sehr sehr verschmust! Andere Katzen erzeugen bei ihr enormen Stress, daher sollte sie auf jeden Fall in ihrem neuen Zuhause ohne Artgenossen leben dürfen. Bisher kennt sie nur das Leben als „Draußen“-Katze und braucht unbedingt die Möglichkeit weiter Freigang zu bekommen. Wenn ihr euer Herz für die alte Dame öffnen könnt, bekommt ihr ein kleines Goldstück, mit kleinen, charmanten Kanten und großem Charakter!

About Mossia

What life with Mossia looks like

Mossia is a small adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Minden e.V. in Minden.

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 Mossia, answered.

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