How do I contact the shelter about Mr. Nelly?

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

Can I adopt Mr. Nelly if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Seelenkatzen 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 Mr. Nelly 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 Mr. Nelly 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 Seelenkatzen e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Mr. Nelly 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.

Adopt Mr. Nelly

Mixed Breed · Male

Location: Romania, Orastie Gender: male, neutered Born: ca. early 2022 Personality: Very social towards fellow animals, no single housing! Knows dogs and is people-oriented. Condition: FIV positive May I introduce myself? I am the loving Mr. Nelly, a kind woman found me on a busy street where I was wandering around. There was no reason for a cat to be there, it was too dangerous! I can't even explain how I ended up there. I try not to think about it. Either I was born on the street and was searching for food there, or I was abandoned there. As I am so friendly and immediately seek the proximity of humans, the kind woman took me in and now I am waiting here at my foster home, together with other former street cats, for a loving home! I get along very well with the other cats, am very social, and therefore do not want to be in single housing. If you do not have a suitable partner cat for me, then I can bring a friend from my foster home. Just ask my fosterer with whom I get along well. Currently, I only live in the apartment and I feel very comfortable here and would not want to go outside. Therefore, a home that is suitable for apartment living would be optimal for me. I have already received my first vaccinations against cat flu, -disease, and also a rabies vaccination, am already neutered, treated against parasites, and if I travel to you, I will also receive a microchip and an EU pet passport. See you soon! Your Mr. This animal is microchipped.

Standort: Rumänien, Orastie Geschlecht: männlich, kastiert Geboren: ca. Anfang 2022 Charakter: Sehr sozial Artgenossen gegenüber, keine Einzelhaltung! Kennt auch Hunde und ist menschenbezogen. Handicap: FiV positiv Darf ich mich vorstellen? Ich bin der liebe Mr. Nelly, eine liebe Frau hat mich an einer vielgefahrenen Straße gefunden, wo ich umher irrte. Dort hatte wirklich keine Katze etwas zu suchen, viel zu gefährlich! Ich kann mir gar nicht mehr erklären, wie ich da hingekommen bin. Ich verdränge das. Entweder wurde ich auf der Strasse geboren und suchte dort nach Essen oder ich wurde dort ausgesetzt. Da ich so freundlich bin und sofort die Nähe von Menschen suchen, hat mich die liebe Frau mitgenommen und nun warte ich hier auf meiner Pflegestelle, zusammen mit anderen ehemaligen Starßenkatzen, auf ein liebevolles Zuhause! Ich verstehe mich mit den anderen Katzen sehr gut, bin sehr sozial und deshalb möchte ich keinesfalls in Einzelhaltung. Sollte bei dir noch keine passende Partnerkatze für mich wohnen, dann kann ich gerne eine Freundin von meiner Pflegestelle mitbringen. Frag einfach meine Vermittlerin mit wem ich mich gut verstehe. Zurzeit wohne ich ausschließlich in der Wohnung und ich fühle mich hier sehr wohl und möchte eigentlich gar nicht mehr nach draußen. Deshalb wäre eine reine Wohnungshaltung optimal für mich. Ich habe schon meine Erstimpfungen gegen Katzenschnupfen, -seuche und auch eine Tollwutimpfung erhalten, bin schon kastriert, gegen Parasiten behandelt und wenn ich zu dir reise werde ich auch einen Mikrochip und einen EU-Heimtierausweis erhalten. Bis bald! Dein Mr. Nelly

About Mr. Nelly

What life with Mr. Nelly looks like

Mr. Nelly is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Seelenkatzen e.V. in Barsinghausen.

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.
