How do I contact the shelter about NAILA?

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

Can I adopt NAILA if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Katzenschutzbund 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 NAILA 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 NAILA 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 Katzenschutzbund early rather than rehoming privately; they know NAILA 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.

NAILA

Female · Young · 3 years

Naila and her kittens moved in with us in May 2024, but all of them have already been rehomed. Unfortunately, the lovely momma cat still hasn't found a suitable match. This might be because she wasn't very approachable at first. However, she has largely overcome her shyness around people and enjoys being petted by familiar individuals. She is not yet a cuddly cat - but that could change with some attention from her new owners. Naila used to live outdoors and after a few weeks of acclimation in her new home, she would benefit from outdoor access again. Naila comes only as a pair with her best friend Zita, whom she met here and has shared a room with since the beginning. The two cats raised their kittens together and are very attached to each other. Our cats are generally rehomed in pairs or added to an existing cat (with some exceptions). All cats are vaccinated, microchipped, and dewormed for a small fee and under a contract through the Osnabrück Cat Protection Association. We look forward to hearing from you! Until you meet your desired candidate in person, please observe Naila and her housemates online via the webcams at (Room A4). You can also find updates on many of our cats, including photos and videos, on Instagram, Facebook or our YouTube channel Katzenschutzbund Osnabrück e.V. There is always something going on in our cat house!

Unsere Naila zog im Mai 2024 mit ihren Kitten bei uns ein, die längst alle vermittelt sind. Nur für die tolle Mama hat sicher leider noch kein passender Dosenöffner gefunden. Das liegt vielleicht daran, dass sie zuerst nicht sehr zugänglich war. Mittlerweile hat sie aber ihre Scheu gegenüber Menschen größtenteils abgelegt und lässt sich von bekannte Personen gerne streicheln. Eine richtige Schmusekatze ist sie noch nicht - aber das kann ja noch werden, wenn man sich viel mit ihr beschäftigt. Naila hat früher draußen gelebt und braucht nach einer mehrwöchigen Eingewöhnung in ihrem neuen Zuhause möglichst wieder Freigang. Naila gibt es nur im Doppelpack mit ihrer allerbesten Freundin Zita, die sie hier bei uns kennengelernt hat und mit der sie von Anfang an das Zimmer geteilt hat. Die beiden haben zusammen ihre Jungen großgezogen und hängen sehr aneinander. Unsere Katzen werden grundsätzlich mindestens zu zweit oder zu einer vorhandenen und passenden Katze vermittelt (es gibt auch Ausnahmen im Sinne einiger Tiere). Alle werden geimpft, gechipt und entwurmt gegen Schutzgebühr und Schutzvertrag über den Katzenschutzbund Osnabrück abgegeben. Wir freuen uns sehr auf Ihre Kontaktaufnahme! Bis Sie Ihren Wunschkandidaten persönlich kennenlernen, beobachten Sie doch Naila und ihre Mitbewohner online über die Webcams auf (Raum A4). Neuigkeiten über viele unserer Schützlinge inkl. Fotos und Videos finden Sie natürlich auch bei Instagram, Facebook oder auf unserem YouTube Channel Katzenschutzbund Osnabrück e.V. In unserem Miezhaus ist nämlich immer was los!

About NAILA

What life with NAILA looks like

NAILA is a large young adult cat waiting at Katzenschutzbund in Brüggen-Bracht.

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.
