Nala

European Shorthair · Female · Young · 1 year

Nala came to our animal shelter together with Lara and Gismo as drop-off cats. Upon arrival, Nala had a complicated leg fracture that required surgery. She's doing much better now and the strain can be gradually increased, so she's currently on the lookout for a suitable home. Nala is a super cuddly and clingy cat. She's playful and still has plenty of energy typical for a young cat. The beautiful cat would like to become an outdoor cat again in her new home.

Nala kam gemeinsam mit Lara und Gismo als Abgabekatze zu uns ins Tierheim. Nala hatte bei ihrer Ankunft bei uns einen komplizierten Beinbruch, der operiert werden musste. Inzwischen geht es ihr wesentlich besser und die Belastung darf langsam gesteigert werden und somit ist sie nun auch auf der Suche nach einem passenden Zuhause. Nala ist eine super verschmuste und anhängliche Katze. Sie ist verspielt und hat typisch für eine junge Katze noch viel Energie.Die schöne Katze möchte im neuen Zuhause gerne wieder Freigängerin werden.

About Nala

What life with Nala looks like

Nala is a young adult european shorthair cat waiting at BMT Tierheim Arche Noah Stuhr 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 Nala, answered.

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