How do I contact the shelter about Nala?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein Bad Kreuznach 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 — Tierschutzverein Bad Kreuznach 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 Tierschutzverein Bad Kreuznach 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.

Nala

Mixed Breed Cat · Female · Young · 2 years

Nala is a 2024-born female cat who is very sociable with people and other cats and would love to have feline friends in her new home. It's important that these new friends are also FIV positive. Please note that FIV is not transmissible to humans and does not necessarily mean the end of a long and happy life for your new cat. We would be happy to tell you more about this during our personal conversation. Nala is currently in foster care where she is described as playful and active. She loves chasing her feather toy and uses her claws, which can make her a bit rough around the edges, so I don't think she's suitable for very young children. However, she is very curious and needs to explore everything. She can even open drawers on your wardrobe. Once Nala trusts you, she will let you pet her and even hold her for a short time, although she doesn't particularly like being held. Nala loves to tell stories, and you can recognize from the tone of her meow whether she wants to play or has treats in mind. She enjoys observing everything through the window, as shown in the picture. A secure balcony would be ideal for her. Nala is not a difficult cat; when frustrated, she tends to become a bit grumpy. However, she always makes it very clear if something doesn't please her. In essence, she is just like any other typical cat.

Diese zierliche Kätzin ist 2024 geboren. Nala ist mit Menschen und anderen Katzen überaus kontaktfreudig und freut sich sicher über Artgenossen im neuen Zuhause. Artgenossen sollten ebenfalls bereits positiv getestet sein. FIV ist nicht auf Menschen übertragbar und noch lange kein Todesurteil. Auch eine FIV positive Katze kann ein langes und glückliches Leben führen. Gerne können wir Ihnen im persönlichen Gespräch mehr darüber erzählen. Nala befindet sich derzeit auf einer Pflegestelle und wird dort wie folgt beschrieben: Nala ist eine verspielte aktive Katze. Sie liebt es der Reizangel hinterher zu jagen und setzt dabei auch ihre Krallen ein. Dabei kann sie etwas unsanft werden, deshalb denke ich sie sollte nicht zu kleinen Kindern. Außerdem ist sie sehr neugierig und muss alles erkunden. Sie ist sogar in der Lage am Kleiderschrank Schubladen zu öffnen. Wenn Nala erst mal Vertrauen gefasst hat lässt sie sich streicheln und sogar kurz auf den Arm nehmen, obwohl sie es nicht besonders mag festgehalten zu werden. Nala erzählt gerne, an der Tonlage erkennt man auch ob sie etwas möchte z. Bsp. Spielen od. Leckerlis. Sie findet es toll am Fenster alles zu beobachten, wie man auf dem Bild sehen kann. Ein gesicherter Balkon wäre deshalb schön für sie. Nala ist keine schwierige Katze, sie neigt bei Frust dazu etwas zickig zu werden. Sie zeigt aber immer ganz klar wenn ihr etwas nicht gefällt. Im Grunde eine typische Katze.

About Nala

What life with Nala looks like

Nala is a young adult mixed breed cat cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Bad Kreuznach in Bad Kreuznach.

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.
