Nemesis

European Shorthair · Female · Young · 1 year

I was found on May 23rd at our area and brought to our shelter on May 24th. I was quite hungry and just want to go home. I am not microchipped and whether I have been neutered will be checked soon. My age is estimated, but I am definitely still quite young. Who misses me?

DE·Show original

Ich wurde am 23.5 nachts am Moskauer Platz gefunden und am 24.5. ins Tierheim gebracht. Ich war recht ausgehungert und möchte eigentlich wieder nach Hause. ------------------------ Ich bin inzwischen gechipt und auch kastriert. Mein Alter ist geschätzt, aber ich bin definitiv noch recht jung, aber habe meinen eigen Willen und andere Katzen mag ich nicht so sehr, dafür liebe ich mein Futter :-) Wer sucht eine Katze mit Charakter?

About Nemesis

What life with Nemesis looks like

Nemesis is a small young adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheimverein Erfurt 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 Nemesis, answered.

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