Nala

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Young · 3 years

Lucky cat Nala was born on Crete in June 2023. Her start in life was not entirely ideal. Her mother passed away shortly after the birth, so Nala had to be raised on a bottle. In the beginning she was always a bit more delicate than the others. You can't tell anymore. Nala has grown into a healthy, very social cat. She enjoys cuddling with people and gets along wonderfully with other cats and dogs. At the end of May 2025, Nala moved into one of our foster homes. For the first few days she was very shy. But once she realized how wonderful it is in the foster home, she warmed up very quickly and enjoys being petted and playing with the children and other cats. Nala is a completely uncomplicated cat, compatible with other cats and dogs and tolerant of small children too. She is looking for a home with kind people and at least one other social cat. She would be very happy with a secured balcony.

Die Glückskatze Nala wurde im Juni 2023 auf Kreta geboren. Ihr Start war nicht ganz optimal. Ihre Mama verstarb kurz nach der Geburt, so das Nala mit der Flasche aufgezogen werden musste. Sie war anfangs immer etwas zarter als die Anderen. Davon merkt man jetzt nichts mehr. Nala ist eine gesunde, sehr soziale Katze geworden. Sie schmust gern mit Menschen und versteht sich prima mit anderen Katzen und Hunden. Ende Mai 2025 kam Nala in eine unserer Pflegestellen. Die ersten Tage war sie sehr schüchtern. Aber als sie merkte, wie toll es in der Pflegestelle ist, taute sie ganz schnell auf und freut sich über Streicheleinheiten und Spiele mit den Kindern und anderen Katzen. Nala ist eine völlig unkomplizierte Katze, kompatibel mit anderen Katzen und Hunden und verträglich auch mit kleinen Kindern. Sie sucht ein Zuhause bei netten Menschen und mindestens einer anderen, sozialen Katze. Über einen gesicherten Balkon freut sie sich sehr.

About Nala

What life with Nala looks like

Nala is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Leise-Pfoten e.V. in Germany.

A young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇩🇪Adopting from Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

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. Tierschutzverein Leise-Pfoten e.V. 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 Leise-Pfoten 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Nala already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: Most dogs 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 Leise-Pfoten e.V. 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.
