Adopt Nilsine

Mixed Breed · Female · Kitten · 7 months

Our Nilsine is a roughly 7-month-old female kitten who is a bit shy and needs time to build trust. In a quiet environment, she can open up and show her gentle nature. For Nilsine, we would like a home with a rural outdoor space, so that she can venture outside once she has settled in. Additionally, she should only be rehomed as a second cat, as having a confident feline companion provides her with security and helps her become braver. A quiet household with patience and understanding would be ideal for Nilsine.

Unsere Nilsine ist eine etwa 7 Monate alte, weibliche Jungkatze, die noch etwas schüchtern ist und Zeit braucht, um Vertrauen zu fassen. In einem ruhigen Umfeld kann sie sich gut öffnen und ihre sanfte Art zeigen. Für Nilsine wünschen wir uns ein Zuhause mit ländlichem Freigang, damit sie – sobald sie sich eingelebt hat – die Möglichkeit hat, draußen unterwegs zu sein. Außerdem soll sie nur als Zweitkatze vermittelt werden, da ihr ein souveräner Katzenpartner Sicherheit gibt und ihr hilft, mutiger zu werden. Ein ruhiger Haushalt mit Geduld und Verständnis wäre ideal für Nilsine.

About Nilsine

What life with Nilsine looks like

Nilsine is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Trier und Umgebung e.V. in Germany.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇩🇪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 Nilsine, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Nilsine?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein Trier und Umgebung e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Nilsine on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Nilsine if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzverein Trier und Umgebung 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Nilsine 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 Nilsine 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 Trier und Umgebung e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Nilsine 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.
