How do I contact the shelter about Nisa?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Wuppertal handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Nisa on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Nisa if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Wuppertal 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 Nisa 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 Nisa 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 Tierheim Wuppertal early rather than rehoming privately; they know Nisa 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.

Nisa

Mixed Breed · Female

Nisa was dropped off at our shelter, as the owner could no longer care for her. She is a very lively wild mouse who is always on the move throughout the day. She enjoys any contact and is immediately involved in everything. It really is fun to watch how much joy she has. Despite a neurological anomaly whose cause we do not know, she can only move a bit differently than other cats, but she has no problems with it. She would certainly be very happy to have an active fellow animal to explore the "world" with. Unfortunately, despite her vaccination, she carries the Herpesvirus, which can flare up occasionally but does not cause major problems. However, this virus is unfortunately contagious to healthy cats. Therefore, Nisa can only be suitable for apartment living, where she gets plenty of space and climbing opportunities to keep her busy. This animal was surrendered to the shelter.

Nisa wurde bei uns abgegeben, da der Besitzer sich nicht mehr um sie kümmern konnte. Sie ist eine sehr aufgeweckte wilde Maus die den ganzen Tag in Bewegung ist. Sie freut sich über jeglichen Kontakt und ist bei allem sofort dabei. Es macht wirklich Spaß ihr zu zu sehen wie viel Lebensfreude sie hat. Dies trotz einer neurologischen Auffälligkeit, dessen Ursache wir nicht kennen. Man kann es nur erkennen das sie sich manchmal etwas anders als andere Katzen bewegt. Sie hat dadurch aber keinerlei Probleme. Über einen aufgeweckten Artgenossen, der mit ihr die "Welt" erkundet würde Nisa sich sicherlich sehr freuen. Leider hat sie trotz Impfung den Herpesvirus in sich, welcher immer mal wieder ausbrechen kann aber keine großen Probleme bereitet. Dieser ist aber leider ansteckend für gesunde Katzen. Daher ist für Nisa auch nur eine Wohnungshaltung möglich, in der sie aber viel Platz und Klettermöglichkeiten bekommt um sich auslasten zu können. Wer die hübsche Maus einmal kennen lernen möchte kann gerne zu den

About Nisa

What life with Nisa looks like

Nisa is a large adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Wuppertal in Wuppertal.

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.
