Adopt NOOMI

Female · Young · 3 years

Just look at THIS pretty little face!! 🤩 NOOMI isn’t really afraid of people, but she also apparently sees no need to let us pet her. EXCEPT maybe she can snag a treat if she comes closer. Then she might make an exception and very carefully take the treat from the hand of someone she knows a little, and grudgingly allow herself to be petted. And if that person presents the RIGHT toy, she might even be persuaded into a little play session. NOOMI has never had a home of her own and doesn’t know life with a human family. If you decide to adopt her, you’ll probably need to be patient until she becomes truly trusting – but with the right treats, it’ll definitely happen. NOOMI definitely needs feline company and would love to bring along her loyal friend Otto or Zorro. The three get along wonderfully (NOOMI is of course the boss ;-) and it would be a dream if they could all find a loving home together. For animal welfare reasons, our rescues are always rehomed at least in pairs, or to a household with an existing compatible cat. We’re happy to advise you on who matches with whom. All are vaccinated, microchipped, and dewormed for an adoption fee, and we look forward to hearing from you! Until you get to meet your dream candidate in person, you can watch NOOMI and her roommates online via our webcams in (Raum A3) or on our YouTube channel Katzenschutzbund Osnabrück e.V. There’s always something going on!. This animal was surrendered to the shelter.

Schaut Euch doch mal DIESES hübsche Gesichtchen an!! 🤩 Noomi hat zwar keine große Angst vor Menschen, aber sie sieht auch scheinbar keine Notwendigkeit, sich von uns streicheln zu lassen. AUSSER sie kann vielleicht ein Leckerli ergattern, wenn sie näher kommt. Dann kann man auch mal eine Ausnahme machen und das Leckerli ganz vorsichtig aus der Hand einer Person nehmen, die man ein bisschen kennt und sich dann notgedrungen streicheln lassen. Und wenn diese Person das RICHTIGE Spielzeug präsentiert, kann man sich auch mal auf ein kleines Spielchen einlassen. Noomi hatte noch nie ein eigenes Zuhause und kennt kein Leben mit einer Menschenfamilie. Wenn man sich für sie entscheidet, muss man wahrscheinlich Geduld haben, bis sie richtig zutraulich wird - aber mit den richtigen Leckerlis wird das bestimmt was. Noomi braucht auf jeden Fall Katzengesellschaft und bringt gerne ihren treuen Freund Otto oder Zorro mit. Die 3 verstehen sich bestens (Noomi ist natürlich die Chefin ;-) und ein Traum wäre, wenn sie alle gemeinsam ein liebevolles Zuhause finden würden. Unsere Schützlinge werden aus Tierschutzgründen immer nur mindestens zu zweit oder zu einer vorhandenen und passenden Katze vermittelt. Wir beraten Sie gerne, wer zu wem passt. Alle werden geimpft, gechipt und entwurmt gegen Schutzgebühr und Schutzvertrag über den Katzenschutzbund Osnabrück abgegeben. Wir freuen uns sehr auf Ihre Kontaktaufnahme! Bis Sie Ihren Wunschkandidaten persönlich kennenlernen, beobachten Sie doch Noomi und ihre Zimmergenossen online über die Webcams auf (Raum A3) oder auf unserem YouTube Channel Katzenschutzbund Osnabrück e.V. Da ist immer was los!

About NOOMI

What life with NOOMI looks like

NOOMI is a large young adult cat waiting at Katzenschutzbund in Brüggen-Bracht.

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 NOOMI, answered.

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