How do I contact the shelter about Numa?

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

Can I adopt Numa if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim an der Ron 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 Numa 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 Numa 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 an der Ron early rather than rehoming privately; they know Numa 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.

Numa

Mixed Breed Cat · Female · Young · 2 years

Numa came to our shelter as a shy, wild mother cat. With patience and care, she lovingly raised her kittens. Now her little ones are old enough to move to their own homes, and it's time for Numa to find her own happiness. Numa has since developed into a curious, affectionate, and extremely cuddly cat. Once she has gained trust, she enjoys the closeness to her humans and relishes in extensive petting. We wish for Numa a quiet home without young children, where she can continue to arrive at her own pace. After a suitable acclimation period, she would like to have free access to the outdoors through a cat flap. Therefore, we are looking for a home in a rural area, far from busy roads, where she can safely enjoy her wanderings. Currently, Numa still has some trouble with digestion. However, we are confident that this will soon normalize.

Numa kam als scheue, wilde Katzenmama zu uns ins Tierheim. Mit viel Geduld und Fürsorge hat sie ihre Kitten liebevoll grossgezogen. Nun sind ihre Kleinen alt genug, um in ihr eigenes Zuhause zu ziehen und auch für Numa ist die Zeit gekommen, ihr Glück zu finden. Inzwischen hat sich Numa zu einer neugierigen, anhänglichen und ausgesprochen verschmusten Katzendame entwickelt. Hat sie einmal Vertrauen gefasst, geniesst sie die Nähe zu ihren Menschen und freut sich über ausgiebige Streicheleinheiten. Für Numa wünschen wir uns ein ruhiges Zuhause ohne kleine Kinder, in dem sie weiterhin in ihrem eigenen Tempo ankommen darf. Nach einer angemessenen Eingewöhnungszeit möchte sie über eine Katzenklappe freien Zugang nach draussen haben. Deshalb suchen wir für sie ein Zuhause in einer ländlichen Gegend, fernab von stark befahrenen Strassen, wo sie ihre Streifzüge sicher geniessen kann. Aufgrund einer vermuteten Futtermittelunverträglichkeit benötigt Numa ein hypoallergenes Spezialfutter.

About Numa

What life with Numa looks like

Numa is a young adult mixed breed cat cat waiting at Tierheim an der Ron.

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 Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.
