Adopt Ohnezahn

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Adult · 10 years

Ohnezahn came into our care as a stray at the beginning of April. Unfortunately, no owner has come forward for the approximately 10-year-old female cat, so she is now looking for a suitable new home. Ohnezahn bears her name for good reason—you can probably imagine why. Aside from being toothless, sweet Ohnezahn is in great shape. She may be a bit shy at first, but she warms up quickly and then loves cuddling as much as possible. Her compatibility with other animals hasn’t yet been tested under shelter conditions. We assume Ohnezahn is familiar with outdoor life, so we hope that after an adjustment period, she’ll be given the opportunity for outdoor access. Her behavior in a home environment may therefore differ from the descriptions provided.

Ohnezahn kam Anfang April als Fundtier in unsere Obhut. Leider hat sich für die circa 10-jährige Katzendame bisher kein Besitzer gemeldet, weswegen sie nun auf der Suche nach einem neuen passenden Zuhause ist. Ohnezahn trägt ihren Namen nicht ohne Grund, man kann es sich vermutlich vorstellen. Doch bis auf dass sie keine Zähne mehr hat, geht es der lieben Ohnezahn richtig gut. Sie zeigt sich zwar anfänglich etwas schüchtern, doch das Eis ist schnell gebrochen und dann wird geschmust was das Zeug hält. Die Verträglichkeit mit Artgenossen konnte unter Tierheimbedingungen leider noch nicht getestet werden. Wir gehen davon aus, dass Ohnezahn das Leben draußen kennt, weswegen wir uns wünschen, dass sie nach einer Eingewöhnungszeit die Möglichkeit auf Freigang erhält. Bitte beachten Sie: Die Tierbeschreibungen basieren auf Beobachtungen im Tierheim oder auf Informationen Dritter und stellen keine zugesicherten Eigenschaften dar. Das Verhalten in familiärer Unterbringung kann deshalb von den Beschreibungen abweichen.

About Ohnezahn

What life with Ohnezahn looks like

Ohnezahn is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Zwickau in Zwickau.

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 Ohnezahn, answered.

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