Uh.. ich bin nicht da. Wirklich nicht. Ich, äh, also eigentlich bin ich nicht… seufz, hier kann man sich echt nicht gut verstecken, schnüff. Also ich bin Orelia und, äh, ich bin hier ganz neu und so. Und, nun ja, ich bin eine Katze, also eine sehr schüchterne Katze, aber ich bin verträglich, glaube ich, nur nicht mit kleinen Kindern nicht. Ich bin eigentlich eine Freigang-Katze, ich bin Anhängerin der Freigang-Katzen-Kultur oder kurz FKK. Ich suche ein neues Zuhause, das mit mir viel Geduld hat. Also die Menschen darin, meine ich. Also nun, Orelia mein Name und wenn du beim Rausgehen vorsichti

About Orelia

What life with Orelia looks like

Orelia is a adult european shorthair cat waiting at Meine Katzenstation in Rüdersdorf bei Berlin.

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 Orelia, answered.

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