Pia

European Shorthair · Female

Halt! Ha! Du fragst dich jetzt bestimmt: „Sekunde, bitte, wieso trägt diese Katze eine Krawatte?“, „Wieso guckt sie mich so intensiv an“ und: „Wieso verstehe ich sie?“ – die Antwort ist jeweils ganz einfach: „Pia, mein Name und ich denke, nein: ich weiß, dass du mich gerne mitnehmen möchtest!“. DAS verstehe ich sehr gut, ich würde mich ja selbst einpacken und mitnehmen. Uhh, warte, ist das einer dieser schicken Schlüssel, die ihr in eure großen Brumbrums packt um damit ganz schnell woanders hinzukommen? Ja, die finde ich großartig! Oh, wo war ich… ah ja, genau, du wolltest wissen, was ich so b

About Pia

What life with Pia looks like

Pia is a large 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Pia, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Pia?: 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 Pia on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Pia 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Pia 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 Pia 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 Pia 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.
