Adopt Pina und Vanni

European Shorthair · Female · Young · 1 year

And Vanni are the daughters of Ria. Both are currently still very shy and don’t know how to feel about us humans. Their brother, who found a new home with very loving and patient people relatively quickly, became trusting much faster than expected. His new guardians reported that it went faster than anticipated and want to encourage cat friends to give these two fur noses their fears a chance with time and patience in a quiet and safe environment. Update: The two are gradually losing their shyness towards us and are now being encouraged with a toy fishing rod.

und Vanni sind die Töchter von Ria. Beide sind momentan noch sehr scheu und wissen nicht, was sie von uns Menschen halten sollen. Ihr Bruder, der inzwischen ein neues Zuhause mit sehr liebevollen und geduldigen Menschen fand, wurde relativ zeitnah zutraulich. Seine neuen Dosenöffner berichteten, dass es schneller ging, als vermutet und sie Katzenfreunden Mut machen wollen, mit Zeit, Geduld in einem ruhigen und sicheren Umfeld auch diesen zwei Fellnasen ihre Ängste zu nehmen. Update: Die Beiden verlieren zunehmend ihre Scheu vor uns Menschen uns lassen sich inzwischen mit der Spielangel animieren.

About Pina und Vanni

What life with Pina und Vanni looks like

Pina und Vanni is a young adult european shorthair cat waiting at Katzenschutz Göppingen-Donzdorf in Donzdorf.

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 Pina und Vanni, answered.

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