Pirata

Female · Adult · 7 years

Hello, I am Pirata, I originally came from outside, but since FIV virus has been detected in me, I am no longer allowed to go out. Unless you can provide me with an enclosed garden or something similar. So far, I haven't really met any humans and I react very panic-stricken. With a lot of patience, that will certainly change. I am currently tolerable with other cats, but I should only be moved to other FIV-positive cats. My new humans should definitely be cat-experienced, and since I am still so fearful, there should be no children in my new home.

Hallo, ich bin die Pirata, ich komme ursprünglich von draußen, da man bei mir aber das FIV-Virus nachgewiesen hat, darf ich nun nicht mehr raus. Es sei denn, Ihr könnt mir einen eingezäunten Garten oder ähnliches zur Verfügung stellen. Bisher habe ich den Menschen noch nicht wirklich kennengelernt und reagiere sehr panisch. Mit viel Geduld wird das aber bestimmt noch. Mit anderen Katzen bin ich soweit verträglich. Allerdings sollte ich nur zu ebenfalls FIV-positiven Katzen ziehen. Meine neuen Menschen sollten auf jeden Fall katzenerfahren sein und da ich noch so ängstlich bin, sollten keine Kinder in meinem neuen Zuhause leben. Bis bald Eure Pirata

About Pirata

What life with Pirata looks like

Pirata is a adult cat waiting at Tierheim u. Tierschutzverein Kreis Ahrweiler e.V. / Tierheim Remagen. in Remagen.

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 Pirata, answered.

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