Adopt Poppy

Mixed Breed · Female

When you open the door to Room 5, you are greeted joyfully and longingly by Poppy. She wants to be stroked and noticed. Cuddles are more important to her than food and even more important than her roommates Frieda, Sophia, and Hermine. She gets along well with all three cats but is not particularly close to any of them. Since she has lived in a group so far, she should either move together with one of her roommates or be rehomed to a home where another fellow animal already lives.

Wenn man die Tür von Zimmer 5 öffnet, dann wird man freudig und sehnsüchtig von Poppy begrüßt. Sie möchte gestreichelt und beachtet werden. Streicheleinheiten sind ihr wichtiger als essen und auch wichtiger als ihre Mitbewohnerinnen Frieda, Sophia und Hermine. Sie verträgt sich mit allen drei Katzen gut, ohne mit einer näher befreundet zu sein. Da sie bisher in einer Gruppe lebt, sollte sie zusammen mit einer ihrer Mitbewohnerinnen umziehen oder in ein Zuhause vermittelt werden, in dem schon ein Artgenosse lebt.

About Poppy

What life with Poppy looks like

Poppy is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierrechtsorganisation Einhorn e.V. in Germany.

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 Poppy, answered.

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