Princess

European Shorthair · Female

Princess ist eine sehr soziale und sanfte Katze, die mit ihrer zarten Art schnell die Herzen erobert. Anfangs zeigt sie sich noch etwas schüchtern und zurückhaltend. Doch ihre Neugier siegt schnell, und wenn sie Vertrauen gefasst hat, möchte sie ihre neue Umgebung in aller Ruhe entdecken.Für Princess wünschen wir uns ein Zuhause mit Freigang, in dem sie nach Herzenslust ihre Umgebung erkunden und anschließend wieder in die Sicherheit ihres Zuhauses zurückkehren kann. Da Princess sehr sozial ist, wünschen wir uns für sie grundsätzlich eine ebenso zarte und soziale Katzengesellschaft. Aktuell bandelt sie mit Freya an.Mit Freigang kann sie jedoch auch als Einzelkatze ausziehen, sofern sie dort viel liebevolle Aufmerksamkeit und Beschäftigung durch ihre Menschen bekommt.

About Princess

What life with Princess looks like

Princess is an adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Herne-Wanne in Herne.

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 Princess, answered.

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