How do I contact the shelter about Roxy?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Wetzlar handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Roxy on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Roxy if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Wetzlar 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 Roxy 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 Roxy 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 Wetzlar early rather than rehoming privately; they know Roxy 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.

Roxy

European Shorthair · Male

Hello, I am Roxy 🥰 As an unregistered and unneutered stray cat, I came to the animal shelter with Candy, all sparkly and covered in glitter and candy 🤢 Well…whatever it was, it's over and now things are getting better ❤️🍀 Unfortunately, we don't understand each other anymore and are therefore each looking for a new home on our own. I would like to live in a place suitable for apartment living, maybe you have a balcony for sunbathing? 🌞 I would also be happy if there was already a tomcat of a similar age living there ❤️ I don't get along very well with girls 🫣 I am a mega cuddly cat and really enjoy it 😍 Children should be a bit bigger, because our experiences with them haven't been so good 🙈 Who wants to meet me? 🍀 Contact the animal shelter, preferably by email: Then we can go on a date and I will do everything to convince you 🥰 Until hopefully very soon, yours Roxy ❤️❤️ (This description of me is just a snapshot from the shelter day-to-day. I can develop very differently in a new home.) Please read our criteria for adoption on our homepage: Adoption Criteria – animal welfare association Wetzlar and surroundings e.V.

About Roxy

What life with Roxy looks like

Roxy is a adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Wetzlar in Wetzlar.

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.
