Rubia - EKH

European Shorthair · Male · Kitten

Roxy, Rubia, Roma and Ria are four siblings who were found together with their parents. The parents were spayed/neutered and returned to their original location where they are being cared for by their finders. The four kittens were moved to the shelter's adoption area after a short quarantine period. They are thriving there, finally having space to play and enjoy the company of the other cats in the house. What's especially nice is that the adult cats are very affectionate towards the quartet and give them lots of attention. However, they are still shy around people. They hide when someone enters the room and are very afraid. This fear is decreasing daily, but it takes a lot of time and patience to get them to play. We are looking for a home for all four where other cats already live. The siblings need familiar companions to hold on to and who can give them security. Later, secure outdoor access should be possible. The new owners should understand that building trust takes time. Older children are better suited, as well as people who have experience with shy cats.

Geboren: ca. 04/2026 im Tierheim seit: 29.06.2026 weiblich Roxy, Rubia, Roma und Ria sind vier Geschwister, die zusammen mit ihren Eltern gefunden wurden. Die Eltern konnten nach der Kastration an ihren Fundort zurück und werden von ihren Findern weiter betreut. Die vier Jungen durften nach einer kurzen Quarantänezeit in den Vermittlungsbereich des Tierheims umziehen. Dort blühen sie richtig auf. Sie haben endlich Platz zum Spielen und Toben und genießen die Gesellschaft der anderen Katzen im Haus sehr. Besonders schön ist, dass sich die erwachsenen Kater liebevoll um das Quartett kümmern und ihnen viel Nähe schenken. Der Kontakt zu Menschen fällt ihnen dagegen noch schwer. Sie verstecken sich, wenn jemand das Zimmer betritt, und haben große Angst. Diese Angst wird täglich weniger, doch es braucht viel Zeit und Geduld, bis sie zum Spielen zu bewegen sind. Wir suchen für alle vier ein Zuhause, in dem andere Katzen bereits leben. Die Geschwister brauchen vertraute Artgenossen, an die sie sich halten können und die ihnen Sicherheit geben. Später sollte gesicherter Freigang möglich sein. Die neuen Besitzer sollten verstehen, dass der Aufbau von Vertrauen Zeit kostet. Größere Kinder sind besser geeignet, ebenso Menschen, die Erfahrung im Umgang mit ängstlichen Katzen haben.

About Rubia - EKH

What life with Rubia - EKH looks like

Rubia - EKH is a large puppy/kitten european shorthair cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Dingolfing-Landau e.V. / Tierheim Quellenhof Passbrunn in Dingolfing.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇩🇪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 Rubia - EKH, answered.

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