Sahaba

Mixed Breed Cat · Female · Kitten · 4 months

Sahaba is a calm, loving girl. She is the sister of Kumo and Yuki. When she is not stretched out on her back, she loves to play with her siblings and/or people. She doesn't seem to be fundamentally opposed to people, but she (still) doesn't let herself be touched. The three are generally still quite reserved with people - they love playing with different toys, but direct contact with people is (still) suspicious to them. They will need some time to fully trust people. As they age, the three also like to play and often play together and love to climb on everything when they are not sleeping together. Cat visit / adoption Calliope's Kitten History Calliope was spotted with her kittens on an abandoned farm. The attentive neighbors noticed the small cat family and asked us for help. Calliope has since been spayed. Judging by the kittens' social behavior, they were probably born in the wild and had no previous direct contact with people. Calliope has several small scars from previous injuries (small cut on the right hind paw, punctual wounds on the back), which have since healed well. We are looking for new homes for the group with outdoor access in the countryside with a cat door. The siblings are preferred to be placed together (two or three). The four are also still listed in the STMZ Calliope Kumo Sahaba Yuki

DE·Show original

Sahaba ist ein zahmes, liebes, anfänglich noch etwas scheues Mädchen. Ihrem anfänglichen Verhalten nach zu urteilen hat sie die ersten Wochen ihres Lebens wahrscheinlich in der Wildnis verbracht. So war sie die ersten Wochen mit uns Menschen noch äusserst scheu und hat direkten Kontakt konsequent gemieden. Nachdem sie dann jedoch einmal den Mut gefunden hatte, sich streicheln zu lassen, kam sie schnell zur Einsicht, dass das Ganze gar nicht so gefährlich ist und sich eigentlich ganz gut anfühlt. Inzwischen kann sie kaum genug davon kriegen, mit Menschen zu spielen, gestreichelt und geknuddelt zu werden. In neuen Umgebungen und mit neuen Menschen ist sie anfänglich jedoch immer noch relativ vorsichtig. Ansonsten hat die Kleine allgemein einen eher ruhigen und entspannten Charakter. Sie kommuniziert aber inzwischen auch gerne mit Menschen mit diversen Katzengeräuschen; fordert mit leisem Miauen etwas Aufmerksamkeit und Streicheleinheiten ein, bedankt sich mit Schnurren, und begrüsst ihre Dosenöffner enthusiastisch mit zirpenden (?) Geräuschen, die sich in menschlicher Sprache nur unzulänglich beschreiben lassen. Katze besuchen / adoptieren Geschichte der Gruppe Calliope's Kitten Calliope wurde zusammen mit ihren Kitten auf einem verlassenen Bauernhof gesichtet. Die aufmerksamen Nachbarn bemerkten die kleine Katzenfamilie und baten uns um Hilfe. Calliope wurde inzwischen durch uns kastriert. Dem Sozialverhalten der Kitten nach zu urteilen, wurden sie wahrscheinlich in der Wildnis geboren und hatten bisher noch keinen direkten Kontakt zu Menschen. Calliope hat mehrere kleine Narben von früheren Verletzungen (kleine Schnittwunde an der rechten hinteren Pfote, punktuelle Wunden am Rücken), welche jedoch inzwischen gut verheilt sind. Wir suchen für die Gruppe neue Zuhause mit Freigang im Grünen mit Katzentür. Die Geschwister werden bevorzugt zusammen (zu zweit oder dritt) vermittelt. Die vier sind derzeit auch noch in der STMZ ausgeschrieben vermittelt Calliope vermittelt Kumo Sahaba vermittelt Yuki

About Sahaba

What life with Sahaba looks like

Sahaba is a puppy/kitten mixed breed cat cat waiting at Katzenhaus-Freunde in Zürich region.

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 Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.

Frequently asked

Adopting Sahaba, answered.

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