Mixed Breed · Unknown · Kitten · 4 months

Noch ganz schüchtern schaut die kleine Saphir in die Kamera und traut uns Menschen noch nicht ganz.Die Ende Juli 2026 geborene Saphir kam zusammen mit ihren 3 Geschwistern zu uns, nachdem ihre Mama überfahren wurde. Sie wurde in Freiheit geboren und ist deshalb noch vorsichtig gegenüber uns Menschen. Streicheleinheiten findet sie inzwischen aber schon angenehm. Saphir hatte starken Flohbefall und einen Schnupfen, welchen inzwischen fast auskuriert ist. Sollten Sie die hübsche Saphir kennenlernen wollen, machen Sie bitte einen Termin mit uns aus.

About Saphir

What life with Saphir looks like

Saphir is a kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Selb und Umgebung in Selb.

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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Saphir, answered.

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