Adopt Selma

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Selma, a tricolor Joycat, estimated to be around 7 years old, neutered, FIV and leukemia tested negative, microchipped and vaccinated, is looking for a lovely home as a solo princess. She is very people-oriented, loves to lie on the sofa and be petted, and enjoys playing. Selma will be rehomed in an apartment suitable for living, but a cat-safe netted balcony is an absolute must. A quiet household without other pets and without small children is sought, preferably with older people. During a blood test, an elevated thyroid value was found. For this, she takes a medication that she takes without any problems. Who would like to visit Selma and see for themselves that she is a very lovable cat? Please arrange a visit at or (Pflegeplatz). This cat is to be kept indoors only.

Sie ist sehr menschbezogen, liebt es, auf dem Sofa zu liegen und gestreichelt zu werden, und spielt gerne.

Dafür bekommt sie ein Medikament, welches sie ohne Probleme nimmt. Wer möchte Selma besuchen und sich davon überzeugen, dass sie eine sehr liebenswerte Katze ist?

About Selma

What life with Selma looks like

Selma is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Schwetzingen und Umgebung e.V. in Germany.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Selma, answered.

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