Adopt Shea

Female · Senior · 12 years

Shea came to us with Sky when the owner passed away. Shea is a very outgoing and cuddly cat. As is typical for her age, she sleeps a lot and is very quiet. The cat's health has some issues and she needs daily medication. Shea is only conditionally compatible with other cats and would prefer to be a singleton princess in her new home or, alternatively, move in with Sky, where the two would rather live past each other. Shea is looking for a home as a house cat where she can enjoy her golden years with lots of cuddles. This cat is to be kept indoors only.

Shea kam gemeinsam mit Sky zu uns, da der Halter verstorben ist. Shea ist eine sehr aufgeschlossene und verschmuste Katze. Alterstypisch schläft sie viel und ist sehr ruhig. Die Katzenomi bringt einige gesundheitliche Baustellen mit und benötigt täglich Medikamente. Mit Katzen ist Shea nur bedingt verträglich und möchte Einzelprinzessin im neuen Zuhause sein oder alternativ gemeinsam mit Sky ausziehen, wobei die beiden eher aneinander vorbei Leben. Shea sucht ein Zuhause als Wohnungskatze in dem sie ihren Lebensabend mit vielen Streicheleinheiten genießen darf.

About Shea

What life with Shea looks like

Shea is a senior cat waiting at BMT Tierheim Arche Noah Stuhr in Germany.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇩🇪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 Shea, answered.

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