How do I contact the shelter about Shiva?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Ein Herz für Streuner e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Shiva on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Shiva if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Ein Herz für Streuner 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 Shiva 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 Shiva 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 Ein Herz für Streuner e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Shiva 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.

Shiva

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 5 years

adoption requirements adoption process Now request this animal! adoption requirements adoption process Now request this cat! The young Shiva is eagerly waiting for a new home where she can finally arrive. At first, she is still a bit shy and needs time to settle in, but once she gains trust, she also enjoys being stroked. However, one should not be too intrusive during this process. Toward other cats, Shiva is very friendly and open. She requires the company of her fellow animals, so we do not want to place her in single housing. If there is no other cat waiting for her in her new home, she would gladly take one of her friends from the foster home. Due to her shy nature, Shiva is a pure indoor cat. However, she would still be happy with a cat-safe netted balcony where she can observe her surroundings.

Die junge Shiva wartet sehnsüchtig auf ein neues Zuhause, in dem sie endlich ankommen kann. Anfangs ist sie zwar noch etwas schüchtern und braucht ihre Zeit zum Eingewöhnen, aber sobald sie Vertrauen gefasst hat, lässt sie sich auch gerne mal streicheln. Allerdings sollte man dabei nicht zu aufdringlich sein. Anderen Katzen gegenüber ist Shiva sehr freundlich und aufgeschlossen. Sie benötigt auf jeden Fall die Nähe zu ihren Artgenossen, daher möchten wir sie nicht in Einzelhaltung vermitteln. Falls in ihrem neuen Zuhause noch keine weitere Katze auf sie wartet, nimmt sie gerne einen ihrer Freunde aus der Pflegestelle mit. Aufgrund ihrer schüchternen Art ist Shiva eine reine Wohnungskatze. Über einen vernetzten Balkon, auf dem sie ihre Umgebung beobachten kann, freut sie sich aber bestimmt dennoch. Dies ist allerdings keine Voraussetzung für die
