Simba

Mixed Breed · Female

Simba kam aus einer reinen Wohnungshaltung zu uns. Friedlich lebte sie mit ihrer Schwester 11 Jahre zusammen und konnte als richtige Schmusekatze das Leben genießen. Nachdem sich allerdings die Lebenssituation der Menschen in der Wohnung geändert hatte, bekamen sich die Katzenschwestern so stark in die Haare, das der Familie nichts anderes übrig blieb, die Katzen zu trennen. Für Simba war nun alles neu, alles „Gewohnte“ war nun weg und da sie nie anderes kennen gelernt hat, viel ihr der Einzug ins Tierheim nicht leicht und sie war sehr misstrauisch. Heute können wir sagen, Simba akzeptiert ihre zwei weiblichen Mitbewohnerinnen und kommt gern bei den Menschen zum kuscheln. Da Simba den Freigang nicht kennt, können wir uns hier eine reine Wohnungshaltung vorstellen, ist aber nicht Bedingung. Auch die

About Simba

What life with Simba looks like

Simba is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Potsdam in Potsdam.

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 Simba, answered.

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