How do I contact the shelter about Sinta?

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

Can I adopt Sinta if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Hannover 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 Sinta 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 Sinta 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 Hannover early rather than rehoming privately; they know Sinta 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.

Adopt Sinta

Male · 2 years

Sinta did not have a beautiful start in life—he was abandoned in a transport box and left to fend for himself. Now, we wish for him to find a truly wonderful home where he can arrive and be loved. Character-wise, he is a real good mood tomcat: playful, funny, curious, and friendly and attentive to people as long as they don’t want anything from him. If, however, something doesn’t suit him or it gets too much for him, he shows it clearly—sometimes he might give a swipe. He is thus a tomcat with personality who seeks people who understand cats and respect his boundaries. Other cats and even dogs definitely do not belong among his friends. He does not want to share his people and his home and is therefore looking for a place as a solo prince. Additionally, for him, freedom is important so that he can let off steam, explore the world, and simply be a tomcat. We are looking for a home for Sinta with cat-experienced people or a family with larger, understanding children in a quiet location with the possibility of freedom. Health precautions: What vaccinations are necessary, and what can I do to ensure my cat has a long and healthy life? You can get an initial overview in this video. Nutrition tips: Watch this video if you want to learn more about the right nutrition for your cats. The video is meant to summarize the most important information. We are of course available for further information. This cat needs outdoor access.

Sinta hat keinen schönen Start ins Leben gehabt – er wurde in einer Transportkiste ausgesetzt und einfach sich selbst überlassen. Umso mehr wünschen wir uns jetzt ein richtig tolles Zuhause für ihn, in dem er ankommen darf und geliebt wird. Charakterlich ist er ein echter Gute-Laune-Kater: verspielt, lustig, neugierig und Menschen gegenüber freundlich und zugewandt, solange man nichts von ihm möchte. Wenn ihm allerdings etwas nicht passt oder es ihm zu viel wird, zeigt er das auch deutlich – dann kann es schon mal passieren, dass man eine gewischt bekommt. Er ist also ein Kater mit Persönlichkeit, der Menschen sucht, die Katzen verstehen und seine Grenzen respektieren. Andere Katzen und auch Hunde gehören definitiv nicht zu seinen Freunden. Er möchte seine Menschen und sein Zuhause nicht teilen und sucht daher einen Platz als Einzelprinz. Wichtig für ihn ist außerdem Freigang, damit er sich auspowern, die Welt erkunden und einfach Kater sein darf. Für Sinta suchen wir ein Zuhause bei katzenerfahrenen Menschen oder einer Familie mit größeren, verständigen Kindern, in ruhiger Lage mit der Möglichkeit des Freigangs. Gesundheitsvorsorge: Welche Impfungen sind notwendig und was kann ich tun, um meiner Katze ein langes und gesundes Leben zu ermöglichen? In diesem Video erhalten Sie einen ersten Überblick. Ernährungstipps: Schauen Sie sich dieses Video an, wenn Sie mehr über die richtige Ernährung Ihrer Katzen erfahren möchten. Das Video soll lediglich die wichtigsten Informationen zusammenfassen. Wir stehen Ihnen natürlich für weitere Informationen zur Verfügung. Infos zur

About Sinta

What life with Sinta looks like

Sinta is a medium-sized adult cat waiting at Tierheim Hannover in Hannover.

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.

Note from the shelter: Requires outdoor access, needs to be only pet in household

🇩🇪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.
