How do I contact the shelter about Sissi?

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

Can I adopt Sissi if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzverein Wolfsberg 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 Sissi 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 Sissi 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 Wolfsberg early rather than rehoming privately; they know Sissi 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.

Sissi

European Shorthair · Female · Kitten

Sissi is a young female cat who came to the shelter with her four siblings from a hoarder's household. Our previous life was not always easy, but here we were allowed to settle down, were lovingly cared for and received proper medical attention. I am a shy cat, especially around strangers. I am initially cautious and a bit fearful. I just need some time to understand that I am safe and can trust you. If you give me this time and treat me gently, you will soon notice that behind my shy nature is a very sweet little cat. As soon as I gain trust, I let myself be petted and can really enjoy the loving caresses. For my new home, I am looking for people with a bit of patience and empathy who do not pressure me and allow me to settle in at my own pace. With a little time and a lot of love, I will definitely become bolder and show how much trust is actually in me. Maybe you are the person who can help me forget my initial fear and finally feel completely safe?

🐾 Hallo, ich bin Sissi. Gemeinsam mit meinen vier Geschwistern kam ich aus einem Messie-Haushalt ins Tierheim. Unser bisheriges Leben war nicht immer einfach, doch hier durften wir erst einmal in Ruhe ankommen, wurden liebevoll versorgt und gesund gepflegt. ❤️ Ich bin eine junge Katzendame und gehöre eher zu den schüchternen unter uns Geschwistern. Besonders bei fremden Menschen bin ich anfangs noch vorsichtig und ein wenig ängstlich. Ich brauche einfach etwas Zeit, um zu verstehen, dass ich in Sicherheit bin und dir vertrauen kann. Wenn du mir diese Zeit gibst und behutsam mit mir umgehst, wirst du aber schnell merken, dass hinter meiner schüchternen Art eine ganz liebe kleine Katzendame steckt. 🥺 Sobald ich Vertrauen gefasst habe, lasse ich mich streicheln und kann die liebevollen Streicheleinheiten auch richtig genießen. ❤️ Für mein neues Zuhause wünsche ich mir deshalb Menschen mit etwas Geduld und Einfühlungsvermögen, die mich nicht bedrängen und mir erlauben, in meinem eigenen Tempo anzukommen. Mit ein bisschen Zeit und ganz viel Liebe werde ich bestimmt immer mutiger und kann zeigen, wie viel Vertrauen eigentlich in mir steckt. Vielleicht bist genau du der Mensch, bei dem ich meine anfängliche Angst vergessen und mich endlich rundum sicher fühlen darf? 🐾❤️ Deine Sissi

About Sissi

What life with Sissi looks like

Sissi is a puppy/kitten european shorthair cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Wolfsberg in Wolfsberg.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇦🇹Adopting from Austria

Austrian shelters follow the federal Tierschutzgesetz framework: adopters sign a Schutzvertrag (protection contract) committing to the animal's welfare. Spay/neuter, microchip, and vaccinations are included; fees typically range €150–€350.
