Stella

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Stella and Sissy, Balinese cats, born around early 2025. Both cats come from an animal hoarding case involving more than 50 cats. They were not well treated there, which is why they are somewhat easily startled. On the other hand, they have a great deal of affection to make up for and to give. Both are very agile, and like typical Balinese, they enjoy climbing and jumping. For this reason, the new home should not have too much decor. Since Balinese have no undercoat, they do not need to be brushed regularly. Both are open to other cats; there were also large dogs in the hoarding household. The new home should have experience with cats. We do not want to place them with children, as they react anxiously to loud noises and quick movements. Both cats are neutered, fully vaccinated, and tested negative for infectious diseases.

Stella und Sissy, Balinesen-Katzen, geboren ca. Anfang 2025. Beide Katzen stammen aus einem Animal Hoarding Fall mit über 50 Katzen. Sie wurden dort nicht gut behandelt, weshalb sie etwas schreckhaft sind. Andererseits haben sie aber sehr viel Zuneigung und Liebe nachzuholen und zu geben. Beide sind sehr agil, rassetypisch klettern und springen sie gerne. Deshalb sollte im neuen Zuhause nicht allzu viel Deko vorhanden sein. Da Balinesen kein Unterfell haben, brauchen sie nicht regelmäßig gebürstet zu werden.Beide sind anderen Katzen gegenüber aufgeschlossen, in dem Messie-Haushalt waren auch große Hunde vorhanden.Im neuen Zuhause sollte Katzenerfahrung vorhanden sein. Zu Kindern möchten wir sie nicht vermitteln, da sie auf laute Geräusche und schnelle Bewegungen ängstlich reagieren.Beide Katzen sind kastriert, durchgeimpft und negativ auf Infektionskrankheiten getestet

About Stella

What life with Stella looks like

Stella is a large young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Katzenhilfe Greven in Greven.

A young 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. Many dogs and cats leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport, but this varies by shelter, so confirm what is included with the shelter.

Frequently asked

Adopting Stella, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Stella?: Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. Katzenhilfe Greven handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Stella on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Stella if I live in another country?: Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask Katzenhilfe Greven whether they will for Stella, what they require (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Stella already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: Katzenhilfe Greven lists Stella as vaccinated and spayed. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by Katzenhilfe Greven, so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Stella isn't the right fit?: Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask Katzenhilfe Greven about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Stella 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.
