Adopt Skadi

Female · Young · 1 year

Skadi and Runa were very shy at first. The two have since blossomed into little snugglers at their foster home, enjoy the company of other cats, and get along well with dogs. They can be rehomed either with outdoor access or in a large apartment with a secure balcony. Small children should not be in the new home.

Skadi und Runa waren anfangs sehr schüchtern. Die Beiden haben sich mittlerweile am Pflegeplatz zu kleinen Schmusern entwickelt, mögen andere Katzen und kommen auch mit Hunden gut klar. Sie können entweder mit Freigang oder auchin eine große Wohnung mit gesichertem Balkon vermittelt werden. Kleine Kinder sollten nicht im neuen Zuhause sein.

About Skadi

What life with Skadi looks like

Skadi is a large young adult cat waiting at Tierheim Linz in Linz.

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 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Skadi, answered.

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