Samila

European Shorthair · Female · Adult · 4 years

Samila ist eine unserer Hordingkatzen. Sie kam Anfang Juni mit ca. 30 anderen Katzen zu uns. Sie kommt aus der reinen Wohnungshaltung und hat dort wahrscheinlich wenig erlebt und Menschenkontakt genossen. Deshalb ist sie hier auch noch sehr schüchtern. Ob dies mit der Zeit besser wird können wir leider nicht sagen. Allerdings zeigt sie bereits kleine Annäherungsversuche und Interesse. Für Samila suchen wir ein Zuhause in Wohnungshaltung. Hier vor Ort versteht sie sich sehr gut mit Lilo, wir würden uns freuen, wenn beide zusammen bleiben dürfen.

About Samila

What life with Samila looks like

Samila is an adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Würzburg in Würzburg.

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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Samila, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Samila?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Würzburg handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Samila on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Samila if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Würzburg 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Samila 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 Samila 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 Würzburg early rather than rehoming privately; they know Samila 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.
