Soda

Mixed Breed Cat · Female · Adult · 9 years

Our two furry friends Soda and Campari came to our shelter because they had to leave their home due to an allergy of their former owners. Now the two are looking for a new place to call home. At first, Soda and Campari are a bit reserved and prefer to observe from a distance. But those who take the time to approach them calmly will quickly realize that behind their shy exterior are two real cuddly tigers! Once they have gained trust, they enjoy the petting to the fullest and love to be pampered. We therefore wish them a loving home with patient people who give them the time they need to settle in at their own pace. With a little peace, understanding and of course lots of petting, the two will surely become more and more outgoing. What is still missing for their big cat happiness? A cozy home in a quiet, rural and traffic-free environment, where Soda and Campari can go on exciting discovery tours outside and explore the world on their own paws after a proper settling-in period.

Unsere beiden Samtpfoten Soda und Campari kamen zu uns ins Tierheim, da sie aufgrund einer Allergie ihrer ehemaligen Besitzer leider ihr Zuhause verlassen mussten. Nun sind die beiden auf der Suche nach einem neuen Plätzchen. Anfangs zeigen sich Soda und Campari noch etwas zurückhaltend und beobachten das Geschehen lieber aus leichter Entfernung. Doch wer sich etwas Zeit nimmt und sich den beiden in Ruhe nähert, wird schnell merken, dass hinter der schüchternen Fassade zwei richtige Schmusetiger stecken! Haben sie erst einmal Vertrauen gefasst, geniessen sie die Streicheleinheiten in vollen Zügen und lassen sich gerne verwöhnen. Für die beiden wünschen wir uns deshalb ein liebevolles Zuhause bei geduldigen Menschen, die ihnen die nötige Zeit geben, um in ihrem eigenen Tempo anzukommen. Mit etwas Ruhe, Verständnis und natürlich ganz vielen Streicheleinheiten werden die beiden bestimmt immer mehr aus sich herauskommen. Was jetzt noch zum grossen Katzenglück fehlt? Ein gemütliches Zuhause in einer ruhigen, ländlichen und verkehrsarmen Umgebung, wo Soda und Campari nach einer angemessenen Eingewöhnungszeit auch draussen auf spannende Entdeckungstouren gehen und die Welt auf eigenen Pfoten erkunden dürfen.

About Soda

What life with Soda looks like

Soda is an adult mixed breed cat cat waiting at Zürcher Tierschutz in Zürich.

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 Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.

Frequently asked

Adopting Soda, answered.

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