Sparkles

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

09/2026 Sparkles, born approx. 2025, neutered, in the shelter since 03/2026 Sparkles is a wonderful young cat. Her eyes look very unique in the photos, as she suffered from glaucoma. Unfortunately, both of her eyes had to be removed in mid-August due to extremely high intraocular pressure. Since she was already completely blind before, the removal of her eyes does not restrict her any more than she was before. She loves people more than anything and enjoys physical contact very much. She is an incredibly sweet and wonderful cat. She also likes other cats very much. She should move into a home with an already existing social cat – alternatively, she would also gladly bring along a suitable female or male cat companion. She should live as an indoor cat; a secured balcony would be welcome. She is currently in Romania and may travel once she has found a home. She travels microchipped and vaccinated (EU pet passport; vaccinations: rabies and basic immunization). Transport (registered with Traces) will be organized and carried out by us, as far as it is legally possible for the destination country. Please note the information on this page:

09/2026 Sparkles, geboren ca. 2025, kastriert, im Shelter seit 03/2026 Sparkles ist eine wundervolle junge Katze. Ihre Augen sehen auf den Bildern sehr einzigartig aus, da sie an einem Glaukom litt. Leider mussten ihr Mitte August aufgrund eines extrem hohen Augeninnendrucks beide Augen entfernt werden. Da sie bereits zuvor völlig blind war, schränkt die Entfernung ihrer Augen sie nicht mehr ein als zuvor. Sie liebt Menschen über alles und genießt Körperkontakt sehr. Sie ist eine unglaublich liebe und wundervolle Katze. Auch andere Katzen mag sie sehr gerne. Sie soll in ein Zuhause mit einer bereits vorhandenen sozialen Katze ziehen – alternativ bringt sie auch gern eine passende Katzenfreundin oder einen Katzenfreund als Gesellschaft mit. Sie soll in Wohnungshaltung leben, gern darf es einen abgesicherten Balkon geben. Befindet sich aktuell in Rumänien und darf ausreisen, wenn sie ein Zuhause gefunden hat. Reist gechipt und geimpft (EU Impfpass; Impfungen: Tollwut und Grundimmunisierung). Der Transport (angemeldet mit Traces) wird von uns, so weit es für das Bestimmungsland rechtlich möglich ist, organisiert und durchgeführt. Bitte beachten Sie die Informationen auf dieser Seite:

About Sparkles

What life with Sparkles looks like

Sparkles is a small young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Hope for Future e.V. in Germany.

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 Sparkles, answered.

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