Steffi

European Shorthair · Female · Kitten · 5 months

Steffi ist eine kleine Katzendame, die momentan noch sehr schüchtern ist. Es wird von Tag zu Tag besser, aber sie braucht Zeit und Geduld. Aktuell orientiert sie sich sehr stark an ihrem Bruder Didi. Wenn im Tierheim Ruhe einkehrt trauen sich die beiden auch raus und spielen zusammen. Für das Geschwisterpaar suchen wir ein ruhiges Zuhause, wo sie später die Möglichkeit auf Freigang haben.

About Steffi

What life with Steffi looks like

Steffi is a puppy/kitten european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Würzburg in Würzburg.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇩🇪Adopting from Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.

Frequently asked

Adopting Steffi, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Steffi?
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 Steffi on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Steffi 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Steffi 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 Steffi 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 Steffi 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.
