Stella

Mixed Breed · Unknown

An life without a cat is possible, but somewhat meaningless… (freely after Loriot) Our Stella is a charming little cat girl who loves coziness and quiet sounds. She’s not the “hoppla now come here” kind of paw, but she exudes her loving, gentle charm often only after the second try. Probably not without reason – but her little heart is opening more and more each day… One just has to give the Sweetie some time to settle in. Stella would like to be introduced to lovely people who have a cat-hand, who don’t push her too much at the beginning – but still might have a spot in the bed for her. Our Pretty one is familiar with apartment living, and a secure balcony or terrace would be wonderful, as she likes to observe nature. And the children in the new household should already have outgrown their energetic toddler shoes.

Ein Leben ohne Katze ist möglich, aber etwas sinnlos … (frei nach Loriot) Unsere Stella ist ein bezauberndes Katzenmädchen, das Gemütlichkeit und leise Töne liebt. Sie ist nicht das „hoppla jetzt komm ich“ Pfötchen, sondern versprüht ihren liebevollen, sanftmütigen Charme oft erst im zweiten Anlauf. Wahrscheinlich nicht ohne Grund – aber das kleine Herz öffnet sich von Tag zu Tag mehr… Man muss der Süßen eben etwas Zeit geben, um anzukommen. Stella würde ihr Körbchen gerne zu lieben Menschen stellen, die ein Katzen-Händchen haben, sie anfänglich nicht zu sehr bedrängen – aber dennoch evtl. ein Plätzchen im Bett für sie hätten. Unsere Hübsche ist mit Wohnungshaltung vertraut, ein gesicherter Balkon/Terrasse wären wunderbar, da sie gerne die Natur beobachtet und Kinder im neuen Haushalt sollten bereits den quirligen Kleinkinderschuhen entschlüpft sein.

About Stella

What life with Stella looks like

Stella is a small adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierhilfe Franken e.V. in Lauf.

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. 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 Stella, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Stella?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierhilfe Franken e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Stella on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Stella if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierhilfe Franken 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Stella 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 Stella 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 Tierhilfe Franken e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Stella 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.
