Stella

European Shorthair · Female

Hallo, ich bin Stella. Zusammen mit meinen beiden Geschwistern wurde ich gefunden und ins Tierheim gebracht. Wir waren damals noch so klein, dass wir noch unser Fläschchen brauchten. Deshalb durften wir auf eine liebevolle Pflegestelle ziehen, wo wir versorgt wurden und uns richtig toll entwickelt haben. Ich bin von uns dreien eher die Ruhige. Ich schaue mir vieles erst einmal an und halte mich lieber ein kleines bisschen zurück, während meine Geschwister oft schon mittendrin sind. Spielen finde ich natürlich trotzdem großartig. Ich kann mich richtig schön beschäftigen, toben und all die Dinge entdecken, die für so ein kleines Katzenkind spannend sind – ich mache das nur eben etwas ruhiger und vorsichtiger als die anderen beiden. Ich bin eine ganz liebe kleine Maus, die nicht unbedingt vorneweg laufen muss. Ich brauche einfach diesen kleinen Moment, um mich auf Neues einzulassen und dann darf ich zeigen, was alles in mir steckt. Nun wünsche ich mir ein Zuhause mit einem ungefähr gleichaltrigen Katzenfreund an meiner Seite, mit dem ich spielen, groß werden und gemeinsam die Welt entdecken kann. Vielleicht bist du der Mensch, der mir zeigt, wie schön mein nächstes großes Abenteuer werden kann?

About Stella

What life with Stella looks like

Stella is a large adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Montabaur in Montabaur.

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. Tierheim Montabaur 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 — Tierheim Montabaur 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 Tierheim Montabaur 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.
