Susanne

European Shorthair · Unknown · Adult · 6 years

Susanne finds the situation at the animal shelter not thrilling and lets us know that. She hides a lot and growls immediately as soon as she spots someone. If she feels too cornered, she may also use her claws. We are looking for a home in apartment living for all five. They need either at least one other companion or the possibility of later secure outdoor access.

Susanne findet die Sitution im Tierheim nicht prickelnd und lässt uns das auch spüren. Sie versteckt sich viel und faucht sofort, sobald sie jemanden entdeckt. Falls sie sich zu bedrängst fühlt, kann es auch sein, dass sie ihre Krallen einsetzt. Wir suchen für alle fünf ein Zuhause in Wohnungshaltung. Sie brauchen entweder mindestens einen weiteren Artgenossen oder die Möglichkeit zu späterem gesicherten Freigang.

About Susanne

What life with Susanne looks like

Susanne is a adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Quellenhof Passbrunn 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. 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 Susanne, answered.

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