Tessa &#8211

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Young · 2 years

Our shy Tessa came to us as a found cat along with her daughter. Her daughter has already moved into a new home. Tessa is missing a few teeth, although she is only about 2 years old. She had pneumonia and injured one of her claws, but she has overcome all of that and is now waiting for a beautiful, new home where she can express her personality. Tessa needs time, calmness, and a gentle approach. A quiet home with a secure retreat and loving, patient trusted people would help her gain trust. If you would like to meet our Tessa, you are welcome to visit us at the animal shelter and please bring time and patience for her 😻 Our visiting and matching times are on Saturdays and Sundays from 14:00 to 17:00.

Unsere schüchterne Tessa kam als Fundkatze gemeinsam mit ihrer Tochter zu uns. Ihre Tochter konnte bereits in ein neues Zuhause umziehen. Tessa fehlen schon ein paar Zähne, obwohl sie erst ca. 2 Jahre alt ist. Sie hatte eine Lungenentzündung und sich eine Kralle ausgerissen. Das hat sie aber alles gut hinter sich gelassen und wartet nun auf ein schönes, neues Zuhause, im dem sie ihre Persönlichkeit entfalten kann. Tessa braucht Zeit, Ruhe und eine behutsame Annäherung. Ein ruhiges Zuhause mit sicherem Rückzugsort und liebevollen, geduldigen Bezugspersonen würde ihr helfen, Vertrauen zu fassen. Wenn Sie unsere Tessa kennenlernen wollen, dürfen Sie sie gerne bei uns im Tierheim besuchen und bringen bitte Zeit und Geduld für sie mit 😻 Unsere Besuchs- und Vermittlungszeiten sind jeweils am Samstag und Sonntag von 14:00 bis 17:00 Uhr.

About Tessa &#8211

What life with Tessa &#8211 looks like

Tessa &#8211 is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Landkreis Erding e.V. in Bockhorn.

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 Tessa &#8211, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Tessa &#8211?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein Landkreis Erding e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Tessa &#8211 on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Tessa &#8211 if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzverein Landkreis Erding 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 Tessa &#8211 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 Tessa &#8211 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 Tierschutzverein Landkreis Erding e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Tessa &#8211 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.
