Tilda

European Shorthair · Unknown · Kitten · 3 months

Tilda is a friendly and affectionate female cat once she has built trust with her family or caregiver. She approaches strangers cautiously and wants to have enough time to settle in her new home. If you give her patience, Tilda will gradually build a bond with her family and reward them with initial approaches and petting. The cat is well-suited to living with other cats and is accustomed to cohabitation, which is why she can also be given to a second cat. Tilda would be very happy with a loving family.

DE·Show original

Tilda erweist sich als freundliche und liebevolle Katzendame, sobald sie Vertrauen zu ihrer Familie oder Bezugsperson aufgebaut hat. Sie tritt fremden Menschen zurückhaltend entgegen und möchte bei ihrer Ankunft im neuen Zuhause ausreichend Zeit zur Eingewöhnung bekommen. Schenkt man ihr Geduld, baut Tilda schrittweise eine Bindung zu ihrer Familie auf und belohnt diese dann mit ersten Annäherungen und Streicheleinheiten. Die Kätzin ist mit Artgenossen gut verträglich und an das Zusammenleben gewöhnt, weshalb sie auch zu einer Zweitkatze vergeben werden kann. Tilda würde sich über eine liebevolle Familie sehr freuen.

About Tilda

What life with Tilda looks like

Tilda is a puppy/kitten european shorthair cat waiting at Sonnenhof Eisenstadt (Sonnentiere) in Austria.

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 Austria

Austrian shelters follow the federal Tierschutzgesetz framework: adopters sign a Schutzvertrag (protection contract) committing to the animal's welfare. Spay/neuter, microchip, and vaccinations are included; fees typically range €150–€350.

Frequently asked

Adopting Tilda, answered.

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