Tremolina

European Shorthair · Unknown · Young · 2 years

Tremolina is a sweet and gentle cat with big button eyes and a soft gaze that immediately won my heart. She's initially cautious around strangers, preferring to observe from a distance and hide in a safe spot. But with patience and time, her curiosity shines through. Her weakness for treats makes it easy to gain her trust. Once she realizes no one is trying to harm her, her curiosity grows. It's adorable watching her slowly approach when ignored, taking small steps closer while still being cautious but interested. Tremolina has ataxia, which affects her coordination and causes unsteady movements. However, for her, it's just normal and she adapts well. Importantly, ataxia is not a disease, contagious or painful. Cats with ataxia can live happy, fulfilling lives as long as they have a home that accommodates their needs. For Tremolina, we need a low-barrier environment without high climbing areas. Non-slip surfaces like carpets help her move safely. Bowls, litter boxes, and cozy spots should be easily accessible. Tremolina is looking for people who don't expect her to jump onto their lap right away. She needs people who appreciate small steps forward in her trust journey.

Manche Katzen berühren einen vom ersten Moment an – und Tremolina gehört definitiv dazu. Mit ihren süßen Knopfaugen , ihrem sanften Blick und ihrer ganz besonderen Art hat sie sich sofort in mein Herz geschlichen. Tremolina ist anfangs eine eher vorsichtige Katze . Fremde Menschen betrachtet sie lieber erst einmal aus sicherer Entfernung und zieht sich anfangs gerne in ein Versteck zurück. Doch wer ihr Zeit gibt und ihr mit etwas Geduld begegnet, wird schnell merken, wie neugierig sie eigentlich ist. Ganz besonders hilfreich ist dabei ihre große Schwäche: Schleckpaste . Mit ihr lässt sich Tremolinas Vertrauen Stück für Stück gewinnen. Hat sie erst einmal gemerkt, dass ihr niemand etwas Böses möchte, wird ihre Neugier größer. Besonders süß ist es zu beobachten, wie sie sich langsam nähert, wenn man sie gar nicht beachtet. Dann läuft sie immer wieder ein kleines Stück näher an einem vorbei – ganz vorsichtig, aber voller Interesse . Es ist einfach so schön , ihr dabei zuzusehen, wie sie langsam auftaut . Tremolina hat Ataxie . Das bedeutet, dass ihre Bewegungen unkoordiniert sind und sie wackelig unterwegs ist. Für Tremolina selbst ist das jedoch völlig normal – sie kennt es gar nicht anders und kommt damit wunderbar zurecht . Wichtig zu wissen ist: Ataxie ist keine Krankheit , nicht ansteckend und verursacht keine Schmerzen . Katzen mit Ataxie können ein glückliches, erfülltes und oft genauso langes Leben führen wie jede andere Katze – sie brauchen lediglich ein Zuhause, das auf ihre Bedürfnisse Rücksicht nimmt. Für Tremolina wünschen wir uns deshalb eine barrierearme Umgebung ohne hohe Klettergelegenheiten. Rutschfeste Untergründe, zum Beispiel Teppiche, helfen ihr dabei, sicher unterwegs zu sein. Auch Näpfe, die Katzentoilette und gemütliche Lieblingsplätze sollten für sie leicht erreichbar sein. Tremolina sucht Menschen, die nicht erwarten, dass sie vom ersten Tag auf den Schoß springt. Sie sucht Menschen, die sich über jeden kleinen Fortsch

About Tremolina

What life with Tremolina looks like

Tremolina is a large young adult european shorthair cat waiting at PfotenFreunde Sardinien e.V. 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 Tremolina, answered.

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