Trixi

Mixed Breed · Female

Special Features: FIP Fighter Hello, wonderful people! My name is Trixi—such a lovely name, isn’t it? My foster mom probably would have called me Lucky, because I survived only thanks to a good dose of luck! But she doesn’t want to constantly remind me of my past, and I actually really like the name Trixi, too. Like so many street cats, I was often chased by dogs. On that particular day, a high fence seemed like my salvation. The fence was huge—and so was my will to live. What I didn’t realize, though, was that there were also dogs living on the other side of the fence, on the property itself. The dogs barked so loudly that Nadia, who lives just a few houses down, noticed them. She rescued me from this hopeless situation, pulled me off the fence, and took me home with her. After Nadia took me in, I suddenly developed FIP—but thankfully, the treatment worked, and I’m feeling better than ever! I’ve also passed the observation period, so nothing stands in the way of my move now. I really love people and cuddle a lot; I also play with other cats, and right now I have access to a secure garden, which I really appreciate. Now I’m looking for a forever home. In my future forever home, I’ll definitely need companionship from another furry friend. If you don’t yet have a cat, I’d be happy to bring one of my friends along—cats who currently live with me at Nadia’s and are also looking for their own homes. After a positive pre-check and signing a protection contract, I could soon be on my way to you. When I travel to you, I’ll be microchipped, vaccinated (against feline herpesvirus, feline panleukopenia, and rabies), dewormed, and treated against parasites. Plus, I’ve already been neutered.

Besonderheiten: FIP-Fighter Hallo ihr tollen Menschen, ich höre auf den wundervollen Namen Trixi. Meine Pflegemama hätte mich vermutlich Lucky genannt, denn ich habe nur durch eine ordentliche Portion Glück überlebt! Aber sie möchte mich nicht immer an meine Vergangenheit erinnern und ich finde den Namen Trixi auch ganz toll. Wie so viele Katzen auf der Straße wurde ich oft von Hunden gejagt. An diesem einen Tag war ein hoher Zaun meine vermeintliche Rettung. Der Zaun war riesig, ebenso mein Lebenswille. Ich wusste jedoch nicht, dass auf dem Grundstück auf der anderen Zaunseite ebenfalls Hunde lebten. Die Hunde bellten so laut, dass Nadia, die ein paar Häuser weiter wohnt, darauf aufmerksam wurde. Sie rettete mich aus dieser aussichtlosen Situation, holte mich vom Zaun und nahm mich mit zu sich. Nachdem mich Nadia bei sich aufnahm bin ich plötzlich an FiP erkrankt, doch zum Glück hat die Therapie angeschlagen, mir geht es so gut wie nie! Ich bin auch aus der Beobachtungsphase heraus, also steht meinem Umzug nichts mehr im Wege. Ich mag Menschen sehr gern und kuschle viel, außerdem spiele ich mit Artgenossen und habe derzeit einen gesicherten Garten zur Verfügung was ich auch sehr schätze. Nun suche ich ein Zuhause. In meinem künftigen Für-Immer-Zuhause brauche ich auf jeden Fall Gesellschaft auf vier Pfoten. Wenn noch keine Katze bei dir wohnt, bringe ich sehr gerne eine meiner Freunde mit, die mit mir gemeinsam bei Nadia leben und ebenfalls ihr Zuhause suchen. Nach positiver Vorkontrolle und Schutzvertrag kann ich mich schon bald auf die Reise zu dir machen. Wenn ich ausreisen, bin ich gechipt, geimpft (Katzenschnupfen, Katzenseuche und Tollwut), entwurmt und gegen Parasiten behandelt. Außerdem bin ich bereits kastriert.

About Trixi

What life with Trixi looks like

Trixi is an extra-large adult mixed breed cat waiting at Seelenkatzen e.V. in Barsinghausen.

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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Trixi, answered.

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