Enja

Mixed Breed Cat · Female · Adult · 4 years

Aufgrund seines Alter konnte sich Enjas früherer Besitzer leider nicht mehr um sie kümmern. So fand die liebe Katzendame den Weg zu uns ins Tierheim Pfötli. Enja ist eine ausgesprochen liebe und verspielte Katze, die Menschen sehr zugewandt ist und es liebt, gestreichelt zu werden. Sie zeigt sehr gut, wenn es für sie genug war, ohne direkt die Krallen auszufahren. Das Handling findet sie aber eher überflüssig, dabei kann sie auch manchmal zubeissen. Bei Enjas tierärztlicher Untersuchung wurde sie auch gleich kastriert. Sie ist gesund und munter, es zeigte sich aber eine kleine Flüssigkeitsansammlung an der Gebärmutter, was aktuell keine Behandlung erfordert. Eine tierärztliche Kontrolle ist erst dann notwendig, wenn auffälliger vaginaler Ausfluss auftreten sollte. Bei Interesse und für weitere Fragen steht Ihnen unser Sekretariats-Team gerne unter 00 zur Verfügung. Bei Interesse und für weitere Fragen steht Ihnen unser Sekretariats-Team gerne zur Verfügung.

About Enja

What life with Enja looks like

Enja is an adult mixed breed cat cat waiting at Tierheim Pfötli und Tierrettung in Switzerland.

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 Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.

Frequently asked

Adopting Enja, answered.

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