Valenzia

European Shorthair · Unknown

Valenzia is initially somewhat reserved, but warms up quickly once she has gained trust. Then she shows herself to be a real snuggle cat who greatly enjoys the proximity to her humans. Valenzia gets along well with other cats, especially if she already knows them. Due to a cloudy eye - probably as a result of an earlier injury - her vision is somewhat limited. Therefore, we are looking for a loving home suitable for apartment living, where she can feel safe and secure. Incidentally, Valenzia has a special affection for everything that is fluffy - soft blankets and cozy resting places are at the top of her list. Whoever gives Valenzia time to adjust will be rewarded with a cuddly and affectionate companion.

DE·Show original

Valenzia ist anfangs etwas zurückhaltend, taut aber schnell auf, sobald sie Vertrauen gefasst hat. Dann zeigt sie sich als echte Schmusekatze, die die Nähe zu ihren Menschen sehr genießt. Mit anderen Katzen kommt Valenzia gut zurecht, besonders wenn sie diese bereits kennt. Aufgrund eines getrübten Auges – vermutlich infolge einer früheren Verletzung – ist ihre Sicht etwas eingeschränkt. Daher wünschen wir uns für sie ein liebevolles Zuhause in reiner Wohnungshaltung, in dem sie sich sicher und geborgen fühlen kann. Ein ganz besonderes Herz hat Valenzia übrigens für alles, was flauschig ist – weiche Decken und kuschelige Liegeplätze stehen bei ihr ganz hoch im Kurs. Wer Valenzia Zeit zum Ankommen schenkt, wird mit einer verschmusten und liebevollen Begleiterin belohnt. 🐱💕

About Valenzia

What life with Valenzia looks like

Valenzia is an adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Northeim.

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 Valenzia, answered.

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