Vanessa Riley

Mixed Breed · Male · Kitten · 3 months

Ilza Yosifova, born approximately June & July 2026, gender unknown, location Bulgaria, not spayed, FIV test negative, FeLV test negative, no disabilities, compatible with: children unknown, cats yes, dogs unknown, requirements: shared apartment living only, NO outdoor access, balcony or terrace desirable (if available, securing required), Vanessa's story began with a small meow under parked cars near Ilza's workplace. Her brother heard the sounds and told Ilza. Although she was busy that day, Ilza couldn't shake the thought of the little kitten. When a friend came by, Ilza asked her to check on the little one - and indeed, she managed to get Vanessa to safety. Riley was found in a place where our animal rescuer Ilza regularly cares for stray cats. The little cat was sitting alone there and had little chance of survival. Riley was still so young that he had to be bottle-fed. Fortunately, Ilza discovered him in time, so she could take him home and care for him. Riley and Vanessa are a dream team. At Ilza's, the two met and quickly realized they were a perfect match. Riley is a cuddly and playful little cat who has taken his best friend to his heart. Vanessa is now showing what a sweet and cuddly kitten she is. Initially, she was very scared, but she quickly warmed up. Vanessa and enjoy spending time together. A sweet team, where you quickly notice how well they do each other. We wish Riley and Vanessa a loving place where the two can stay together forever. They found each other and simply belong together - that's why they should also experience their next adventures together. Now it's just a matter of pressing paws and waiting for mail.

Tierschützerin: Ilza Yosifova geboren: ca. Juni & Juli 2026 Geschlecht: weiblich / männlich Aufenthaltsort: Bulgarien kastriert: nein FIV-Test: negativ FeLV-Test: negativ Handicaps: keine verträglich mit: Kindern: nicht bekannt Katzen: ja Hunden: nicht bekannt Voraussetzungen: gemeinsame nur Wohnungshaltung, KEIN Freigang Balkon oder Terrasse wünschenswert (sofern vorhanden, ist die Sicherung erforderlich) Vanessas Geschichte begann mit einem kleinen Miauen unter geparkten Autos in der Nähe von Ilzas Arbeitsstelle. Ihr Bruder hatte die Geräusche gehört und Ilza davon erzählt. Obwohl sie an diesem Tag eigentlich alle Hände voll zu tun hatte, ließ sie der Gedanke an das kleine Kätzchen nicht los. Als eine Freundin vorbeikam, bat Ilza sie, nach der Kleinen zu sehen – und tatsächlich gelang es, Vanessa in Sicherheit zu bringen. Riley wurde an einem Ort gefunden, an dem unsere Tierschützerin Ilza regelmäßig streunende Katzen versorgt. Ganz allein saß der kleine Kater dort und hatte ohne Hilfe kaum eine Chance. Denn Riley war noch so jung, dass er mit der Flasche aufgezogen werden musste. Zum Glück entdeckte Ilza ihn rechtzeitig, sodass sie ihn mit nach Hause nehmen und versorgen konnte. Riley und Vanessa sind ein Dreamteam. Bei Ilza haben sich die beiden kennengelernt und schnell gemerkt, dass sie wunderbar zusammenpassen. Riley ist ein verschmuster und verspielter kleiner Kater, der seine beste Freundin sehr ins Herz geschlossen hat. Auch Vanessa zeigt inzwischen, was für ein liebes und verschmustes Katzenmädchen in ihr steckt. Anfangs war sie noch sehr verängstigt, taute aber schnell auf. Vanessa und Riley genießen es, ihre Zeit gemeinsam zu verbringen. Ein süßes Gespann, bei dem man schnell merkt, wie gut sie sich gegenseitig tun. Für Riley und Vanessa wünschen wir uns einen liebevollen Platz, an dem die beiden für immer zusammenbleiben dürfen. Sie haben sich gefunden und gehören einfach zusammen – deshalb sollen sie auch ihre nächsten Abenteuer gemeinsam erleben. Jetzt heißt es für die beiden nur noch: Pfötchen drücken und auf Post warten.

About Vanessa Riley

What life with Vanessa Riley looks like

Vanessa Riley is a small kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Glücksnasen e.V. Tierschutzverein in Germany.

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 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 Vanessa Riley, answered.

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