Vanilla - EKH

European Shorthair · Female · Kitten

Born: unknown at Vanilla - EKH animal shelter since: 30.05.2026 female Valerio, Vito, and Vanilla suddenly appeared together with their finders and have not gone away since. Unfortunately, no one knew the three either. Upon their arrival, they were all extremely matted and had many ticks. After the parasit treatment and successful vaccination, they were allowed to move into the cattery. Vanilla is the most anxious of the trio. We have not been able to handle her properly yet. She unfortunately immediately goes into an attack or flight position. Since she has been in the cattery, however, she is much more relaxed. We think that an outdoor enclosure might be good for her where she can decide how close she comes to us. So far, there have been no problems with the other cats. We are looking for a new home for Vanilla with a later secure release. Your new people should have a lot of understanding for her fear. A friendly second cat could perhaps help her to lose her shyness. Maybe an "outwilder" place could also be something for Vanilla. To protect the animals being placed and to cover costs, we charge an adoption fee per animal.

Geboren: unbekannt im Tierheim seit: 30.05.2026 weiblich Valerio, Vito und Vanilla sind plötzlich bei ihren Findern gemeinsam aufgetaucht und nicht mehr gegangen. Leider kannte die drei auch niemand. Bei ihrer Ankunft waren alle extrem verfloht und hatten viele Zecken. Nach der Parasitenbehandlung und erfolgter Impfung durften sie ins Katzenhaus umziehen. Vanilla ist die Ängstlichste vom Trio. Wir konnten Sie bis jetzt noch nicht richtig anfassen. Sie geht leider sofort in Angriffs-, oder Fluchtstellung. Seit sie im Katzenhaus ist, ist sie aber wesentlich entspannter. Wir denken, dass ihr das Außengehege gut tut wo sie selbst entscheiden kann, wie nah sie uns kommt. Mit den anderen Katzen gibt es bis jetzt keine Probleme. Wir suchen für Vanilla ein neues Zuhause mit späterem sicheren Freigang. Ihre neuen Menschen sollten viel Verständnis für ihre Angst haben. Eine zutrauliche Zweitkatze könnte ihr vielleicht helfen, ihre Scheu abzulegen. Evtl. könnte auch ein "Auswilderungsplatz" etwas für Vanilla sein.

About Vanilla - EKH

What life with Vanilla - EKH looks like

Vanilla - EKH is a puppy/kitten european shorthair cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Dingolfing-Landau e.V. / Tierheim Quellenhof Passbrunn in Dingolfing.

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. 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 Vanilla - EKH, answered.

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