Adopt Velma

Mixed Breed Cat · Female

Description Our animal welfare workers report: The pitch-black velvet paws of Daphne and Velma (both girls) and their brothers Shaggy and Fred were found motherless on the street at only two months old. Vulnerable and lost – but thankfully, they were discovered in time. Velma shows herself to be loving, cuddly, and friendly to everyone. Now, she dreams of finding a warm dog bed and a loving home where she can grow up safe and secure. Could one of these velvet paws capture your heart – or even two of them together enrich your home? Who will open their door to the little wonders on four legs? Update13.01.2026 new videos09.12.2025 new photos, new video13.09.2025 new videos The cat presented here comes from an animal shelter that houses many other animals. For these animals, we are searching for a home and a loving and safe life. The descriptions are brief because there simply isn't time with the daily work of caring for all the animals. For more detail, a thorough description can be requested. Please send your questions directly via email to the provided address. We will do our best to respond as soon as possible. Home sought For Velma, we are searching for a loving, understanding home. Our cats come – as health and age allow – neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed, and with an EU Pass into the new home. Additionally, they are tested for FELV/FIV. We look forward to your contact.

Beschreibung Unsere Tierschützer berichten:Die pechschwarzen Samtpfötchen Daphne und Velma (beide Mädchen) sowie ihre Brüder Shaggy und Fred wurden mutterlos im Alter von nur zwei Monaten auf der Straße gefunden. Schutzlos und verloren – doch zum Glück wurden sie rechtzeitig entdeckt. Velma zeigt sich lieb, verschmust und freundlich zu jedem. Jetzt träumt sie davon, endlich ein warmes Körbchen und ein liebevolles Zuhause zu finden, in dem sie sicher und geborgen aufwachsen darf. Darf eines dieser Samtpfötchen dein Herz erobern – oder sogar zwei von ihnen gemeinsam dein Zuhause bereichern? Wer öffnet seine Tür für die kleinen Wunder auf vier Pfoten?

About Velma

What life with Velma looks like

Velma is a adult mixed breed cat cat waiting at Tierischgeholfen e.V. in Germany.

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. 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 Velma, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Velma?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierischgeholfen e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Velma on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Velma if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierischgeholfen 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Velma 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 Velma 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 Tierischgeholfen e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Velma 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.
