Adopt Vicky

Mixed Breed · Female

Vicky Breed: European Shorthair Color: black Gender: female Birthdate: around 2013 Neutered: yes Vicky is a very shy cat towards humans and will likely remain so. She lived at RWE in Frimmersdorf for a long time, and when the cooling tower was demolished, we relocated the cats there. We then found out that she is FIV positive. Therefore, she can only be rehomed with other FIV positive cats. It would be great if her new home had a secure outdoor run.

Vicky Rasse: Europäisch Kurzhaar Farbe: schwarz Geschlecht: weiblich Geburtsdatum: ca. 2013 Kastriert: ja Vicky ist eine dem Menschen gegenüber sehr scheue Katze, wahrscheinlich wird das auch so bleiben. Sie hat lange am RWE in Frimmersdorf gelebt, als dort der Kühlturm gesprengt wurde, haben wir die Katzen dort aber umgesiedelt. Wir haben bei Ihr dann festgestellt, dass Sie FIV positiv ist. Deswegen wird sie nur zu andern FIV positiven Katzen dazu vermittelt. Es wäre schön, wenn in ihrem neuen Zuhause ein gesicherter Auslauf wäre.

About Vicky

What life with Vicky looks like

Vicky is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutzverein für den Rhein-Kreis Neuss 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 Vicky, answered.

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