Wanda

European Shorthair · Female · Young · 1 year

Wanda, a stray cat, was brought to the shelter. She is now looking for a new home as no one seems to be missing her. Initially, she was a bit reserved. But after meeting her caregivers, she realized they can pet her very well and she enjoys it now. In new situations, she can get stressed and growl. She gets along well with other cats that don't have as much energy after an adjustment period. Older children who give her time and respect her boundaries would probably be fine. If you would like to give her a home, have thought carefully about your decision and your landlord agrees, please send an email to and tell us about yourself and your living conditions. See you soon, Wanda

Hallo zusammen, mein Name ist Wanda Ich wurde als Fundkatze ins Tierheim gebracht. Ich suche nun ein neues Zuhause, da mich bisher leider niemand zu vermissen scheint. Anfangs war ich ein bisschen zurückhaltend. Aber als ich meine Pfleger kennengelernt habe, habe ich gemerkt, dass sie mich sehr gut streicheln können und das genieße ich jetzt auch. In neuen Situationen bin ich manchmal etwas gestresst und dann fauche ich auch mal. Mit den anderen Katzen, die nicht ganz so viel Energie haben, komme ich nach einer Eingewöhnungszeit gut zu recht. Ältere Kinder, die mir erstmal Zeit geben und meine Grenzen respektieren, wären vermutlich in Ordnung Möchtest Du mir ein Zuhause schenken, hast dir deine Entscheidung gut überlegt und dein Vermieter ist einverstanden? Dann schreibe doch gerne eine E-Mail an und erzähle darin etwas über dich und deine Haltungsbedingungen. Bis bald, Wanda

About Wanda

What life with Wanda looks like

Wanda is a young adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Stuttgart in Stuttgart.

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 Wanda, answered.

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