Yara

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Young · 3 years

Yara came to our shelter as a litter of three found kittens in late August. The little ones are now big enough to leave the nest and sweet Yara is now looking for a new home. A mammary gland tumor was discovered during her spay/neuter surgery and was removed at the same time.The approximately three-year-old cat is very lively and curious, enjoys cuddling and appreciates the attention of us two-legged creatures. She shows herself to be conditionally compatible with other cats, cuddling with some and chasing others away, as it depends on her sympathy. We wish Yara a loving home, either as a single princess or with a compatible companion, in which she will have the opportunity to go outside after an adjustment period. Please note: The animal descriptions are based on observations in the shelter or on information from third parties and do not represent guaranteed properties. The behavior in family accommodation may therefore differ from the descriptions.

Yara kam Ende August gemeinsam mit ihrem dreiköpfigen Wurf als Fundkatze zu uns ins Tierheim. Die Kleinen sind mittlerweile groß genug das Nest zu verlassen und die liebe Yara sucht nun selbst nach einem neuen passenden Zuhause. Bei ihrer Kastration wurde ein Gesäugeleistentumor festgestellt, welcher im gleichen Atemzug mit entfernt wurde.Die circa dreijährige Katze ist sehr aufgeweckt und neugierig, kommt gerne zum schmusen und genießt die Aufmerksamkeiten von uns Zweibeinern. Mit Artgenossen zeigt sie sich bedingt verträglich, wobei sie mit den einen schmust und die anderen verjagt, da entscheidet wohl die Sympathie. Für Yara wünschen wir uns ein liebevolles Zuhause, entweder als Einzelprinzessin oder mit einem verträglichen Artgenossen, in welchem sie nach einer Eingewöhnungszeit die Möglichkeit auf Freigang erhält.

About Yara

What life with Yara looks like

Yara is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Zwickau in Zwickau.

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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Yara, answered.

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