How do I contact the shelter about Zaggie?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Berlin handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Zaggie on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Zaggie if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Berlin 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 Zaggie 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 Zaggie 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 Berlin early rather than rehoming privately; they know Zaggie 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.

Zaggie

European Shorthair · Female · Adult · 5 years

Zaggie is a cat who has had quite an eventful life. Now, I would like to find a loving home where I can relax and enjoy my cat happiness. 🧡 Here's my story: I originally come from Romania and was brought to Germany illegally. It turned out I was pregnant. I have lovingly raised my kittens - almost all of them have already found a home. Now I would like to find my very own people. I am an active, playful, very affectionate and loving cat. I know what I want and can be a bit bossy with other cats. But basically I am very sociable. My confident nature is just part of me and makes me a very special personality. I would like... people who give me time to settle in and at the same time offer me a lot of activity, closeness and variety. Since I have experienced both free-range in Romania and in Berlin, I would like to find a home where I can have the opportunity to safely go outside. Who would like to show me how beautiful a home can be? If you are interested, please contact me using the contact form below - I am looking forward to you.

Ich bin Zaggie … und hab in meinem kurzen Leben schon ganz schön was erlebt. Jetzt würde ich gern in einem liebevollen Zuhause zur Ruhe kommen und mein Katzenglück genießen.🧡 Das bin ich: Ursprünglich stamme ich aus Rumänien und wurde von dort illegal nach Deutschland gebracht. Hier stellte sich heraus, dass ich tragend war. Inzwischen habe ich meine Kitten liebevoll großgezogen – fast alle haben schon ein Zuhause gefunden. Nun möchte auch ich meine ganz eigenen Menschen finden. Ich bin eine aktive, verspielte, sehr verschmuste und liebe Katze. Ich weiß durchaus, was ich möchte, und kann gegenüber anderen Katzen schon auch mal etwas bestimmend auftreten. Grundsätzlich bin ich aber verträglich. Meine selbstbewusste Art gehört einfach zu mir und macht mich zu einer ganz besonderen Persönlichkeit. Ich wünsche mir … Menschen, die mir Zeit geben, in Ruhe anzukommen, und mir gleichzeitig viel Beschäftigung, Nähe und Abwechslung bieten. Da ich sowohl in Rumänien als auch in Berlin Freigang kennengelernt habe, wünsche ich mir wieder ein Zuhause, in dem ich die Möglichkeit zu sicherem Freigang bekomme. Wer möchte mir zeigen, wie schön ein eigenes Zuhause sein kann? Melde dich bei Interesse gern über das Anfrageformular unten – ich freue mich auf dich.

About Zaggie

What life with Zaggie looks like

Zaggie is a large adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Berlin in Berlin.

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.
