Cozy Berlin Home with a cat

Welcome to the ENGLISH VERSION ....

Room offer for someone who can read

Please read it....
in only 3 minutes you will find all relevant information about the flat share in this ad in German and English.
I will only reply to applicants who take the time to read my ad thoroughly, answer the following questions in their application and respond to the specific needs of the shared flat.

Unfortunately, I cannot accept couples, dogs or cats. Anmeldung is possible, but takes time as the landlord is soooo lame. If you need it soon it's not gonna work out.


Hello,
I am looking for 1 roommate for a nice, bright, fully furnished room in a cozy home in a very desirable location.
Valued attributes: animal lover, responsible, adaptable, tidy & quiet
Someone who will responsibly take care of the animal and home when I am not around (which is not that often)

Important for me is:
That you read my ad thoroughly to the end
That you integrate yourself and are not a foreign body

MY HOME IS MY CASTLE
Flatmates come and go, me & the cat stay, because this is our home ... and has been for over 26 years.

About me:
I am a make-up artist with irregular working hours and am therefore at home a lot.
I would describe myself as friendly, balanced and open-minded - as long as it is reciprocal. I really appreciate open communication & independent cleanliness.
I value a friendly relationship with my flatmates.
Eating, chatting and going on outings together is nice, but not obligatory.
I prefer quiet & positive roommates who also appreciate this in return.
I live in the smallest room in the shared flat and spend my time in the living room and kitchen. I smoke in the living room in the evenings, but make sure it doesn't smell too bad. I don't like bad smell myself. Tolerant non-smokers have never been bothered by this.
The balance between together and "alone" is important to me.
I live resource-efficiently (water, electricity & gas $$$!) and would like my flatmates to do the same.
I am very interested in environmental protection, animal welfare and ecological gardening (balcony). Ideally, these things are just as important to you and you have a green thumb ;)

The cat:
She's an old girl, unfortunately she doesn't like other cats or dogs.
I look after her for the most part, of course, but if I'm unavailable, it's important for me to know that she's in good hands. As mentioned above, I have irregular working hours and sometimes work in the evenings when it's feeding time. It would be great if you could take over.
She likes to stay in your room & likes to lie on your bed and above all she loves her little balcony by your window.
She loves it especially in the early morning, if the door is closed in the early hours of the morning, there is catcalling!
If you have to get up early anyway, it might work with a closed door at night. We'd have to try it out, but I can't guarantee anything.
I've tried to explain to her what privacy is, but she just doesn't understand ;)
Cat connoisseurs know that closed doors are a 'no go', that's why our doors are always ajar.
Unfortunately, the room is not for you if you don't understand it.

Living in a resource-conserving way, what does that mean?

*Putting on one more sweater than turning up the heating
*Not showering for hours on end & saving water in general
*turn off your laptop when not in use & at night
*Lights off when not at home, in the room & at night
*Turn down the heating when not at home and at night

The ideal candidate is:

RESPONSIBLE: towards the cat, the facility, resources & Corona
ADAPTABLE: to my existing habits (25 years!)
RESPECTFUL: Compliance with the house rules, participation in the household.
CLEAN: Independent & regular
QUIET: Night rest & early in the morning
RELAXED: With each other
ANIMAL LOVE: Cat

So, done .... read everything!

Would you like to apply?
PLEASE follow the guidelines for your successful application.

1) please write the CODEWORD: MIAU instead of <Hello> in your message so that I know that YOU have really read the ad.

2) Unfortunately I cannot attach an application form here. That's why I ask you to just simply COPY the following QUESTIONS + your ANSWERS into your message.
This is the easiest way for me to keep track of everything.

* What a hurry you are in with your registration?

* Have you read and considered the section about the cat carefully?
- Are you comfortable with the idea of being responsible for home and pets when I'm away?
- Do you think a cat in bed is ...?
- Can you cope with a room door that is only ajar?
* Are you in Berlin when I'm on holiday? (see sonstiges)
* Are you okay with the fact that I smoke (therapeutic smoking ;) ?
* Can you come by for a personal viewing ? If yes, when?
