Alf

Male

A helper we’ve known for some time took in a heavily pregnant cat. Just a few days after the cat’s arrival, she gave birth to five kittens. One kitten was already dead, and another soon passed away as well. Fortunately, the remaining three have developed splendidly, so we’re now delighted to introduce them to you. The mother will stay with the finder. Of course, she’ll be spayed, since we certainly don’t want to risk any more litters. Alba, Asia, and their little brother Alf are lively and playful, curiously exploring their surroundings. They continue to be lovingly cared for by their mom. But soon they’ll be old enough to start a new life. As soon as legal requirements allow, we’d like to bring this trio to Germany. Here, Alba, Asia, and Alf will find their forever homes with wonderful families. If you’d like to welcome little Alf—preferably along with one of his sisters—into your family, we’d be thrilled to hear from you. Alf will not be given as a single cat and can only be placed in an apartment with a screened balcony or a securely fenced terrace.

Einer Helferin, die wir schon länger kennen, war eine hochträchtige Katze zugelaufen. Schon wenige Tage nach der Ankunft brachte die Katze dann fünf Babys zur Welt. Eines war schon tot, ein weiteres Baby verstarb kurz darauf.Doch diese drei haben sich glücklicherweise gut entwickelt, so dass wir sie nun hier vorstellen können.Die Mama soll bei der Finderin bleiben. Natürlich wird sie kastriert, denn weiteren Nachwuchs wollen wir natürlich nicht riskieren.Alba und Asia und ihr Brüderchen Alf sind lebhaft und verspielt und erkunden neugierig ihr Umfeld. Nach wie vor werden sie liebevoll von ihrer Mama betreut. Aber bald werden sie dann ja alt genug sein, in ein neues Leben zu starten. So schnell wie es die gesetzlichen Vorgaben erlauben, möchten wir das Trio nach Deutschland holen. Hier sollen Alba, Asia und Alf dann bei lieben Familien ihre Traumzuhause für immer finden. Wenn Sie den kleinen Alf - gern mit einer seiner Schwestern - in Ihre Familie aufnehmen möchten, freuen wir uns über Ihre Nachricht. Er wird nicht als Einzelkatze und nur in Wohnungshaltung mit vernetztem Balkon bzw. gesicherter Terrasse vergeben.

About Alf

What life with Alf looks like

Alf is a adult cat waiting at ProTier 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 Alf, answered.

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