Alvin

European Shorthair · Male

Der hübsche Kater Alvin ist auf der Suche nach einem neuen Zuhause, in dem er ankommen und sich wohlfühlen darf. ❤️ Alvin ist ein etwa 6 Jahre alter, kastrierter Kater, der ursprünglich als Fundtier zu uns gekommen ist. Über seine Vergangenheit ist daher leider nicht viel bekannt. Für Alvin wünschen wir uns liebevolle Menschen, die ihm die Zeit geben, die er braucht, um sich in seiner neuen Umgebung einzugewöhnen. Nach einer angemessenen Eingewöhnungszeit sollte Alvin wieder die Möglichkeit zum Freigang bekommen, damit er seine Umgebung erkunden und seine Streifzüge genießen kann. Wer schenkt Alvin ein schönes Zuhause, in dem er für immer bleiben darf? 🏡🐱

About Alvin

What life with Alvin looks like

Alvin is an adult european shorthair cat waiting at Landestierschutzverein Steiermark in Graz.

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 Austria

Austrian shelters follow the federal Tierschutzgesetz framework: adopters sign a Schutzvertrag (protection contract) committing to the animal's welfare. Spay/neuter, microchip, and vaccinations are included.

Frequently asked

Adopting Alvin, answered.

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