How do I contact the shelter about Alwin?

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

Can I adopt Alwin if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Ein Herz für Streuner 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 Alwin 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 Alwin 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 Ein Herz für Streuner e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Alwin 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.

adoption requirements adoption process Adopt this animal now! adoption requirements adoption process King Alwin has found his home! His story: Alwin is a ca. five-year-old tomcat who, despite his difficult past, has maintained an incredibly friendly and balanced soul. He was rescued from an apartment where around 30 animals lived under the worst conditions. Many of his companions unfortunately did not make it, but Alwin fought bravely! Together with his fellow sufferer Gaya, he came into a foster home and was rehabilitated. Now he exudes even more joy in life! As a character, Alwin is a very relaxed tomcat. He is extremely friendly and affectionate, playful, and cuddly. During the day, he loves to simply chill and relax! He enjoys the company of people and fellow animals. Toward dogs, Alwin shows no great interest, but he gets along with them. His new life, however, Alwin would rather not face alone. If no cat roommate is already waiting for him in his new home, Alwin will surely be happy to take one of his friends from the foster home with him! Additionally, Alwin is used to life in the safe four walls and can do without the freedom. However, he would certainly be happy with a cat-safe netted balcony. Alwin is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, dewormed, treated for fleas, and was tested negative for FIV and FeLV. He also has an EU pet passport and is now ready to travel to his new home. This cat needs outdoor access.

Seine Geschichte: Alwin ist ein ca. fünf Jahre alter Kater, der trotz seiner schwierigen Vergangenheit eine unglaublich freundliche und ausgeglichene Seele bewahrt hat. Er wurde aus einer Wohnung gerettet, in der um die 30 Tiere unter schlimmsten Bedingungen lebten. Viele seiner Gefährten haben es leider nicht geschafft, doch Alwin hat tapfer gekämpft! Gemeinsam mit seiner Leidensgenossin Gaya kam er in eine Pflegestelle und wurde wieder aufgepäppelt. Nun strahlt er umso mehr Lebensfreude aus! Vom Charakter ist Alwin ein sehr entspannter Kater. Er ist überaus freundlich und liebevoll, verspielt und verschmust. Tagsüber liebt er es, einfach nur zu chillen und entspannen! Er liebt die Nähe zu Menschen und Artgenossen. Hunden gegenüber zeigt Alwin kein großes Interesse, aber er kommt mit ihnen zurecht. Sein neues Leben möchte Alwin aber ungerne alleine bestreiten. Falls kein Katzenmitbewohner bereits im neuen Zuhause auf ihn wartet, freut sich Alwin sicherlich, eins seiner Freunde aus der Pflegestelle mitzunehmen! Zudem ist Alwin gewohnt an das Leben in den sicheren vier Wänden und kann gut auf den Freigang verzichten. Über einen vernetzten Balkon würde er sich aber sicher freuen. Alwin ist kastriert, gechippt, geimpft, entwurmt, entfloht und wurde negativ auf FIV und FeLV getestet. Einen EU-Heimtierausweis besitzt er ebenfalls und wartet nun reisefertig auf sein neues Zuhause. Nach einer positiven Vorkontrolle und gegen eine Schutzgebühr von 250 Euro kann er in sein neues Zuhause ziehen.
