Andrich

European Shorthair · Male · Adult · 7 years

Characteristics: Andrich arrived as a found animal at the animal shelter. It is likely that he lived as a stray before. People generally find him quite nice and he also enjoys snuggling. However, his mood can change quickly and he can be grumpy. Therefore, children should probably not be in his new home. Our giant fellow seeks a home with a yard. He would also feel comfortable on a farm or riding stable. This cat needs outdoor access.

Wesenszüge: Andrich kam als Fundtier zu ins Tierheim. Vermutlich lebte er vorher als Streuner. Menschen findet er eigentlich ganz nett und kommt auch gern zum Schmusen. Allerdings kann seine Stimmung auch schnell umschlagen und er wird kratzbürstig. Kinder sollte es daher besser nicht in seinem neuen Zuhause geben. Unser Hüne sucht ein Zuhause mit Freigang. Auch auf einem Bauern- oder Reiterhof würde er sich sicherlich wohlfühlen.

About Andrich

What life with Andrich looks like

Andrich is a adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Kaiserslautern 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 Andrich, answered.

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