Adopt Archimedes

European Shorthair · Male · Adult · 5 years

European Shorthair, 5 years old Archimedes is a sturdy, calm tomcat. He gets along problemlessly with other cats. We wish for Archimedes a new home where he can also enjoy his outdoor time after the adjustment period. This cat needs outdoor access.

About Archimedes

What life with Archimedes looks like

Archimedes is a adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Wiener Neustadt in Neustadt.

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; fees typically range €150–€350.

Frequently asked

Adopting Archimedes, answered.

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