Adopt Arik und Alisher

Mixed Breed · Male

These are Arik und Alisher, possibly a Main Coon/Persian mix. They came to us along with two other white doves due to not very pleasant circumstances. They are understandably still a bit scared in the photos, but that will settle down. The two need to be plumped up a bit first, as they apparently couldn't compete with the other big cats in their former home and therefore got little food. But with some good food and extras, the two should quickly gain some weight.

Das sind Arik und Alisher, evtl. Main Coon/Perser-Mix. Sie kamen mit 2 weiteren weißen tauben Katzen, wegen nicht so schönen Umständen zu uns. Sie sind auf den Fotos logischerweise noch etwas verschreckt, aber das wird sich legen. Die beiden müssen jetzt erst mal ein wenig aufgepäppelt werden, da sie sich wohl nicht gegen die anderen dicken Brocken im alten Zuhause durchsetzen konnten und daher wenig Essen abbekommen haben. Aber mit etwas gutem Futter und Extras sollten die beiden schnell wieder etwas mehr auf die Rippen bekommen.

About Arik und Alisher

What life with Arik und Alisher looks like

Arik und Alisher is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutzverein OHZ e.V. in Osterholz-Scharmbeck.

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

Frequently asked

Adopting Arik und Alisher, answered.

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