Adopt Arnie

European Shorthair · Male · Adult · 4 years

– a nice partner tomcat with a hat Status: available Name: Arnie Breed: EKH Gender: neutered/malespayed Color: white with tiger spots Age: 4 years Old Gets along with: fellow animals The cheerful tomcat Arnie, originally from Romania, is a absolute sunshine in the cat room…. With a "tiger hat" on his head, the 4-year-old tomcat is maximally social towards fellow animals, almost bordering on being distanceless, and approaches all fur noses curiously, introducing himself politely. Thus, it is clear: Arnie needs a friendly cat or -tomcat to cuddle and play with for happiness. People are also unconditionally spoiled. Arnie is the perfect cuddler! Ideal home: A home with a nice family, preferably with children, and a nice existing cat or -tomcat, or maybe with one of his friends he met in the cat room. A secured balcony would be great, and a quiet outdoor walk is also possible. Contact: Who would like to meet our hat cat?. This cat needs outdoor access.

– netter Partnerkater mit Mütze Status: reserviert Name: Arnie Rasse: EKH Geschlecht: männlich/kastriert Farbe: weiß mit Tigerflecken Alter: 4 Jahre Verträglich mit: Artgenossen Der fröhliche Kater Arnie stammt ursprünglich aus Rumänien und ist ein absoluter Sonnenschein im Katzenzimmer…. Maximal sozial gegenüber Artgenossen, fast schon distanzlos, geht der 4 Jahre alte Kater mit „Tigermütze“ auf dem Kopf neugierig auf alle Fellnasen zu und stellt sich höflich vor. Somit ist klar: Arnie braucht zum Glücklichsein unbedingt eine/n freundlichen Katze oder -kater, mit der er kuscheln und spielen kann. Auch Menschen werden bedingungslos beschmust. Arnie ist der perfekte Kuschler! Wunschzuhause: Ein Zuhause bei einer netten Familie, gern mit Kindern, und einer netten Bestandskatze oder -kater oder aber vielleicht mit einem seiner Freunde, die er im Katzenzimmer kennengelernt hat. Ein gesicherter Balkon wäre toll, verkehrsberuhigter Freigang ist auch möglich. Kontakt: Wer möchte unseren Mützenkater kennenlernen? Kontakt über Anja Kalisch,

About Arnie

What life with Arnie looks like

Arnie is a adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierschutzverein 7 Gebirge e.V. — Orscheider Hof 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 Arnie, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Arnie?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein 7 Gebirge e.V. — Orscheider Hof handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Arnie on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Arnie if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzverein 7 Gebirge e.V. — Orscheider Hof 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 Arnie 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 Arnie 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 7 Gebirge e.V. — Orscheider Hof early rather than rehoming privately; they know Arnie 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.
