Baba

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

Baba, male, born 2024, EKH Baba came to us through the veterinary office with many other cats. He is extremely shy, sometimes even panicked. It will take a long time for him to trust. Therefore, patient and knowledgeable cat people who can give him this time are needed. He would love to move in with one of his buddies (or a laid-back first cat) to a family without children. A secure balcony would be great, he loves being on the terrace here. If you're interested in sweet Baba, please arrange an initial meeting. -2 { margin: auto; } -2 -2 img { border: 2px solid ; } -2 /* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes/media.php */

Baba, männlich, geboren 2024, EKH Baba kam mit vielen weiteren Katzen über das Veterinäramt zu uns. Er ist extrem schüchtern, manchmal sogar panisch. Es wird lange dauern, bis er vertraut. Deshalb braucht es geduldige und kundige Katzenmenschen, die ihm diese Zeit geben. Er würde am liebsten mit einem seiner Kumpels (oder zu einer gechillten Erstkatze) in eine Familie ohne Kinder ziehen. Ein gesicherter Balkon wäre toll, er ist bei uns sehr gerne auf der Terasse. Wer sich für den süßen Baba interessiert, vereinbart gerne einen ersten Kennenlerntermin. -2 { margin: auto; } -2 -2 img { border: 2px solid ; } -2 /* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes/media.php */

About Baba

What life with Baba looks like

Baba is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Pirmasens in Pirmasens.

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 Baba, answered.

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