Badem

Female · Adult · 4 years

Badem has lived with her owners for the last year and a half with an open wound on her hind leg. Because the injury could not close due to inconsistent treatment and veterinary costs continued to rise, she was surrendered at the animal shelter. We have been treating Badem since she arrived here and now her leg looks really good. Nevertheless, the wound must first fully heal before you can stop wearing a collar. So she still has a little way to go in recovery. Badem is a very loving, playful and lively single cat. She likes to wrestle, run around and do all sorts of mischief. She wants a home with spacious indoor living, cat experience and lots of action. Older children would not be a problem for her either.

DE·Show original

Badem hat die letzten anderthalb Jahre mit einer offenen Wunde am Hinterbein bei ihren Besitzern gelebt. Da sich die Verletzung aufgrund inkonsequenter Behandlung nicht verschließen konnte und die Tierarztkosten immer weiter anstiegen, wurde sie im Tierheim abgegeben. Wir behandeln Badem seit sie hier ist und mittlerweile sieht ihr Bein wieder richtig gut aus. Dennoch muss die Wunde erst vollständig verheilen, bevor Sie auf das Tragen eines Halskragens verzichten darf. Sie hat also noch einen kleinen Weg der Genesung vor sich. Badem ist eine sehr liebe, verspielte und aufgeweckte Einzelkatze. Sie rauft gerne, rennt gerne und macht allerlei Blödsinn. Sie wünscht sich ein Zuhause mit großzügiger Innenhaltung, Katzenerfahrung und viel Action. Größere Kinder wären für sie sicherlich auch kein Problem.

About Badem

What life with Badem looks like

Badem is a large adult cat waiting at Tierheim Bergheim in Bergheim.

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 Badem, answered.

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