Baggy ♂ (vormals Jack)

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 10 years

Im Mai 2023 fand ein Vereinsmitglied Baggy quasi auf dem eigenen Grundstück. Er war in einem sehr schlechtem Zustand: abgemagert, krank und hatte absolut kein Vertrauen zu Menschen. Nach einem Arztbesuch kam er in eine Pflegestelle, aus der er aber nach einem Monat ausbüxte. Dank aufmerksamer Passanten konnte er wieder gesichert werden und kam in eine andere Pflegestelle. Baggy war jedoch immer noch sehr krank und musste an den Augen operiert werden. Nach zwei Monaten konnte ihn die neue Pflegestelle endlich anfassen, und mit Geduld und Übung hatte er so viel Vertrauen gefasst, dass seine Betreuerin ihm sogar mehrmals am Tag Augentropfen geben konnte. Baggy ist eine sehr schöner Kater und wir vermuten, dass er über 10 Jahre alt ist. Obwohl er über 8 Kilo wiegt und scharfe, große Zähne hat, ist er gegenüber anderen Katzen eher ängstlich. Auch gegenüber Menschen ist er sehr skeptisch. Es dauerte über ein Jahr, ehe die Familienmitglieder der Pflegestelle ihn anfassen konnten. Baggy lebt überwiegend draußen und hängt mittlerweile sehr an seiner Betreuerin. <img decoding="async" width="2000" height="1500" src=" goettinger-katzenschutz. de/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/Buggy-2. jpg" class="attachment-full size-full" alt="Schwarzer Kater mit verklebten Augen sitzt scheu in Ecke" srcset=" goettinger-katzenschutz. de/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/Buggy-2. jpg 2000w, goettinger-katzenschutz. de/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/Buggy-2-300x225. jpg 300w, goettinger-katzenschutz. de/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/Buggy-2-1024x768. jpg 1024w, goettinger-katzenschutz. de/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/Buggy-2-768x576. jpg 768w, goettinger-katzenschutz. de/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/Buggy-2-1536x1152. jpg 1536w, goettinger-katzenschutz. de/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/Buggy-2-580x435. jpg 580w, goettinger-katzenschutz. de/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/Buggy-2-820x615. jpg 820w, goettinger-katzenschutz. de/wp-content/u

About Baggy ♂ (vormals Jack)

What life with Baggy ♂ (vormals Jack) looks like

Baggy ♂ (vormals Jack) is a large adult mixed breed cat waiting at Göttinger Katzenschutz e.V. in Göttingen.

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 Baggy ♂ (vormals Jack), answered.

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