Balou & Puma, 5 und 4 Jahre

European Shorthair · Male · Adult · 5 years

Balou and Puma were surrendered because they became dirty after the family grew larger. The two have only recently been with us and still need to adjust to their new living conditions. Balou and Puma are currently still reserved and unsure and usually hide. Balou has become a bit bolder and quickly starts enjoying petting when handled gently. Both cats have a gentle, sensitive nature and are very affectionate. We are looking for a quiet, loving home for Balou and Puma without young children, where they can later have outdoor access. Since they are very attached to each other, they will only be placed in a new home together. If you would like to meet Balou and Puma, please contact us via phone or the contact form.

Balou und Puma wurden abgegeben, weil sie unsauber geworden sind, nachdem sich die Familie vergrößert hatte. Die beiden sind erst seit Kurzem bei uns und müssen sich erst noch an die neuen Lebensumstände gewöhnen. Balou und Puma sind aktuell noch zurückhaltend und verunsichert und verstecken sich meistens. Balou ist schon etwas mutiger geworden und fängt sehr schnell an, Streicheleinheiten zu genießen, wenn man behutsam mit ihm umgeht. Beide Kater haben ein sanftes, sensibles Wesen und sind sehr lieb. Wir wünschen uns für Balou und Puma ein ruhiges, liebevolles Zuhause ohne kleine Kinder, wo sie später Freigang bekommen. Da die beiden sehr aneinander hängen, werden sie nur zusammen in ein neues Zuhause vermittelt. Wenn Sie Balou und Puma kennenlernen möchten, melden Sie sich gerne unter oder über das Kontaktformular.

Frequently asked

Adopting Balou & Puma, 5 und 4 Jahre, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Balou & Puma, 5 und 4 Jahre?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzzentrum Ribbesbüttel handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Balou & Puma, 5 und 4 Jahre on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Balou & Puma, 5 und 4 Jahre if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzzentrum Ribbesbüttel 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Balou & Puma, 5 und 4 Jahre 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 Balou & Puma, 5 und 4 Jahre 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 Tierschutzzentrum Ribbesbüttel early rather than rehoming privately; they know Balou & Puma, 5 und 4 Jahre 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.
