Balu

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 7 months

Balu is a 7-month-old male cat seeking his forever home. He is ready to pack his bags and move into a loving household. Balu has already been vaccinated, chipped, and neutered, making him well prepared for his new life. His personality is simply irresistible: he is an exceptionally social, friendly, and affectionate cat who enjoys the company of people. Strokes, attention, and cuddle sessions are among his favorite things in life. He also gets along wonderfully with other animals. Currently, he lives harmoniously with dogs and cats, showing himself to be open, uncomplicated, and compatible. Therefore, he can easily join an existing friendly cat or move into a household with dog-experienced pets. Of course, he knows the litter box and behaves impeccably in the household. What he is still missing is the most important thing: a family that loves him and gives him a safe home forever. We wish for this young cat to find a home where he can enjoy outdoor time in a traffic-free, secure environment after an appropriate adjustment period. Like any curious feline, he wants to explore the world and experience the sun, grass, and fresh air. Who will give this lovable young cat the chance at a happy life full of love, security, and adventure? He is eagerly waiting for his soulmates. And he is still looking for loving sponsors who would like to support him with a sponsorship. Request information about Balu

Grundimmunisierung + Tollwut kleiner Balu sucht sein Für-immer-Zuhause Er ist erst 7 Monate alt und bereit, sein Köfferchen zu packen und in ein liebevolles Zuhause umzuziehen. Er ist bereits geimpft, gechippt und kastriert, sodass er bestens auf sein neues Leben vorbereitet ist. Sein Wesen ist einfach zum Verlieben: Er ist ein ausgesprochen sozialer, freundlicher und verschmuster Kater, der die Nähe zu Menschen sehr genießt. Streicheleinheiten, Aufmerksamkeit und gemeinsame Kuschelstunden gehören für ihn zu den schönsten Dingen des Tages. Auch mit anderen Tieren versteht er sich hervorragend. Zurzeit lebt er problemlos mit Hunden und Katzen zusammen und zeigt sich dabei offen, unkompliziert und verträglich. Deshalb kann er gerne zu einer bereits vorhandenen, freundlichen Katze ziehen oder in einen Haushalt mit hundeerfahrenen Vierbeinern vermittelt werden. Natürlich kennt er das Katzenklo und verhält sich im Haushalt vorbildlich. Was ihm jetzt noch fehlt, ist das Wichtigste überhaupt: eine Familie, die ihn liebt und ihm ein sicheres Zuhause für immer schenkt. Wir wünschen uns für den jungen Kater ein Zuhause, in dem er nach einer angemessenen Eingewöhnungszeit später Freigang in einer verkehrsarmen, sicheren Umgebung genießen darf. Denn wie jede neugierige Samtpfote möchte auch er die Welt entdecken und die Sonne, das Gras und frische Luft erleben. Wer schenkt diesem liebenswerten jungen Kater die Chance auf ein glückliches Katzenleben voller Liebe, Geborgenheit und Abenteuer? Er wartet sehnsüchtig auf seine Herzensmenschen. Und er sucht noch liebe Paten, die ihn mit einer Patenschaft unterstützen möchten Anfrage für Balu stellen

About Balu

What life with Balu looks like

Balu is a small puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Ankerhunde e.V. in Novi Grad.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇧🇦Adopting from Bosnia and Herzegovina

The shelter typically completes the animal's vaccinations, microchipping, and pet passport before adoption. Specific fees and process details vary by shelter and country — confirm directly via the contact details in the sidebar.

Frequently asked

Adopting Balu, answered.

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