How do I contact the shelter about Basilu?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Katzenhaus-Freunde handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Basilu on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Basilu if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Katzenhaus-Freunde 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 Basilu 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 Basilu 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 Katzenhaus-Freunde early rather than rehoming privately; they know Basilu 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.

Basilu

Mixed Breed Cat · Male · Kitten · 4 months

Basilu is a sweet little kitty and the only small tomcat of the four siblings. Together with his mom and his three sisters, he moved into a foster home. He has a big appetite and often is one of the first to want to drink from mom. The little man is simply adorable and is developing day by day. Basilu has great luck to have such a wonderful mom who takes care of him and helps him grow. Cat adoption story of the group MamaSita's Kitten This loving kitten ran into the arms of a kind gentleman. She probably came from a nearby farm. Shortly after, she gave birth to her kittens, who were entrusted to us for loving care. The cat mom will be neutered after the care of her little ones and can then return to her familiar surroundings. She is registered at STMZ. We wish her kittens a loving forever home. They will preferably be rehomed as apartment cats with a securely fenced balcony or with a free roam in a quiet, green, and rural environment. If anyone would like to give the little velvet paws a foster home, they are welcome to contact us. This cat needs outdoor access.

Basilu ist ein süsses kleines Kitty und der einzige kleine Kater der vier Geschwister. Gemeinsam mit seiner Mama und seinen drei Schwestern ist er in die Pflegestelle eingezogen. Er hat grossen Appetit und gehört oft zu den Ersten, die bei Mama trinken möchten. Der kleine Mann ist einfach zuckersüss und entwickelt sich Tag für Tag weiter. Basilu hat grosses Glück, eine so wundervolle Mama zu haben, die sich liebevoll um ihn kümmert und ihn beim Grosswerden unterstützt. Katze besuchen / adoptieren Geschichte der Gruppe MamaSita's Kitten Diese liebe Kätzin ist einem freundlichen Herrn zugelaufen. Vermutlich stammt sie von einem Bauernhof in der Umgebung. Kurz darauf brachte sie ihre Kitten zur Welt, die uns zur liebevollen Aufzucht anvertraut wurden. Die Katzenmama wird nach der Aufzucht ihrer Kleinen kastriert und darf anschließend wieder in ihr vertrautes Umfeld zurückkehren. Sie ist beim STMZ ausgeschrieben. Für ihre Kitten wünschen wir uns ein liebevolles Für-immer-Zuhause. Sie werden vorzugsweise als Wohnungskatzen mit gesichertem, eingenetztem Balkon oder mit Freigang in einer ruhigen, grünen und ländlichen Umgebung vermittelt. Wer den kleinen Samtpfoten ein geborgenes Zuhause schenken möchte, darf sich gerne bei uns melden. Basilu Flora Lily Rose

About Basilu

What life with Basilu looks like

Basilu is a puppy/kitten mixed breed cat cat waiting at Katzenhaus-Freunde in Zürich region.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇨🇭Adopting from Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.
