Benny & Bibi

Unknown

Bibi and Benni were secured in Grattersdorf near the church. We are currently also trying to catch their mother with a live trap so that she can be urgently spayed. The two young cats have not had close contact with humans so far and are still quite shy with us. Everything is new and unfamiliar to them, so they need above all time, patience and understanding to gain trust. However, we are confident that they will become more affectionate with the right support. Since Bibi and Benni are closely connected, we very much hope that they can move into their new home together. Together they give each other security and can master their further life path side by side. Of course, both have already been examined by a veterinarian. They are vaccinated, dewormed and microchipped. Now Bibi and Benni are waiting for loving people who will give them the time to arrive at their own pace and build trust.

Bibi und Benni wurden in Grattersdorf bei der Kirche gesichert. Derzeit versuchen wir auch noch, ihre Mutter mit einer Lebendfalle einzufangen, damit sie dringend kastriert werden kann. Die beiden jungen Katzen hatten bislang keinen engen Kontakt zu Menschen und zeigen sich bei uns noch recht scheu. Für sie ist alles neu und ungewohnt, daher brauchen sie vor allem Zeit, Geduld und Verständnis, um Vertrauen zu fassen. Wir sind jedoch zuversichtlich, dass sie mit der richtigen Unterstützung immer zutraulicher werden. Da Bibi und Benni eng miteinander verbunden sind, wünschen wir uns sehr, dass sie gemeinsam in ihr neues Zuhause ziehen dürfen. Zusammen geben sie sich Sicherheit und können ihren weiteren Lebensweg Seite an Seite meistern. Selbstverständlich wurden beide bereits tierärztlich untersucht. Sie sind geimpft, entwurmt und gechippt. Nun warten Bibi und Benni auf liebevolle Menschen, die ihnen die Zeit geben, in ihrem eigenen Tempo anzukommen und Vertrauen aufzubauen.

About Benny & Bibi

What life with Benny & Bibi looks like

Benny & Bibi is a adult cat waiting at Tierheim Plattling in Plattling.

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 Benny & Bibi, answered.

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