Male · Young · 3 years

Update 20.11.2023: Now that I'm old enough, I've moved into the big kitten room with my siblings. At first, I used to hide a lot here, but now I'm starting to play with the other kittens. Believe me, it's really fun! I'm still not very friendly towards people, but with some time, that will surely change. In my new home, I would like to be an outdoor cat, so your house should ideally be in a quiet location. Since I get along well with my fellow animals here, I could also move to another cat, but that's not a must. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hello, I'm Big Mac, as you can tell from my name, I'm one of the "McDonald's Kitten" litter. We're called this because we were found in the trash container at McDonald's. Now that I'm old enough, I've moved into the big kitten room with my siblings. At first, I used to hide a lot here, but now I'm starting to play with the other kittens. Believe me, it's really fun! I'm still not very friendly towards people, but with some time, that will surely change. In my new home, I would like to be an outdoor cat, so your house should ideally be in a quiet location. Additionally, I would like to move with a kitten from here or to an already existing kitten. So if you're interested in me, feel free to contact the our shelter.

Update 20.11.2023: Da ich jetzt alt genug bin, bin ich mit meinen Geschwistern zusammen ins große Kittenzimmer gezogen. Nachdem ich mich hier anfänglich viel versteckt habe, fange ich jetzt an, mit den anderen Kitten hier zu spielen. Das macht richtig Freude könnt Ihr mir glauben! Gegenüber Menschen bin ich noch nicht so nett, mit etwas Zeit wird das aber bestimmt noch. In meinem neuen Zuhause würde ich gerne Freigänger werden, daher sollte Euer Haus am besten in verkehrsberuhigter Lage liegen. Da ich mich hier super mit meinen Artgenossen verstehe kann ich auch zu anderen Katzen ziehen, das ist aber kein Muss. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hallo, ich bin Big Mac, wie unschwer an meinem Namen zu erkennen, bin ich eins von den "McDonalds-Kitten". Wie wir hier genannt werden, hat den einfachen Grund, dass wir bei McDonalds in der Müllcontainer-Anlage gefunden wurden. Da ich jetzt alt genug bin, bin ich mit meinen Geschwistern zusammen ins große Kittenzimmer gezogen. Nachdem ich mich hier anfänglich viel versteckt habe, fange ich jetzt an, mit den anderen Kitten hier zu spielen. Das macht richtig Freude könnt Ihr mir glauben! Gegenüber Menschen bin ich noch nicht so nett, mit etwas Zeit wird das bestimmt aber noch. In meinem neuen Zuhause würde ich gerne Freigänger werden, daher sollte Euer Haus am besten in verkehrsberuhigter Lage liegen. Außerdem würde ich gerne mit einem Katzenkumpel von hier oder zu einer bereits vorhandenen Jungkatze ausziehen. Also wenn Ihr Interesse an mir habt, dann meldet Euch doch gerne im Tierheim. Euer/Eure Big Mac
