Mixed Breed · Male · Kitten · 10 months

BOB Gender: Male Birth: October 2024 In the Ark since: 28.10.2026 Origin: Transfer Compatible with dogs: yes Children: does not know children yet Vaccinated and chipped: yes EU pet passport: yes Adoption fee: €530 Bob is part of a small dog family that we took in due to the former owner's illness. All are quite "quirky" and energetic, probably due to a certain genetics from Pekingese, Cavalier King Charles Spaniel or a similar breed. In their previous home, the dog family did not have much contact with humans, and that is still noticeable today, as they find it difficult to trust people. They are always very happy to see us, but skepticism still prevails, and they tend to avoid physical contact. At our shelter, they are currently learning about life in the house and walking on a leash. Bob has even made himself comfortable in our volunteer's apartment, right next to her, so we are confident that he will continue to warm up with time. We are now looking for a home for Bob with people who can show him, with loving consistency and a lot of patience, how life as a family dog works. A little dog experience would certainly be very useful to give him the orientation he needs with a confident appearance, structures, and clear rules. A friendly first dog in the new home would certainly make the start easier for him.

Name: BOBGeschlecht: Rüde. Geboren: Oktober 2024 In der Arche seit: 28.10.2026Herkunft: Übernahme Verträglich mitHunden: jaKindern: kennt Kinder bisher nicht Geimpft und gechipt: jaEU-Heimtierausweis: jaSchutzgebühr: 530€ Bob ist Teil einer kleinen Hundefamilie, die wir aufgrund von Krankheit des ehemaligen Besitzers in die Arche aufgenommen haben. Alle sind recht „quirlig“ und aufgedreht, vermutlich hängt das auch mit einer gewissen Genetik von Pekinese, Cavalier King Charles Spaniel oder einer ähnlichen Rasse zusammen. In ihrem früheren Zuhause hatte die Hundefamilie nicht besonders viel Kontakt zum Menschen und das merkt man ihnen auch heute noch an, denn so richtig zu vertrauen, fällt ihnen bisher schwer. Die Freude über uns Menschen ist immer groß, aber die Skepsis überwiegt noch und Berührungen werden somit eher gemieden. Bei uns lernen sie zur Zeit das Leben im Haus und das Spazierengehen an der Leine kennen. Bob hat es sich in unserer Volontärswohnung sogar schon im Bett einer Volontärin gleich neben ihr gemütlich gemacht, wir sind also sehr zuversichtlich, dass er mit etwas Zeit immer weiter auftauen wird. Für Bob suchen wir nun ein Zuhause bei Menschen, die ihm mit liebevoller Konsequenz und viel Geduld zeigen, wie das Leben als Familienhund funktioniert. Ein wenig Hundeerfahrung wäre sicher sehr sinnvoll, um ihm anhand eines souveränen Auftretens, Strukturen und klaren Regeln die Orientierung zu schenken, die er benötigt. Ein freundlicher Ersthund im neuen Zuhause würde ihm den Start sicher erleichtern. Eine

About BOB

What life with BOB looks like

BOB is a kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Arche Noah Transilvania e.V. in Germany.

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 Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting BOB, answered.

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