Bobby. *RESERVIERT*

Mixed Breed · Female

Bobby Alter: born ca. 06/2024. Gender: male/neutered, compatible with others: single- or dual-cat accommodation: apartment with balcony, possible outdoor accessHealth: microchipped, tested negative (FIV/FeLV), vaccinated (cold/fever)Euro Bobby and his brother Justus were born as street cats and came to us as young kittens. Since then, they have lived together with other cats on one of our foster sites. For some reason, the two have been overlooked ever since – for whatever reason. As visitors, it’s unfortunately not easy to get to know them. For when strangers are around, they simply vanish and are often nowhere to be found. Bobby is already a small challenge. As you can see from the photo, he is compatible with fellow animals. On the other hand, his foster dad has the impression that he would rather be alone often. He often does his own thing. Bobby takes treats from the hand. However, he does not like to be stroked. He firmly refuses. A big snuggle is probably not in the cards for him. But who knows for sure. Maybe he just hasn’t found “his person” yet. We are looking for cat-experienced people with perseverance who want to give Bobby a chance. There should not be too many fellow animals in his new home. This cat needs outdoor access.

Bobby Alter: geb. ca. 06/2024. Geschlecht: männlich/kastriert Verträglichkeit: Einzel-/ZweittierHaltung: Wohnung mit Balkon evtl. FreigangGesundheit: gechippt, negativ getestet (FIV/FeLV), bei Abgabe geimpft (Schnupfen/Seuche)Schutzgebühr: 210,00 Euro Bobby und sein Bruder Justus wurden als Straßenkatzen geboren und kamen als Jungkater zu uns. Seitdem leben sie zusammen mit anderen Katzen auf einer unserer Pflegestellen. Irgendwie werden die Beiden seitdem -warum auch immer- übersehen. Als Besucher hat man es leider auch nicht einfach, sie kennenzulernen. Denn wenn Fremde da sind, lösen sie sich quasi in Luft auf und sind dann nicht selten unauffindbar. Bobby ist schon eine kleine Herausforderung Wie man auf dem Foto sieht, ist er mit Artgenossen verträglich . Andererseits hat sein Pflegepapa aber den Eindruck, dass er oft lieber alleine wäre. Er macht oft sein eigenes Ding. Bobby nimmt Leckerchen aus der Hand. Streicheln lassen möchte er sich aber nicht. Da weigert er sich standhaft. Ein großer Schmuser wird er wohl nicht mehr. Aber wer weiß das schon mit Sicherheit. Vielleicht hat er auch einfach noch nicht „seinen Menschen“ gefunden. Wir suchen katzenerfahrene Menschen mit Durchhaltevermögen, die Bobby eine Chance geben wollen. Zuviele Artgenossen sollte es im neuen Zuhause nicht geben. Und es sollte genug Platz da sein, damit Bobby sich zurückziehen kann, wenn ihm danach ist Bei Freigang in einer dafür geeigneten Gegend käme auch die

About Bobby. *RESERVIERT*

Bobby. *RESERVIERT* is a large adult mixed breed cat waiting at Katzenschutzbund Köln in Köln.

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 Bobby. *RESERVIERT*, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Bobby. *RESERVIERT*?

Can I adopt Bobby. *RESERVIERT* if I live in another country?

Is Bobby. *RESERVIERT* already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?

What happens if Bobby. *RESERVIERT* 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.

Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
