BUDDY

Male · Young · 2 years

Buddy is warming up after initial hesitation and comes trustingly to his visitors after a short check and lets himself be stroked and stroked. He gets along with his roommates, but we suspect he doesn't necessarily need cat company in his new home. We wish Buddy a loving home where he gets petting and after a several-week acclimatization he can also go outside again. Our cats are vaccinated, chipped and dewormed against a fee and a protection contract through the Osnabrück Cat Protection Association. We are very happy about your contact! Until you get to know your desired candidate personally, you can observe Buddy online via the webcams at (Room A3). You can also find news about many of our protégés including photos and videos on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok or on our YouTube Channel Katzenschutzbund Osnabrück e.V. There is always something going on in our cat house!

DE·Show original

Unser Buddy ist nach anfänglicher Zurückhaltung aufgetaut und kommt schon nach kurzem Abchecken vertrauensvoll auf seine Besucher zu und lässt sich streicheln und kraulen. Er kommt mit seinen Zimmergenossen zwar klar, aber wir vermuten, er braucht nicht unbedingt Katzengesellschaft in seinem neuen Heim. Für Buddy wünschen wir uns ein liebevolles Zuhause, wo er Streicheleinheiten bekommt und nach einer mehrwöchigen Eingewöhnung auch wieder nach draußen darf. Unsere Katzen werden geimpft, gechipt und entwurmt gegen Schutzgebühr und Schutzvertrag über den Katzenschutzbund Osnabrück abgegeben. Wir freuen uns sehr auf Ihre Kontaktaufnahme! Bis Sie Ihren Wunschkandidaten persönlich kennenlernen, beobachten Sie doch Buddy online über die Webcams auf (Raum A3). Neuigkeiten über viele unserer Schützlinge inkl. Fotos und Videos finden Sie natürlich auch bei Instagram, Facebook, TikTok oder auf unserem YouTube Channel Katzenschutzbund Osnabrück e.V. In unserem Mietzhaus ist nämlich immer was los!

About BUDDY

What life with BUDDY looks like

BUDDY is a young adult cat waiting at Katzenschutzbund in Brüggen-Bracht.

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 BUDDY, answered.

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