Buddy

Mixed Breed · Male

Buddy wurde als Katzenwelpe zusammen mit seinen drei Geschwistern ausgesetzt in einem Karton auf der Straße gefunden. Alle vier Katzenbabys litten sehr unter Schnupfen, der bereits ihre Augen in Mitleidenschaft gezogen hatte. Der Schnupfen konnte behandelt werden, für die Augen von Buddy und einem Bruder war es bereits zu spät. Beide waren bereits erblindet. Die Augen mussten entfernt werden. Buddy wünscht sich ein Zuhause in einer größeren Wohnung mit vernetztem Balkon. Über eine nette Katze würde er sich auch freuen. Buddy ist ein unkomplizierter, freundlicher Kater, aufgeschlossen und menschenbezogen. Sobald er sich zurecht gefunden hat, schränkt ihn seine Behinderung kaum ein. Er flitzt munter drauf los und freut sich seines Lebens. möglich

About Buddy

What life with Buddy looks like

Buddy is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at Katzenschutzverein Karlsruhe e.V. in Germany.

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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

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. Katzenschutzverein Karlsruhe e.V. 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 — Katzenschutzverein Karlsruhe 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 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 Katzenschutzverein Karlsruhe e.V. 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.
