Caillou

Mixed Breed Cat · Male · Kitten · 4 months

Caillou is a small, elegant cat, the most affectionate of the group. He loves to play and wrestle with his brother. He will come to sniff at your finger, but you'll need to place some treats for him. Cat visit/adoption Petrina's Kitten Petrina and her kittens were found on a farm. She was very thin and hungry. The farmer knew our association and asked us for help. Petrina and her kittens are listed at STMZ. We now hope to find a loving home for this little family with outdoor access in a green, rural environment. A cat door is a requirement so they can go outside and back home on their own. Caillou Pebble Petrina Sasso Selce

Caillou ein zierlicher kleiner Kater, er ist der zutraulichste der Gruppe. Er spielt sehr gern und rauft gern mit seinem Bruder. Er kommt schon her, um an einem Finger zu schnuppern, feste Leckerli muss man ihm dann aber hinlegen. Katze besuchen / adoptieren Geschichte der Gruppe Petrina's Kitten Petrina ist mit ihren Kitten auf einem Bauernhof zugelaufen. Sie war sehr dünn und ausgehungert. Der Bauer kannte unseren Verein und bat uns um Hilfe. Petrina und ihre Kitten sind im STMZ ausgeschrieben. Nun wünschen wir uns für diese kleine Familie ein liebevolles Zuhause mit Freigang in einer grünen, ländlichen Umgebung. Eine Katzentüre, damit sie selbstständig nach draussen und wieder nach Hause können, ist Voraussetzung. Caillou Pebble Petrina Sasso Selce

About Caillou

What life with Caillou looks like

Caillou is a small puppy/kitten mixed breed cat cat waiting at Katzenhaus-Freunde in Zürich region.

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 Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.

Frequently asked

Adopting Caillou, answered.

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