Carlo

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 9 years

Carlo is a sweet and easy-going cat who is looking for a new home due to personal circumstances. Born on May 1, 2017, Carlo currently lives in Geretsried and is either looking for a suitable foster home or a loving forever home. Carlo is a single cat and enjoys having his humans to himself. He is not a big cuddler and enjoys having his own space. At the same time, he is a very sweet and friendly cat. Carlo is a rather independent cat with a friendly nature. He has never scratched or bitten. If he doesn't like something or wants his space, he shows his boundaries in a very charming way: he meows briefly and tells his humans that he's had enough. Although Carlo is not a big cuddler, he does have his cuddly moments. He especially shows his loving side at night and likes to sleep at the head of his current little person. Carlo is a real outdoor cat and loves to be outdoors. When he's not lying comfortably at home, he likes to go on an exploration tour and show off his hunting passion. As befits an experienced outdoor cat, he occasionally brings his "gifts" home - unfortunately, including mice and birds. For Carlo, a home with suitable outdoor access is therefore particularly important. Carlo is specifically looking for a home where he can be a single cat. He doesn't want to have to share his humans with other cats and should therefore not be rehomed with another cat.

sucht Pflegestelle oder neues Zuhause Gastvermittlung – Privatabgabe Carlo ist ein lieber und unkomplizierter Kater, der aufgrund privater Umstände ein neues Zuhause sucht. Der am 01.05.2017 geborene Kater lebt aktuell in Geretsried und sucht entweder eine passende Pflegestelle oder direkt ein liebevolles Endzuhause. Carlo ist ein Einzelkater und möchte seine Menschen gerne für sich haben. Er ist kein großer Schmusekater und genießt es, seinen eigenen Freiraum zu haben. Gleichzeitig ist er ein sehr lieber und freundlicher Kater. Carlo ist ein eher unabhängiger Kater mit einem freundlichen Wesen. Er hat noch nie gekratzt oder gebissen. Wenn ihm etwas nicht gefällt oder er seine Ruhe möchte, zeigt er seine Grenzen auf eine sehr charmante Art: Er maunzt kurz und teilt seinen Menschen damit mit, dass es ihm gerade reicht. Auch wenn Carlo kein großer Schmuser ist, hat er durchaus seine kuscheligen Momente. Besonders nachts zeigt er seine liebevolle Seite und schläft am liebsten am Kopf seiner bisherigen kleinen Bezugsperson. Carlo ist ein echter Freigänger und liebt es, draußen unterwegs zu sein. Wenn er nicht gerade gemütlich zu Hause liegt, geht er gerne auf Erkundungstour und zeigt dabei auch seine Jagdleidenschaft. Wie es sich für einen erfahrenen Freigänger gehört, bringt er gelegentlich seine „Geschenke“ mit nach Hause – darunter leider auch Mäuse und Vögel. Für Carlo ist ein Zuhause mit geeigneter Freigangmöglichkeit daher besonders wichtig. Carlo sucht ausdrücklich ein Zuhause, in dem er Einzelkater sein darf. Er möchte seine Menschen nicht mit anderen Katzen teilen müssen und sollte daher nicht zu einer weiteren Katze vermittelt werden.

About Carlo

What life with Carlo looks like

Carlo is a large adult mixed breed cat waiting at Pfötchenhilfe Loisachtal e.V. in Benediktbeuern.

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 Carlo, answered.

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