Adopt Charlie

Maine Coon · Male · Adult · 6 years

Charlie * 2019 Charlie only wants to move into the new home with his sister Rosie. They came to us as surrender cats. By now, they have lost their fear of unfamiliar voices and are starting to play. In the new home, some patience for the first few days would be appreciated, as they might react a bit uncertainly at first. After settling in, they are affectionate family cats who love to snuggle. Fur care is important and they enjoy it too. Both cats are neutered, dewormed, microchipped, and vaccinated. The foster home is looking forward to meeting nice interested adopters with Charlie and Rosie. foster home: G.W.

Charlie * 2019 Charlie möchte nur mit seiner Schwester Rosie ins neue Zuhause einziehen. Sie kamen als Abgabekatzen zu uns. Mittlerweile haben sie die Scheu vor fremden Stimmen verloren und fangen an zu spielen. Im neuen Zuhause sollte man die ersten Tage noch Geduld mitbringen, da sie erst einmal etwas unsicher reagieren. Nach der Eingewöhnung sind es richtige Familienkatzen, die sehr gerne schmusen wollen. Fellpflege ist wichtig und das genießen sie auch. Beide Katzen sind kastriert, entwurmt, gechipt und geimpft. Die Pflegestelle freut sich mit Charlie und Rosie auf nette Interessenten.

About Charlie

What life with Charlie looks like

Charlie is a adult maine coon cat waiting at Katzenschutzfreunde Rhein-Ahr-Eifel e.V. in Schalkenbach.

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 Charlie, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Charlie?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Katzenschutzfreunde Rhein-Ahr-Eifel e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Charlie on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Charlie if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Katzenschutzfreunde Rhein-Ahr-Eifel 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Charlie 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 Charlie 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 Katzenschutzfreunde Rhein-Ahr-Eifel e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Charlie 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.
