Chopper

Mixed Breed · Female

When the little Chopper came to us at the animal shelter, we hoped that his condition would improve with modern medicine through an operation, so he could be rehomed and live a normal cat life. But no, he is what is known as an ataxie cat, meaning he is disabled. However, it does seem that he feels comfortable at the moment, in the cat room together with a young kitten. He cannot be rehomed, but people can adopt him as a patron and visit and stroke him as often as they like. The typical movement of the disabled cat is always a bit hectic and jerky, and he rarely sits calmly and enjoyably on someone's lap. But being stroked is something he also really enjoys.

Als der kleine Chopper zu uns ins Tierheim kam hofften wir noch, dass sein Zustand dank der heutigen Medizin mit einer Operation besser wird. Er soll doch vermittelt werden und ein normales Katzenleben führen können. Aber nein, er ist eine sogenannte Ataxiekatze, d.h. er ist behindert. Jedoch hat man schon den Eindruck, dass er sich momentan, im Katzenzimmer zusammen mit einer jungen Kätzin wohlfühlt. Er kann jedoch nicht vermittelt werden. Gerne können Menschen eine Patenschaft für ihn abschließen und ihn so oft wie möglich besuchen und streicheln. Die typische Art der Bewegung der behinderten Katze ist immer etwas hektisch und ruckartig, er wird selten ruhig und genussvoll auf dem Schoß eines Menschen sitzen. Aber gestreichelt werden findet auch er super. Nur Patenschaft

About Chopper

What life with Chopper looks like

Chopper is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Feucht in Feucht.

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 Chopper, answered.

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