Adopt Cody

Male · Senior · 12 years

Cody is a large, impressive senior cat, nearly 12 years old. He is in top shape for his age, affectionate, cuddly, and playful. He is sensitive, independent, and easy-going. At first, Cody is somewhat cautious, easily startled, and sensitive to loud noises. He enjoys a quiet and cozy environment, prefers being around calm people, and gets along well with other peaceful cats. He is not used to small children. Cody loves to be petted and is accustomed to going his own way. He knows how to use the cat door and wishes for a home with a garden and a beautiful outdoor area again.

Read original (de)

Cody, ist ein grosser, stattlicher, knapp 12-jähriger Senior. Er ist für sein Alter top fit, ist zutraulich, verschmust und verspielt, ist sensibel, selbstständig und unkompliziert. Zu Beginn ist Cody etwas vorsichtig, schreckhaft und lärmempfindlich. Er mag es ruhig und gemütlich, ist gerne unter ruhigen Menschen und hat mit anderen, friedlichen Katzen keine Probleme. An kleinere Kinder ist er nicht gewöhnt. Cody lässt sich gerne streicheln und ist sich gewöhnt, seinen eigenen Weg zu gehen. Er kennt die Katzentüre und wünscht sich wieder ein Haus mit Garten und schönem Freilauf.

About Cody

What life with Cody looks like

Cody is a large senior cat waiting at Cat-Box Gams in Cat Box.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇨🇭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 Cody, answered.

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