How do I contact the shelter about Cosmo (Einzelkater)?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. BMT Tierheim Elisabethenhof handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Cosmo (Einzelkater) on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Cosmo (Einzelkater) if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — BMT Tierheim Elisabethenhof 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 Cosmo (Einzelkater) 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 Cosmo (Einzelkater) 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 BMT Tierheim Elisabethenhof early rather than rehoming privately; they know Cosmo (Einzelkater) and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.

Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?

Adopt Cosmo (Einzelkater)

British Shorthair · Male · Young · 2 years

".Cosmo." is currently still in our quarantine. To arrange a meet-and-greet, we kindly ask you to call us beforehand. .Cosmo. is a charming, sophisticated, and calm tomcat who greatly enjoys the company of humans. At his previous owners, it was noted that he had difficulties with urination. A veterinary examination ultimately revealed that .Cosmo. suffers from bladder oxalate stones, whose treatment is associated with high costs. As a result, he was entrusted to us. During his extended stay at the veterinary clinic, we maintained close communication with the treating veterinarians. Currently, .Cosmo. lives with us and still requires special attention, particularly regarding his urination. He receives special wet food, which he enjoys very much. .Cosmo. is a very affectionate tomcat who thoroughly enjoys cuddles and affection. We would like him to find a quiet home suitable for apartment living with a secured balcony, ideally with cat-experienced people, where he can live as a single cat and receive the full attention of his human companions. It is important that regular veterinary check-ups of his bladder and urine continue to be performed to monitor his condition well and to minimize the likelihood of recurrence.

"Cosmo" ist ein liebenswerter, verschmuster und ruhiger Kater, der die Nähe zu Menschen sehr genießt. Bei seinen früheren Besitzern wurde festgestellt, dass er Schwierigkeiten beim Urinabsatz hatte. Eine tierärztliche Untersuchung ergab schließlich, dass "Cosmo" an Oxalatsteine in der Blase leidet, deren Behandlung mit hohe Kosten verbunden ist. Daraufhin wurde er an uns übereignet. Während seines längeren Aufenthalts in der Tierarztpraxis standen wir in engen Austausch mit den behandelnden Tierärzten. Inzwischen lebt "Cosmo" bei uns und benötigt weiterhin besondere Aufmerksamkeit, insbesondere im Hinblick auf seinen Urinabsatz. Er erhält spezielles Nassfutter, das er sehr gerne frisst."Cosmo" ist ein sehr anhänglicher Kater, der Streicheleinheiten und Zuwendung ausgiebig genießt. Für ihn wünschen wir uns ein ruhiges Zuhause in reiner Wohnungshaltung mit gesichertem Balkon bei katzenerfahrenen Menschen, in dem er als Einzelkater leben und die volle Aufmerksamkeit seiner Menschen bekommen darf. Mit Hunden kennt "Cosmo" das Zusammenleben im Zuhause und würde er würde sich auch sehr über Hundegesellschaft freuen.Wichtig ist, dass regelmäßige tierärztliche Kontrollen von Blase und Urin weiterhin durchgeführt werden, damit seine Erkrankung gut überwacht werden kann und erneute Beschwerden möglichst vermieden werden.
