Damon

European Shorthair · Male

It's feeding time again or… oh…aha, uh, hello! I am… hmm, not really much of a talker, but that’s because I spend most of my time alone, which is really exhausting. But, where are my manners: Damon is my name and I’m trying to find my way in this world, though it’s not easy for a shy cat. Actually, I’m quite sociable, but mostly with other cats. So, you should definitely have a sociable companion animal, which would be very important to me.

Ist wieder Futterzeit oder… oh… aha, äh, hallo! Ich bin… mmh, eigentlich nicht so der große Redner, aber das liegt daran, dass ich die meiste Zeit allein bin, was wirklich anstrengend ist. Aber, wo bleiben meine Manieren: Damon ist mein Name und ich versuche mich in dieser Welt zurecht zu finden, was aber für eine scheue Katze nicht so einfach ist. Dabei bin ich eigentlich ganz gesellig, aber eben bislang eher mit anderen Katzen. Du solltest also unbedingt ein geselliges Partnertier haben, das wäre mir sehr wichtig. Aber, wie bereits gesagt, bin ich Menschen gegenüber sehr vorsichtig und zurüc

About Damon

What life with Damon looks like

Damon is a large adult european shorthair cat waiting at Meine Katzenstation in Rüdersdorf bei Berlin.

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 Damon, answered.

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