Dennis

Mixed Breed · Male

Male, age unknown, born around 2017 or later. Dennis came to us as a stray and has not been reported missing so far. However, he may have been deliberately abandoned, as several health issues surfaced here at the animal shelter: his teeth required treatment, he has an old injury in one eye requiring eye drops twice daily—a routine he now accepts quite willingly—and a mild heart murmur was detected, which currently doesn’t need treatment but must be monitored and regularly checked. Dennis is an exceptionally affectionate tomcat who loves both people and food equally; however, he should keep an eye on maintaining his slender figure. We hope to find him a quiet home as an indoor-only cat with a secure balcony where he can simply enjoy lying in the sun on nice days.

DE·Show original

Männlich, Alter unbekannt, geboren ab ca. 2017. Dennis kam als Fundtier zu uns und wurde bisher nicht vermisst. Vielleicht wurde er aber auch absichtlich „verloren“, denn hier im Tierheim stellten sich ein paar gesundheitliche Zipperlein heraus, die Zähne mussten gemacht werden, an einem Auge hat er eine alte Verletzung und benötigt deswegen zweimal täglich Augentropfen, was er mittlerweile brav machen lässt. Auch an seinem Herz wurde ein leichtes Geräusch festgestellt, was aktuell nicht behandelt, aber im Auge behalten und kontrolliert werden muss. Dennis ist ein super lieber Kater, findet Menschen und Essen gleich toll, sollte aber etwas auf seine schlanke Linie achten. Wir wünschen uns für ihn ein eher ruhiges Zuhause als reine Wohnungskatze mit gesichertem Balkon, wo man bei schönem Wetter einfach auch mal in der Sonne liegen kann.

About Dennis

What life with Dennis looks like

Dennis is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Wiesloch-Walldorf in Walldorf.

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 Dennis, answered.

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