Der Dali

Mixed Breed · Male

Dali is still in Crete too. His foster carer wrote to us: Dali, 6 years old, is looking for a loving home. We took him over in 2022 from Vet Jiannis in Chania. He has ataxia, and he copes very well with it. He even climbs up stairs by hopping. He has a narrowed tear-nasal duct, which is the cause of the tear discharge. The tear fluid does not drain through the tear-nasal duct and instead finds its way over the inner corner of the eye and then down the outside of the face. The so-called brown tear tracks become visible. His temperament: he prefers to be alone; apart from Felix, he does not get along with various other tomcats. He likes to go around the garden 1-2 times a day. He loves intimate cuddle sessions. Sometimes, when he is sleeping deeply, he starts running with his legs. He is microchipped, neutered and vaccinated. A quiet environment would be nice for him.

Auch Dali ist noch auf Kreta. Seine Pflegestelle schrieb uns: Dali, 6 Jahre sucht ein liebevolles zuhause Wir haben ihn 2022 vom vet Jiannis in chania übernommen. Er hat Ataxi, kommt sehr gut damit klar. Er hüpft sogar treppen hoch. Er hat einen verengter Tränen-Nasen-Kanal die Ursache für Tränenausfluss. Die Tränenflüssigkeit läuft nicht über den Tränen-Nasen-Kanal ab und sucht sich stattdessen den Weg über den inneren Augenwinkel und anschließend außen am Gesicht hinab. Die sogenannten braunen Tränenstraßen werden sichtbar. Sein Wesen: am liebsten ist er alleine, ausser mit Felix kommt er nicht mit verschiedenen Katern klar. Er macht gerne am Tag mal 1-2 Runden durch den Garten. Er liebt innige kuscheleinheiten. Was er manchmal hat, wenn er fest schläft fängt er mit den Beinen an zu rennen. Er ist gechipt, kastriert und geimpft Für ihn wäre eine ruhige Umgebung schön. Bei Interesse an Dali schreiben Sie uns bitte unter Wir kümmern uns, das der Kater schnell nach Deutschland kommt

About Der Dali

What life with Der Dali looks like

Der Dali is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Leise-Pfoten e.V. in Germany.

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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Der Dali, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Der Dali?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein Leise-Pfoten e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Der Dali on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Der Dali if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzverein Leise-Pfoten e.V. 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Der Dali 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 Der Dali 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 Tierschutzverein Leise-Pfoten e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Der Dali 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.
