Detlef

Mixed Breed · Male · Kitten · 3 months

Unser Detlef sucht endlich sein eigenes Zuhause! Er wurde am 26.06.2026 im Tierheim geboren. Er ist ein lustiger kleiner Gnom, dem derzeit die Gesellschaft anderer Katzen sichtlich fehlt. Auch menschliche Zuneigung genießt er sehr. Auch, wenn Detlefs Mutter eine EKH ist, gehört er aufgrund der Faltohren zu den Qualzuchten. Bei weiteren Fragen, was dies für Sie bedeutet, melden Sie sich gerne bei uns. WICHTIG: Detlef hat chronischen Schnupfen, auf typische Katzenschnupfenerreger wurde er jedoch negativ getestet. Wir vermitteln Kitten nicht in Einzelhaltung! Detlef kann nur auf Termin kennengelernt werden.

About Detlef

What life with Detlef looks like

Detlef is a small kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Bad Kreuznach in Bad Kreuznach.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇩🇪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 Detlef, answered.

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