How do I contact the shelter about Dicker?

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

Can I adopt Dicker if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Lübbersdorf 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 Dicker 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 Dicker 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 Lübbersdorf early rather than rehoming privately; they know Dicker 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.

Dicker

Mixed Breed · Male

Dicker is a male, neutered cat, born approximately in 2021. Unfortunately, we don't know much about him yet, as he has been very reserved and shy so far. Dicker doesn't want to make contact with people right now, so he needs a home with calm and patient people who can give him the time he needs to come out at his own pace. We are convinced that there is much more to him and that with calmness, patience, and trust, he will surely come out of his shell gradually. We can imagine that Dicker would be better off as a single cat and would like to have his people to himself. After a suitable introduction period, he would definitely like to have the opportunity to go outside. We are looking for a quiet home for Dicker, where he can get the time he needs and where everyone can enjoy every small progress. Whoever approaches him with patience and understanding may soon have the chance to get to know the shy cat from his very different side.

DE·Show original

Dicker ist ein männlich kastrierter Kater und wurde ungefähr im Jahr 2021 geboren. Viel wissen wir leider noch nicht über ihn, denn bei uns zeigt er sich bisher sehr zurückhaltend und schüchtern. Dicker möchte aktuell noch nicht so gerne Kontakt zu Menschen und braucht deshalb ein Zuhause bei ruhigen und geduldigen Menschen, die ihm die nötige Zeit geben, in seinem eigenen Tempo anzukommen. Wir sind überzeugt, dass in ihm noch viel mehr steckt und er mit Ruhe, Geduld und Vertrauen sicherlich nach und nach aus sich herauskommen wird. Wir können uns gut vorstellen, dass Dicker als Einzelkatze besser aufgehoben ist und seine Menschen gerne für sich hätte. Nach einer entsprechenden Eingewöhnungszeit möchte er auf jeden Fall die Möglichkeit zum Freigang bekommen. Für Dicker suchen wir ein ruhiges Zuhause, in dem man ihm die Zeit gibt, die er braucht, und sich über jeden kleinen Fortschritt freuen kann. Wer ihm mit Geduld und Verständnis begegnet, bekommt vielleicht schon bald die Chance, den schüchternen Kater von seiner ganz anderen Seite kennenzulernen.
