Dicky & Micky

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

Micky and Dicky, born in May 2023, are two handsome brown-striped brothers with white undersides who not only look like a great duo optically but also have a very special bond with each other. When the two came to us, their insecurity was clearly written on their faces. The surrender and the great change in their lives initially threw them off balance. Shortly thereafter, it became apparent that they apparently brought a virus with them that broke out due to the stress of the move and has left both of them physically quite energetic. For a long time, they had to be lovingly cared for and well-fed. But during this time, Micky and Dicky built a lot of trust with their people. Today, as they are on a very good path to recovery, they show more and more what wonderful tomcats they are inside. Dicky is a real little fighter. Although the most of the overcome illness is still visible on him – a swollen eye and sometimes wheezing breathing, which has already improved significantly – he has long found his life’s courage again. He loves to play, is curious, and full of energy. His brother Micky also likes to play, but he also likes to observe the happenings from a raised place. He has a rather quiet character and enjoys keeping everything in his sight. Both tomcats are extremely cuddly. When they are picked up, they trustingly snuggle up to the neck and enjoy the closeness of their people. However, their relationship with each other is particularly touching: they cuddle with each other, give each other support, and spend a lot of time side by side. Observing the two together is simply golden. That is why we would like to place Micky and Dicky together. They have already endured so much together and their close bond is something very special. For the two, we wish for a loving, understanding home where they can continue to feel at home and receive many cuddles. After an appropriate settling-in period, they would also like to enjoy the possibility of going out again. Write to us simply. As soon as we receive your message, we will get back to you as soon as possible. Please give us one to two days for a response. This cat needs outdoor access.

Micky und Dicky, geboren im Mai 2023, sind zwei hübsche braun-getigerte Brüder mit weißer Unterseite, die nicht nur optisch ein tolles Duo abgeben, sondern auch eine ganz besondere Bindung zueinander haben. Als die beiden zu uns kamen, stand ihnen die Verunsicherung deutlich ins Gesicht geschrieben. Die Abgabe und die große Veränderung in ihrem Leben hatten sie zunächst aus der Bahn geworfen. Kurz darauf zeigte sich, dass sie offenbar einen Virus mitgebracht hatten, der durch den Stress des Umzugs ausgebrochen war und beide gesundheitlich stark mitgenommen hat. Über längere Zeit mussten sie liebevoll umsorgt und aufgepäppelt werden. Doch genau in dieser Zeit haben Micky und Dicky viel Vertrauen zu ihren Menschen aufgebaut. Heute, da sie sich auf einem sehr guten Weg der Besserung befinden, zeigen sie immer mehr, was für wundervolle Kater in ihnen stecken. Dicky ist ein echter kleiner Kämpfer. Obwohl bei ihm noch am meisten von der überstandenen Erkrankung zu sehen ist – ein geschwollenes Auge und zeitweise röchelnde Atmung, die sich aber bereits deutlich gebessert haben – hat er seinen Lebensmut längst wiedergefunden. Er liebt es zu spielen, ist neugierig und voller Tatendrang. Sein Bruder Micky spielt ebenfalls gerne mit, beobachtet das Geschehen aber ebenso gerne entspannt von einem erhöhten Platz aus. Er hat einen eher ruhigen Charakter und genießt es, alles im Blick zu behalten. Beide Kater sind ausgesprochen verschmust. Werden sie auf den Arm genommen, schmiegen sie sich vertrauensvoll an den Hals und genießen die Nähe ihrer Menschen. Besonders rührend ist jedoch ihre Beziehung zueinander: Sie kuscheln miteinander, geben sich gegenseitig Halt und verbringen viel Zeit Seite an Seite. Die beiden gemeinsam zu beobachten, ist einfach goldig. Deshalb möchten wir Micky und Dicky unbedingt zusammen vermitteln. Sie haben bereits so viel gemeinsam durchgestanden und ihre enge Bindung ist etwas ganz Besonderes. Für die beiden wünschen wir uns ein liebevolles, verständnisvolles Zuhause, in dem sie weiterhin ankommen dürfen und viele Streicheleinheiten bekommen. Nach einer entsprechenden Eingewöhnungszeit möchten sie auch wieder die Möglichkeit zum Freigang genießen. Schreiben Sie uns einfach.Sobald wir Ihre Nachricht erhalten haben, werden wir uns so schnell wie möglich bei Ihnen melden.Bitte haben Sie Verständnis dafür, dass wir uns nicht immer umgehend melden können.Bitte geben Sie uns ein bis zwei Tage Zeit für eine Rückmeldung.

About Dicky & Micky

What life with Dicky & Micky looks like

Dicky & Micky is a large young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutz Euskirchen 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. 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 Dicky & Micky, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Dicky & Micky?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutz Euskirchen e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Dicky & Micky on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Dicky & Micky if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutz Euskirchen 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Dicky & Micky 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 Dicky & Micky 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 Tierschutz Euskirchen e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Dicky & Micky 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.
