How do I contact the shelter about Diego?

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

Can I adopt Diego if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Brandenburg an der Havel 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 Diego 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 Diego 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 Brandenburg an der Havel early rather than rehoming privately; they know Diego 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.

Diego

Mixed Breed · Female

Attention. An urgent announcement. The small Diego would like to be picked up from the animal shelter. The small Diego please... Diego doesn't like to play and live with the other cats, and because they scare him, they will be chased away right away (not that anyone gets the idea of wanting to be his friend?! That's not going to happen). No, Diego prefers a life as an only child and relaxes in his own room. Two-legged beings are better for him, they are observed from a safe distance and with support, and he may even be scolded multiple times for safety's sake... starting a conversation can't hurt, and when the coast is clear and the human has proven himself, then - yes, then a real Diego can snuggle and play exuberantly, showing when he's had enough. It just takes cat understanding... otherwise anyone could come. So: Where are you grown-up two-legged beings (without little people and furry creatures) who will fulfill my heart's desire: a personal creative circle in a quiet environment and later walks and patrols through the home garden? I saw the light of day around 2019, am well-maintained: vaccinated, neutered, microchipped and thus absolutely ready to leave. Your Diego.

"Achtung. Eine dringende Durchsage. Der kleine Diego möchte bitte aus dem Tierheim abgeholt werden. Der kleine Diego bitte.... Diego spielt und wohnt nicht gern mit den anderen Katzen und weil sie ihm unheimlich sind, werden sie lieber gleich ganz verjagt (nicht, dass noch einer auf die Idee kommt, sein Freund werden zu wollen?! Soweit kommt’s noch). Nee, da zieht Diego ein Leben als Einzelkind vor und chillt in seinem eigenen Zimmer. Zweibeiner sind ihm da schon lieber, die werden erstmal mit Sicherheitsabstand und Rückendeckung beobachtet, sicherheitshalber mehrfach angemauzt …. ein Gespräch beginnen kann ja nicht schaden und wenn dann die Luft rein ist und sich Mensch bewährt hat, dann - ja dann kann ein echter Diego sogar schmusen und ausgelassen spielen, wobei er zeigt wenn er genug hat. Es braucht eben Katzenverstand… sonst könnte ja schließlich jeder kommen. Also: Wo seid ihr ausgewachsene Zweibeiner (ohne kleine Menschen und Fellkinder) die mir meinen Herzenswunsch erfüllen: Einen eigenen Schaffenskreis in ruhigem Umfeld und mit späteren Spazier- und Streifgängen durch den heimischen Garten? Ich erblickte etwa 2019 das Licht der Welt, bin checkheft gepflegt: geimpft, kastriert, gechipt und somit absolut auszugsbereit. Euer Diego" Hier gehts zum Bewerbungsformular. ©Tierschutzverein Brandenburg an der Havel e.V. Unsere .V.

About Diego

What life with Diego looks like

Diego is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Brandenburg an der Havel in Brandenburg.

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.
