Domenico

European Shorthair · Male · Adult · 9 years

Domenico is a 1-year-old male black and white domestic shorthair cat. He was found as a stray and brought to the shelter. Domenico is friendly and full of energy, but he has a history of illness. He was diagnosed with FIP and had a long recovery. Thanks to GS therapy, he is now healthy and full of life. He loves to play and run around, but also enjoys taking naps. He is looking for a new home with more space and a similar-aged cat to play with. A family with children, apartment living with a secure balcony or traffic-calmed outdoor access would be perfect. Contact Anja Kalisch to meet our little bundle of energy.

geboren um zu leben Status: offen Name: Domenico Rasse: EKH Geschlecht: männlich/kastriert Farbe: schwarz weiß Alter: 1 Jahr Verträglich mit: Artgenossen Domenico ist ca 1 Jahr alt und wurde uns als Fundtier übergeben. Der junge Kater ist absolut freundlich und weiß im Moment zum Glück nicht wohin mit seiner Energie! Das freut uns alle sehr, denn das war nicht immer so – kurz nachdem Domenico zu uns kam, ist der Jungkater schwer an der FIP erkrankt und es ging ihm lange Zeit nicht gut. Dank der GS-Therapie ist Domenico nunmehr (mit Diplom!) genesen und er ist lebensfroh wie zuvor! Herumflitzen und herumtollen und den Artgenossen im Zimmer mit seinem Übermut gehörig auf die Nerven gehen, das ist sein Tagesprogramm! Plötzliche Schlafanfälle lassen ihn dann in die Hängematte sinken, nur um kurz darauf ausgeruht weiter die Zimmergesellen aufzumischen. Wunschzuhause: Kurzum: Domenico ist dringend auf der Suche nach einem neuen Zuhause mit mehr Platz und einem ähnlich alten Bestandskameraden, mit dem er gemeinsam sämtlichen Katzen-Blödsinn machen kann, der einem nur einfällt! Eine nette Familie, gern mit Kindern, Wohnungshaltung mit gesichertem Balkon oder verkehrsberuhigter Freigang wäre ein perfektes Zuhause! Kontakt: Wer möchte unser kleines Energiebündel kennenlernen?

About Domenico

What life with Domenico looks like

Domenico is an adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierschutzverein 7 Gebirge e.V. — Orscheider Hof 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 Domenico, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Domenico?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein 7 Gebirge e.V. — Orscheider Hof handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Domenico on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Domenico if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzverein 7 Gebirge e.V. — Orscheider Hof 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 Domenico 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 Domenico 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 7 Gebirge e.V. — Orscheider Hof early rather than rehoming privately; they know Domenico 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.
