Perser-Mix * ca. 2023 – hellgrau-getigert – männlich – kastriert Freigänger Verträglichkeit mit Artgenossen noch unbekannt Sonstiges: — im Tierheim seit: 09/2026 Dusty wurde vor längerer Zeit beim Umzug seiner Besitzer einfach unkastriert draußen zurückgelassen und musste sich längere Zeit alleine draußen durchschlagen. Als er dann immer wieder bei einer Frau auf der Terrasse auftauchte und dort mit Futter versorgt wurde, konnte er gesichert und ins Tierheim gebracht werden. Aktuell bekommt er aufgrund einer Verletzung am Augenlid Tropfen und die Kastration und Impfung steht dann noch an. Nähere Infos folgen.

About Dusty

What life with Dusty looks like

Dusty is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Göppingen in Göppingen.

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 Dusty, answered.

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