Adopt Eddy

European Shorthair · Male

I am Eddy and I am loving, sensitive, initially reserved and shy – but if you earn my affection with lots of patience, calm, and understanding, you'll have a very special best friend. I am looking for a safe, warm home, with love and security. So far, I haven't had any luck; the world is hard and mean, and sensitive hearts don't have an easy time, which is why a secure balcony would suffice for me; I don't want to go outside anymore. Anyway, I would be very happy if I could move in with you.

Ich heiße Eddy und ich bin lieb, sensibel, zunächst zurückhaltend und schüchtern – aber wenn du dir meine Zuneigung mit viel Geduld, Ruhe und Verständnis erarbeitest, hast du einen ganz eigenen besten Freund. Ich suche ein sicheres, warmes Zuhause, mit Liebe und Geborgenheit. Bislang hatte ich kein Glück, die Welt ist hart und gemein, sensible Herzen haben es nicht einfach, deswegen würde mir ein gesicherter Balkon ganz reichen, raus möchte ich nicht mehr. Jedenfalls, ich würde mich sehr freuen, wenn ich bei dir einziehen könnte. Ich würde gerne wieder einen besten Freund haben und du scheinst

About Eddy

What life with Eddy looks like

Eddy is a adult european shorthair cat waiting at Meine Katzenstation in Rüdersdorf bei Berlin.

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 Eddy, answered.

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