Edi

European Shorthair · Male · Kitten

Edi is a male, neutered EKH-Mix cat, estimated to be around 2 years old. He was found in the RS animal shelter on October 8, 2026. Edi is a loving and affectionate cat who can be shy and cautious at first. Once he trusts you, he shows his loving side and enjoys cuddles and attention from his humans. If he becomes overwhelmed, he can also show his boundaries. We are looking for a quiet home for Edi with understanding people who can give him some time to settle in. He needs a lot of affection, but also the opportunity to retreat and enjoy his peace and quiet. Edi can live as a single cat if his humans are at home a lot and have enough time for him. Alternatively, we can also imagine a home with a loving and social second cat to share his daily life with. If you are interested in Edi, please send us an email with a contact phone number.

Name: Edi Geschlecht: männlich kastriert Rasse: EKH-Mix Geburtsdatum: unbekannt, geschätzt ca. 2 Jahre Grund des Tierheimaufenthalts: Fundkater im Tierheim RS seit: 8.10.2026 Gesundheitlich eingeschränkt: nein Beschreibung:Edi ist ein lieber und verschmuster Kater, der anfangs noch etwas scheu und vorsichtig sein kann. Hat er jedoch einmal Vertrauen gefasst, zeigt er seine liebevolle Seite und genießt Streicheleinheiten und die Aufmerksamkeit seiner Menschen sehr. Wenn es ihm zu viel wird, kann er aber auch seine Grenzen zeigen. Für Edi wünschen wir uns ein ruhiges Zuhause bei verständnisvollen Menschen, die ihm anfangs etwas Zeit zum Ankommen geben. Er braucht viel Zuwendung, aber auch die Möglichkeit, sich zwischendurch zurückzuziehen und seine Ruhe zu genießen. Edi kann als Einzelkater leben, wenn seine Menschen viel Zuhause sind und ausreichend Zeit für ihn haben. Alternativ können wir uns auch ein Zuhause mit einer lieben und sozialen Zweitkatze vorstellen, mit der er seinen Alltag teilen kann. Bei Interesse an Edi senden Sie uns gerne eine E-Mail mit einer erreichbaren Telefonnummer an

About Edi

What life with Edi looks like

Edi is a kitten european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Remscheid in Remscheid.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇩🇪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 Edi, answered.

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