Elric

European Shorthair · Male · Young · 3 years

Update August 2026 Elric taut immer mehr auf. Seine anfängliche Schüchternheit, die er zunächst mit Fauchen zu überspielen versucht hat, legt sich langsam. Vorsichtige Annäherungsversuche lässt er inzwischen zu und beginnt, die Streicheleinheiten vorsichtig zu genießen. Für Elric können wir uns sowohl ein Zuhause in Wohnungshaltung als auch mit Freigang vorstellen. Wichtig sind dabei geduldige Menschen, die ihm die nötige Zeit geben, Vertrauen zu fassen und in seinem eigenen Tempo anzukommen. April 2026 Die fünf Kater Freyzer, Nox, Velan, Elric und Mr. Rey sind fünf sichergestellte Kater, die noch sehr scheu sind und sich derzeit nicht anfassen. Sie suchen Menschen mit Geduld, die sie nehmen wie sie sind ohne Druck auszuüben. Eine Erstkatze ist ein Muss, da sie alle sehr sozial sind und sich im besten Falle an einem souveränen Artgenossen orientieren könnten. Natürlich können aber auch zwei von ihnen gemeinsam ausziehen. Mehr Informationen folgen, sobald wir die Bande näher kennengelernt haben.

About Elric

What life with Elric looks like

Elric is a young adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Northeim.

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 Elric, answered.

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