Emilio

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 8 years

Emilio and his brother Luigi were adopted from a shelter years ago. Unfortunately, their owner has since passed away. The husband continued to care for the two cats. Fate struck again when he also passed away. After that, the cats came to the mother of the former owner, who couldn't properly care for them. Emilio is looking for a permanent home either in a large apartment with a connected balcony or with outdoor access in a quiet residential area. Emilio is a very sweet, affectionate, and attached cat.

Emilio und sein Bruder Luigi wurden vor Jahren zusammen aus einem Tierheim adoptiert. Ihre Besitzerin verstarb leider inzwischen. Der Ehemann kümmerte sich weiterhin um die beiden Kater. Das Schicksal schlug wieder zu, als auch er verstarb. Danach kamen die Kater zur Mutter der ehemaligen Besitzerin, die sich aber nicht richtig um die Kater kümmern konnte. Emilio wünscht sich ein endgültiges Zuhause entweder in einer großen Wohnung mit vernetztem Balkon oder auch mit Auslauf in ruhiger Wohnlage. Emilio ist ein sehr lieber, verschmuster und anhänglicher Kater. eher nicht

About Emilio

What life with Emilio looks like

Emilio is a large adult mixed breed cat waiting at Katzenschutzverein Karlsruhe e.V. 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. 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 Emilio, answered.

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