Entei

Male · Adult · 4 years

Entei Tier-ID: 1103 At the animal shelter since 26.03.2026 (Current Interested Parties: 0) Entei is a found kitten whose background we unfortunately do not know. However, much suggests that he previously lived as an outdoor cat. At first, Entei was rather shy and reserved. Over time, however, he has become friendlier. This development shows that he can build trust and enjoy proximity with patience and calm. Even in a new home, one should expect that Entei will initially hide or withdraw. He needs time to feel safe and to settle in. If given this time, he will gradually warm up. For Entei, we wish for a understanding home that allows him to settle at his own pace and to give him free roam again in a quiet setting after the adjustment period. He is a seasoned character and should therefore be with cat enthusiasts who can interpret cat language. Therefore, a family with small children would be less suitable.

Entei Tier-ID: 1103 Im Tierheim seit 26.03.2026 (Aktuelle Interessenten: 0) Entei ist ein Fundkater, dessen Vorgeschichte wir leider nicht kennen. Vieles spricht jedoch dafür, dass er zuvor als Freigänger unterwegs war. Zu Beginn zeigte sich Entei eher schüchtern und zurückhaltend. Mit der Zeit ist er jedoch immer freundlicher geworden. Diese Entwicklung zeigt, dass er mit Geduld und Ruhe Vertrauen fassen und Nähe genießen kann. Auch in einem neuen Zuhause sollte man damit rechnen, dass Entei sich zunächst versteckt oder zurückzieht. Er braucht Zeit, um sich sicher zu fühlen und anzukommen. Gibt man ihm diese Zeit, wird er Schritt für Schritt auftauen. Für Entei wünschen wir uns ein verständnisvolles Zuhause, das ihm die Möglichkeit gibt, in seinem eigenen Tempo anzukommen, und ihm nach der Eingewöhnung wieder Freigang in ruhiger Lage ermöglichen kann. Er ist ein verschmuster Charakterkopf und sollte daher zu Katzenkennern, die Katzensprache deuten können. Daher ist eine Familie mit kleinen Kindern eher ungeeignet. Nachtrag: Entei ist mittlerweile sehr aufgeschlossen und umgarnt Besucher um sich ausgiebig und gerne seine Schmuseeinheiten abzuholen. Er kann diese allerdings auch schonmal abrupt beenden, sodass er möglichst zu Katzenkennern und nicht zu kleinen Kinder vermittelt werden sollte. Es kann natürlich sehr gut sein, dass sich dieses Verhalten in seinem neuen Zuhause legt, wenn er sich dort ohne weitere Artgenossen entspannen und ankommen kann. Zurück

About Entei

What life with Entei looks like

Entei is a adult cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Lippstadt und Umgebung 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 Entei, answered.

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