Felix Barney

Mixed Breed · Male · Kitten · 11 months

Felix and Barney were found by Madalina near her home. It was February and deep snow lay on the streets. The two small cats were completely on their own and had to somehow get by in the middle of winter. Whether they were abandoned or actually spent their first months on the street is unknown. The only thing that is certain is that for two such young cats, the icy cold was anything but a safe place to grow up. Fortunately, Madalina discovered the two and took them in. Felix and Barney are two brothers who just make good mood. Both are very affectionate and enjoy when someone takes time for them and strokes them. Other cats are no problem for the two - they just make friendly contact and play together soon. The brothers have the most fun together. They like to play together, chase a toy and can wonderfully occupy themselves with each other. It is easy to see how nice it is for them to have each other. The winter in which they were found is hopefully only a distant memory for Felix and Barney. At Madalina, the two have now learned how nice it is to be cared for, to play, to cuddle and just to be safe. That's exactly what we wish them now for their further life - together with people who love their two little cat hearts just as much as we do.

Tierschützerin: Mădălina Militaru geboren ca.: September 2025 Geschlecht: männlich Aufenthaltsort: Rumänien kastriert: ja FIV-Test: negativ FeLV-Test: negativ Handicaps: keine verträglich mit: Kindern: nicht bekannt Katzen: ja Hunden: nicht bekannt Voraussetzungen: gemeinsame nur Wohnungshaltung, KEIN Freigang Balkon oder Terrasse wünschenswert (sofern vorhanden, ist die Sicherung erforderlich) Felix und Barney wurden von Madalina in der Nähe ihres Zuhauses gefunden. Es war Februar und tiefer Schnee lag auf den Straßen. Die beiden kleinen Kater waren ganz auf sich allein gestellt und mussten mitten im Winter irgendwie durchkommen. Ob sie ausgesetzt wurden oder ihre ersten Lebensmonate tatsächlich auf der Straße verbracht haben, wissen wir nicht. Fest steht nur: Für zwei so junge Katzen war die eisige Kälte alles andere als ein sicherer Ort zum Aufwachsen. Zum Glück entdeckte Madalina die beiden und nahm sie bei sich auf. Felix und Barney sind zwei Brüder, die einfach gute Laune machen. Beide sind sehr lieb, menschenbezogen und genießen es, wenn jemand sich Zeit für sie nimmt und sie streichelt. Auch andere Katzen sind für die beiden überhaupt kein Thema – da wird einfach freundlich Kontakt aufgenommen und schon bald miteinander gespielt. Am meisten Spaß haben die Brüder natürlich miteinander. Sie spielen gerne zusammen, jagen einem Spielzeug hinterher und können sich wunderbar miteinander beschäftigen. Dabei merkt man einfach, wie schön es für die beiden ist, einander zu haben. Der Winter, in dem sie gefunden wurden, ist für Felix und Barney hoffentlich nur noch eine ferne Erinnerung. Bei Madalina haben die beiden inzwischen erfahren, wie schön es ist, umsorgt zu werden, zu spielen, zu kuscheln und einfach sicher zu sein. Genau das wünschen wir ihnen nun auch für ihr weiteres Leben – gemeinsam mit Menschen, die ihre beiden kleinen Katerherzen genauso liebhaben wie wir.

About Felix Barney

What life with Felix Barney looks like

Felix Barney is a puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Glücksnasen e.V. Tierschutzverein in Germany.

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. 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 Felix Barney, answered.

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