Fido

Mixed Breed · Male · Kitten · 4 months

Fido and his six siblings started life with the odds stacked against them: Along with two adult cats, apparently their mothers, they were abandoned in two overly cramped crates in front of Virginia's animal shelter. Because the shelter was already at capacity, Virginia had to temporarily place the seven kittens with a friend for care. However, this was only a temporary solution, so the gang is now back at the shelter - and ready for the next step. Together, Fido and his six siblings are a charming little gang. They play and frolic, are curious and, of course, have a lot of mischief in their heads - just real kittens, with nonsense on their daily agenda. Once they have gained trust, they show their cuddly side: Then they like to snuggle and enjoy the closeness of their humans. The seven are simply lovable little personalities who will bring a lot of life into the house with their playful nature. Now all that's missing for Fido is his own family, where he can stay forever. The little guy shouldn't grow up alone: Either a furry friend of similar age is already waiting for him there, or Fido will bring one of his brothers along. After all, cat life is much more fun - for playing, cuddling and growing up together.

Tierschützerin: Virginia Georgieva geboren: ca. Mai 2026 Geschlecht: männlich Aufenthaltsort: Bulgarien kastriert: nein FIV-Test: negativ FeLV-Test: negativ Handicaps: keine verträglich mit: Kindern: nicht bekannt Katzen: ja Hunden: nicht bekannt Voraussetzungen: KEINE Einzelhaltung nur Wohnungshaltung, KEIN Freigang Balkon oder Terrasse wünschenswert (sofern vorhanden, ist die Sicherung erforderlich) Fido und seine sechs Geschwister starteten mit denkbar schlechten Karten ins Leben: Zusammen mit zwei ausgewachsenen Katzen, allem Anschein nach den Müttern, wurden sie in zwei viel zu engen Transportboxen vor Virginias Tierheim ausgesetzt. Weil das Tierheim damals völlig überfüllt war, musste Virginia die sieben Kitten vorübergehend bei einer Bekannten zur Pflege unterbringen. Dies war jedoch nur eine Übergangslösung, und so ist die Rasselbande nun zurück im Tierheim – und bereit für den nächsten Schritt. Gemeinsam sind Fido und seine sechs Geschwister eine bezaubernde kleine Rasselbande. Sie spielen und toben, sind neugierig und haben natürlich jede Menge Flausen im Kopf – eben echte Katzenkinder, bei denen auch mal Unsinn auf dem Tagesprogramm steht. Haben sie Vertrauen gefasst, zeigen sie ihre verschmuste Seite: Dann wird gerne gekuschelt und die Nähe ihrer Menschen genossen. Die sieben sind einfach liebenswerte kleine Persönlichkeiten, die mit ihrer verspielten Art ordentlich Leben in die Bude bringen werden. Nun fehlt Fido nur noch seine eigene Familie, bei der er für immer bleiben darf. Allein soll der kleine Kerl aber nicht aufwachsen: Entweder wartet dort bereits eine Samtpfote in ähnlichem Alter auf ihn oder Fido bringt einfach einen seiner Brüder mit. Schließlich ist das Katzenleben zu zweit noch viel schöner – zum Spielen, Kuscheln und gemeinsamen Großwerden.

About Fido

What life with Fido looks like

Fido is a large 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 Fido, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Fido?
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 Fido on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Fido 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 Fido 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 Fido 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 Fido 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.
