Filis

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Tomcat Filis came to us with three other cats from another animal shelter due to a lack of space there. He is approximately 1 year old and came from a private surrender. Filis is very friendly, outgoing, and cuddly. He reacts very sensitively to drafts with sniffles, which should be kept in mind. Filis is very well suited as a second cat. He has only been in a purely apartment-living environment so far. This cat is to be kept indoors only.

DE·Show original

Kater Filis kam zusammen mit 3 weiteren Katzen von einem anderen Tierheim zu uns, da dort Platzmangel herrschte. Er ist ca. 1 Jahr alt und stammt aus einer Privatabgabe. Filis ist sehr lieb, zutraulich und verschmust. Er reagiert auf Zugluft sehr sensibel mit Schnupfen, darauf sollte geachtet werden. Filis ist sehr gut als Zweitkatze geeignet. Er kennt bisher nur die reine Wohnungshaltung.

About Filis

What life with Filis looks like

Filis is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Chemnitz in Chemnitz.

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 Filis, answered.

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