Herbert

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 8 years

Liebe Katz & Co. Freunde, Kater Herbert möchte Hallo sagen und auf diesem Weg ein schönes, neues Zuhause finden. Herbert ist ca. 8 Jahre alt, kastriert, geimpft und gechipt. Er möchte unbedingt wieder Freigang haben und kommt gut mit Hunden zurecht. Mit anderen Katzen funktioniert das Zusammenleben hingegen nicht so gut. Zu seinen Menschen hat Herbert ein inniges Verhältnis. Er kuschelt und schmust sehr gerne. Wollt ihr Herbert kennenlernen? Meldet euch bei Katz & Co. per WhatsApp unter 144805. Bis bald.

About Herbert

What life with Herbert looks like

Herbert is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tiernothilfe Katz & Co. Frielendorf 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 Herbert, answered.

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