Findus & Balu

European Shorthair · Male · Young · 1 year

So beschreibt sie das bisherige Zuhause:Findus und Balu sind zwei kleine Kater, die noch sehr verspielt sind. Findus ist etwas schüchterner. Beide werden gern gestreichelt. Balu auch gerne gekuschelt, Findus eher nicht so. Balu ging früher auch gerne baden, das wurde aktuell aber weniger. Es sind wirklich 2 sehr liebe Kater die gerne wieder ein Zuhause hätten, wo sie sich wohlfühlen.

About Findus & Balu

What life with Findus & Balu looks like

Findus & Balu is a young adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierzuflucht in Austria.

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 Austria

Austrian shelters follow the federal Tierschutzgesetz framework: adopters sign a Schutzvertrag (protection contract) committing to the animal's welfare. Spay/neuter, microchip, and vaccinations are included; fees typically range €150–€350.

Frequently asked

Adopting Findus & Balu, answered.

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