Finn

European Shorthair · Male · Adult · 5 years

Hallöchen,Ich bin der Finn. In schlechtem Zustand wurde ich auf der Straße gefunden und ins Tierheim gebracht. Jetzt suche ich ein neues Herrschaftsgebiet!Ich bin ein sehr freundlicher und verschmuster Kater. Ich lasse mich gerne streicheln und durchkraulen, außerdem freue ich mich über Spieleinheiten.Mit anderen Katzen bin ich nicht verträglich:Gesundheitlich zeige ich mich mittlerweile unauffällig. Bei meiner Ankunft hatte ich Giardien, gegen die wurde ich behandelt und negativ getestet. Außerdem hatte ich Schnupfen, der ist gut ausgeheilt und ich habe bereits mehrere Wochen keine Symptome mehr. Ein wenig zunehmen darf ich noch und ich bin noch eher schlecht bemuskelt.Ich war so schmutzig, dass ich gebadet werden musste, ein wenig verfärbt ist mein Fell noch, das wird sich auswachsen.Ich suche ein Zuhause als Einzelprinz ohne andere Tiere, bei lieben Menschen die gerne Zeit mit mir verbringen möchten. Kinder sollten schon größer sein.Willst du mir ein Zuhause schenken?Ich belohne dich mit ganz vielen Kuschelstunden, versprochen!Dein Finn

About Finn

What life with Finn looks like

Finn is a adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierschutzverein St. Pölten in St. Pölten.

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 Finn, answered.

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