Fips

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Fips is a three-and-a-half-year-old male cat born in 2023. He has a beautiful black-and-white coat that gives him a distinctive appearance. Fips is a single cat who has been kept as an indoor cat so far, but this does not suit his nature. He is a sweet and affectionate cat who enjoys playing and being entertained. He can get along with other cats in his immediate environment, but he prefers to have all the attention to himself.

Ich suche ein schönes, neues Zuhause Fips männlich2023 geboren Einzelkater, eher keine Wohnungskatzelieb und verschmust Fips ist ein dreieinhalb Jahre alter Kater mit einem schönen, schwarz-weiß-gezeichneten Fell, das ihm ein unverwechselbares Aussehen verleiht. Er wurde bisher als reine Wohnungskatze gehalten, was aber eher nicht seinem Naturell entspricht. Fips ist ein lieber und verschmuster Kater, der gerne spielt und beschäftigt werden möchte. Auf Artgenossen in seiner direkten Umgebung kann er gut verzichten - er hat lieber die volle Aufmerksamkeit auf seiner Seite.

About Fips

What life with Fips looks like

Fips is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Vereinigung für Katzenschutz Nürnberg-Fürth 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 Fips, answered.

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