Flu

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Male Born around 01/2025 Breed: EKH In the shelter since: 11/24/2025 Housing: Outdoor / Indoor Flu was found under a carport in Rahden. He came to our shelter with severe cold and eye inflammation. Flu also had a dental procedure due to Forl at our vet. Unfortunately, he still has some chronic cold left. He is more prone to colds, but the immune system can be supported with many available remedies! Otherwise, Flu is a friendly and rather quiet cat. We only place indoor cats in homes with existing companion animals or another friend. Outdoor cats are only placed in quiet residential areas.

About Flu

What life with Flu looks like

Flu is a small young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Lübbecke in Lübbecke.

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 Flu, answered.

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