Funghi

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 10 years

My name is Funghi. I am male, neutered, and born in 2015. I have been waiting for a new home since June 2016. This is what my caregivers say about me: Funghi was taken in together with his brother by a friendly organization. After a difficult start phase, both were shy, and then a skin disease occurred, which required a long and expensive treatment. Both have recovered now, and his brother has already been successfully rehomed with one of our former pets. Now Funghi, who has developed into a gentle cuddler in our cat group, is looking for his own happiness, preferably as a second pet. He will need some adjustment time, he is initially shy and cautious. He can later live as an outdoor cat, but since he grew up with us, he is also suitable for apartment living with the appropriate mental stimulation. Funghi is suitable as a first pet, of course with the necessary patience at the beginning. He is not a daredevil and rather gentle and calm, yet appropriately playful for his age. Who wants to spend evenings not watching TV, but rather with the gentle Funghi? We believe that when he feels safe, he will immediately give his heart, if only he gets the chance. Love is created, as is known... The descriptions are impressions and recordings of the animal in our animal shelter and our foster homes. Each animal may develop differently in a new home.

Mein Name ist Funghi. Ich bin männlich, kastriert und 2015 geboren. Ich warte seit Juni 2016 auf ein neues Zuhause. Das sagen meine Betreuer über mich: Funghi wurde gemeinsam mit seinem Bruder von einem befreundeten Verein übernommen. Nach etwas schwieriger Startphase, beide waren scheu, kam eine Hautpilerkrankung dazu, welche eine lange und kostenintensive Behandlung erforderte.Beide sind inzwischen genesen, sein Bruder konnte schon erfolgreich zu einem unserer ehemaligen Schützlinge vermittelt werden. Nun sucht Funghi, der sich in unserer Katzengruppe zu einem sanften schmuser entwickelt hat, sein eigenes Glück, vorzugsweise als Zweittier.Er wird etwas Eingewöhnungszeit benötigen, er ist anfänglich schüchtern und vorsichtig. Gern kann er später als Freigänger leben, da er allerdings bei uns aufgewachsen ist, eignet er sich auch zur reinen Wohnungshaltung mit der entsprechenden Beschäftigung. Funghi ist als Anfängertier geeignet, selbstverständlich mit der erforderlichen Geduld zu Beginn.Er ist kein Draufgänger und eher sanft und ruhig, trotzdem altersentsprechend verspielt. Wer hat Lust, sich abends nicht dem Fernseher zu widmen, sondern eher dem sanften Funghi? Wir glauben, wenn er sich sicher fühlt, wird er umgehend sein Herz verschenken,wenn er nur die Gelegenheit bekommt..die schafft bekanntlich Liebe…. Die Beschreibungen sind Eindrücke und Aufnahmen des Tieres in unserem Tierheim und unserer Pflegestellen. Jedes Tier kann sich im neuen Zuhause anders entwickeln.

About Funghi

What life with Funghi looks like

Funghi is a medium-sized adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Schkortitz in Grimma.

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 Funghi, answered.

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