Gatuso

Male · Adult · 7 years

Hello, I am Gatuso, as a found cat, I came here to the animal shelter, and since no one misses me, I am now looking for a new home. I am a sweet and slightly grizzled fellow. At first, I am a bit reserved, but that quickly dissipates once I get to know the person. Since I am a bit more shy, a home with small children wouldn't be for me, as that would be too much for me. I get along well with cats, so a nice second cat wouldn't be a problem for me. After my settling-in period, I would like to become an outdoor cat again, as I came from outdoors and would miss nature otherwise. So, if my interest has been piqued, feel free to contact my foster parents at the animal shelter.

Hallo, ich bin Gatuso, als Fundkater kam ich hier ins Tierheim und da mich keiner vermisst, suche ich nun ein neues Zuhause. Ich bin ein lieber und verschmuster Kerl. Am Anfang bin ich etwas zurückhaltend, was sich aber schnell in Luft auflöst, wenn ich die Person erst einmal kennengelernt habe. Da ich etwas schüchterner bin, wäre ein Zuhause mit kleinen Kindern nichts für mich, denn das wäre mir zu viel. Mit Katzen verstehe ich mich gut, weshalb eine nette Zweitkatze für mich kein Problem wäre. Nach meiner Eingewöhnungszeit würde ich gerne wieder Freigänger werden, da ich von draußen komme und mir sonst die Natur sehr fehlen würde. Also, wenn ich Euer Interesse geweckt habe, dann meldet Euch doch gerne bei meinen Pflegern im Tierheim. Euer Gatuso

Frequently asked

Adopting Gatuso, answered.

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