Adopt Giesbert

Male

Hmm. Alright, let me think… You are… wait, help me out here: Petra? Claudia? Julia? Andrea? Uh… Peter? Jürgen? Yeah, I have no idea what human gender that fits, I'm a tomcat, you human, you know best what your name is, you have the advantage there. But about me: I am Giesbert and I know that very well. Under different circumstances, I would be very shy and you would need a lot of patience for me to even eat treats from your hand. But since you seem somehow likable to me, I thought I might as well introduce myself.

Mmmmh. Gut, lass mal überlegen… Du bist… warte, hilf mir kurz: Petra? Claudia? Julia? Andrea? Öh… Peter? Jürgen? Ja, keine Ahnung zu welchem Menschengeschlecht das passt, Ich bin ein Kater, du Mensch, du weißt am besten wie du heißt, da bist du im Vorteil. Aber zu mir: Ich bin Giesbert und das weiß ich sehr genau. Unter anderen Umständen wäre ich sehr scheu und du bräuchtest sehr viel Geduld mit mir, dass ich dir überhaupt Leckerlies aus der Hand esse. Aber da du mir irgendwie sympathisch bist, dachte ich mir, dass ich mich wenigsten vorstellen könnte. Was ich mir auch vorstellen könnte wäre b

About Giesbert

What life with Giesbert looks like

Giesbert is a adult cat waiting at Meine Katzenstation in Rüdersdorf bei Berlin.

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 Giesbert, answered.

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