How do I contact the shelter about Gino?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Vereinigung der Katzenfreunde e.V. (deutscher Katzenschutzbund) handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Gino on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Gino if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Vereinigung der Katzenfreunde e.V. (deutscher Katzenschutzbund) 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 Gino 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 Gino 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 der Katzenfreunde e.V. (deutscher Katzenschutzbund) early rather than rehoming privately; they know Gino 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.

Gino

Mixed Breed · Male

Gino is one of the biggest and most beloved tomcats at the cat shelter. Everyone loves him and his clumsy ways. He’s very food-motivated, people-oriented, and absolutely adores playing. At the moment, we cannot rehome him yet for various reasons. He gets along well with our gentle Panther Pitti, who urgently needs a home. Born autumn 2021 Friendly, playful, and people-oriented.

Alle lieben ihn und seine unbeholfene Art. Er ist sehr gefräßig, menschenbezogen und spielt unheimlich gerne. Zur Zeit können wir ihn aus unterschiedlichen Gründen noch nicht vermitteln. Er versteht sich gut mit unserem sanften Panther Pitti, der dringend ein Zuhause sucht.

About Gino

What life with Gino looks like

Gino is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Vereinigung der Katzenfreunde e.V. (deutscher Katzenschutzbund) 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.
