Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 6 years

tomcat Grey, 10 years old, is urgently in need of a new home. Unfortunately, he is being given up for very private reasons. More details gladly in a personal conversation. Grey loves to join in on morning showers and being brushed while in there. He prefers to sleep at the foot of his person's bed. What Grey absolutely needs is a secure balcony. When it comes to food, he is unfortunately one of those who would rather have only dry food. His new home can be with a family that has bigger kids.

Grey liebt es, morgens mit zu duschen und dabei gekämmt zu werden. Am liebsten schläft er bei seinem Menschen am Fußende im Bett. Was Grey unbedingt braucht, ist ein abgesicherter Balkon. Beim Futter ist er leider einer von der Sorte, der am liebsten nur Trockenfutter mag. Sein neues Zuhause darf gerne eine Familie mit größeren Kindern sein. Bei Interesse meldet euch gerne bei Gudrun unter

About Grey

What life with Grey looks like

Grey is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Ibbenbüren in Ibbenbüren.

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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Grey, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Grey?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein Ibbenbüren handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Grey on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Grey if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzverein Ibbenbüren 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Grey 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 Grey 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 Tierschutzverein Ibbenbüren early rather than rehoming privately; they know Grey 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.
