Adopt HERMAN

Male · Adult · 5 years

For HERMAN, since March 2022, Frau G. Herrmann, who contacted us via email, has taken over a permanent sponsorship. The sponsorship was transferred from Albus, who passed away in August 2021. Our animal protection work is only meaningful with the people on site, and we are particularly pleased that the locals are becoming active and having their cats neutered. One of our local contacts wrote to us in mid-January about his neighbor A., who takes in strays. She got in touch with us, and we have gladly helped with the neutering procedures. HERMAN is one of these cats. He appeared alone at A's house last September and received his name from a German friend of A's mother. HERMAN is still quite shy and prefers to hide in the sofa, but thanks to his godmother, Frau Herrmann, the little fellow no longer needs to worry about his future. Many thanks for that.

Für Herman hat seit März 2022 Frau G. Herrmann, die uns per E-Mail kontaktierte, eine Dauerpatenschaft übernommen. Die Patenschaft wurde von Albus übertragen, der im August 2021 verstarb. Sinnvoll ist unsere Tierschutzarbeit nur mit den Menschen vor Ort und so freut es uns besonders, dass die Einheimischen selbst aktiv werden und ihre Katzen kastrieren lassen. Einer unserer einheimischen Kontakte schrieb uns Mitte Januar von seiner Nachbarin A., die Streuner aufnimmt. Sie nahm Kontakt mit uns auf und wir haben mehr als gern bei den Kastrationen mit angepackt. Herman ist eine dieser Katzen. Er tauchte letzten September allein an A.s Haus auf und erhielt seinen Namen nach einem deutschen Freund von A.s Mutter. Herman ist noch recht scheu und verkriecht sich am liebsten im Sofa, aber dank seiner Patin Frau Herrmann braucht das Kerlchen sich nicht mehr um seine Zukunft sorgen. Vielen Dank dafür. ♥

About HERMAN

What life with HERMAN looks like

HERMAN is a adult cat waiting at Cats at Andros e.V. 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting HERMAN, answered.

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