Hermann - EKH-Mix

European Shorthair · Male · Adult · 7 years

Hermann - male, neutered, born circa 2019, arrived at the shelter on 5/17/2026. Hermann came to us in mid-May 2026 after spending several months with his finders. Upon arrival, he was generally in good condition but needed some broken teeth removed. His severely bent and scarred ears suggest a tough life behind him, likely involving fights with other cats. In the cat house, Hermann behaves peacefully towards other cats. However, humans cause him great discomfort. He is extremely shy and appears tense when people are near. We are looking for his(her) human(s), who has/have a lot of patience and a home where Hermann will be accepted as he is. A quiet home with later outdoor access would be ideal for him. It should be noted that Hermann probably won't become a tame cuddly cat. Alternatively, we also envision an "release site" for Hermann, where he will receive care and supervision and can decide how close to come to people or let them approach him.

Geboren: ca.2019 im Tierheim seit: 17.05.2026 männlich , kastriert Hermann kam Mitte Mai 2026 zu uns, nachdem er mehrere Monate bei seinen Findern verbracht hatte. Bei der Ankunft war er insgesamt in guter Verfassung, musste aber einige abgebrochene Zähne entfernen lassen. Seine stark verkrümmten und vernarbten Ohren deuten darauf hin, dass er ein hartes Leben hinter sich hat, wahrscheinlich mit Auseinandersetzungen mit anderen Katern. Im Katzenhaus verhält sich Hermann gegenüber anderen Katzen friedlich. Menschen bereiten ihm jedoch großes Unbehagen. Er ist extrem scheu und wirkt angespannt, wenn Menschen in seiner Nähe sind. Wir suchen seine(n) Menschen, mit viel Geduld hat und einem Zuhause, wo man Hermann so akzeptiert, wie er ist. Ein ruhiges Zuhause mit späterem Freigang wäre ideal für ihn. Es ist zu beachten, dass Hermann vermutlich nicht zu einem zahmen Schmusekater wird. Alternativ stellen wir uns auch einen "Auswilderungsplatz" für Hermann vor, wo er versorgt und betreut wird und selbst entscheiden darf, wie nah er den Menschen kommen oder sie an sich heranlassen möchte.

What life with Hermann - EKH-Mix looks like

Hermann - EKH-Mix is a large adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Dingolfing-Landau e.V. / Tierheim Quellenhof Passbrunn in Dingolfing.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Hermann - EKH-Mix, answered.

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