About Hermes (und Cosmo)

What life with Hermes (und Cosmo) looks like

Hermes (und Cosmo) is a adult british shorthair cat waiting at TierQuarTier Wien in Vienna.

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 Austria

Austrian shelters follow the federal Tierschutzgesetz framework: adopters sign a Schutzvertrag (protection contract) committing to the animal's welfare. Spay/neuter, microchip, and vaccinations are included; fees typically range €150–€350.

Frequently asked

Adopting Hermes (und Cosmo), answered.

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