Herzibert kam als Fundtier zu uns ins Tierheim. Nun sucht der liebevolle Kater ein neues Für-immer-Zuhause. Herzibert ist ein lieber und verschmuster Kater, der die Nähe seiner Menschen sehr genießt. Mit seinem freundlichen und selbstbewussten Wesen weiß er genau, was er möchte, und begegnet seiner Umgebung mit Neugier und Gelassenheit. Hat er Vertrauen gefasst, zeigt er sich als anhänglicher und treuer Begleiter, der gerne Zeit mit seinen Bezugspersonen verbringt. Neben seiner verschmusten Seite ist Herzibert auch verspielt und lebhaft. Er freut sich über abwechslungsreiche Beschäftigung, spannende Spielmöglichkeiten und gemütliche Kuschelstunden. Seine aufgeweckte Art macht ihn zu einem charmanten Mitbewohner, der für viele schöne Momente sorgt. Herzibert ist stubenrein und wünscht sich ein ruhiges Zuhause, in dem er sich sicher und wohlfühlen kann. Zu viel Trubel ist nicht das Richtige für ihn, weshalb wir für ihn ein entspanntes Umfeld suchen. Aus diesem Grund wird Herzibert nicht zu Kindern oder Kleinkindern vermittelt. Ebenso wird er nicht in einen Haushalt mit Hunden vermittelt. Er soll die Möglichkeit haben, in einer ruhigen und stressarmen Umgebung anzukommen und sein neues Zuhause in seinem eigenen Tempo zu genießen. Für Herzibert suchen wir Menschen mit Herz und Verständnis für Katzen, die ihm Geborgenheit, Aufmerksamkeit und ein liebevolles Zuhause schenken möchten. Wer einen freundlichen, selbstbewussten und verschmusten Kater sucht, findet in Herzibert einen wunderbaren Gefährten fürs Leben. Wenn Sie Herzibert ein liebevolles Zuhause schenken möchten, schicken Sie gerne Ihre ausgefüllte Selbstauskunft an (Für die Adresse JavaScript anschalten). 16.06.2026 (kw)

About Herzibert

What life with Herzibert looks like

Herzibert is a adult cat waiting at Hamburger Tierschutzverein in Hamburg.

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 Herzibert, answered.

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