Hunter

European Shorthair Β· Unknown Β· Adult Β· 6 years

Hunter came to us at our shelter with Hera, Havanna, Hades, Hula, Hazel, and Selina. All the cats had to be treated for diarrhea or sniffles. Some of them have already moved into the cattery or found a new home. Hunter is very fixated on Hazel and can always be found where she is. Through his outgoing nature, Hunter quickly comes out of his shell and gets closer to people. Unfortunately, both had to fight with sniffles for a long time and may be more susceptible to them in the future. We are looking for a home for Hazel and Hunter where they can live together with a yard in a loving home. Hunter should get the chance to blossom, and we think that Hazel gives him the necessary courage and stability to overcome his fears. Other cats that already live in the new home are no problem, and children are welcome. This cat needs outdoor access.

DEΒ·Show original

Hunter kam zusammen mit 8 weiteren Katzen aus suboptimaler Haltung zu uns ins Tierheim. Alle Katzen mussten wegen Durchfall oder Schnupfen behandelt werden. Einige von ihnen konnten bereits ins Katzenhaus umziehen oder haben schon ein neues Zuhause gefunden. Hunter ist sozial mit anderen Katzen und nimmt sich allmΓ€hlich die zutraulichen zum Vorbild. Dadurch geht auch er inzwischen schneller aus sich heraus. Leider hatte er lange mit Schnupfen zu kΓ€mpfen und kΓΆnnte dadurch auch in Zukunft anfΓ€lliger sein. Wir suchen fΓΌr Hunter ein gemeinsames Zuhause mit Freigang bei lieben Menschen. Hunter soll dort die Chance bekommen, aufzublΓΌhen und seine Scheu abzulegen. Andere Katzen, die schon im neuen Zuhause leben, sind kein Problem. Auch Kinder sind willkommen.

About Hunter

What life with Hunter looks like

Hunter is an adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Quellenhof Passbrunn 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 β€” every cat decides for themselves when a new home counts as home.

πŸ‡©πŸ‡ͺAdopting 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 Hunter, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Hunter?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Quellenhof Passbrunn handles screening and the adoption contract directly β€” TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Hunter on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Hunter if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad β€” 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Hunter 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 β€” ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Hunter isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work β€” that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Tierheim Quellenhof Passbrunn early rather than rehoming privately; they know Hunter 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 β€” 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.
