Ivo

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Senior · 18 years

Ivo is an older young tomcat (born around 2008) who has been roaming the vineyards for the past three-quarters of a year. At some point in his past, he had a home; he wore an old, rather tight flea collar, and his teeth were no longer in the best condition. He has a tattoo, unfortunately unregistered... if no owner comes forward through this, he is looking for a cozy new home. He loves his round cushion and good food. Cuddling isn't quite his thing yet, but it surely will be.

DE·Show original

Ivo ist ein älteres Katerchen (ca. 2008 geb), das sich im letzten dreiviertel Jahr im Rebland rumgeschlagen hat. Irgendwann in seiner Vergangenheit hatte er mal ein Zuhause, er trug ein altes, recht enges Flohhalsband und seine Zähnchen waren nicht mehr ganz so in Schuß. Er hat eine Tätowierung, die leider nicht registriert ist…. wenn sich auf diesem Wege kein Besitzer findet, sucht er eine gemütliche neue Bleibe. Er liebt sein rundes Kissen und gute Kost. Kuscheln ist noch nicht so seins, wird aber bestimmt noch.

About Ivo

What life with Ivo looks like

Ivo is a senior mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Baden-Baden in Baden-Baden.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇩🇪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 Ivo, answered.

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