Jerry

European Shorthair · Male

Jerry ID No.: 147041 Breed: EKH Age: 09/2020 Sex: male Housing: Indoor/outdoor cat Neutered: Yes Location: Marbella (Spain) Application form !!!Single cat only!!! This handsome fellow is our Jerry! He was found on the street in summer 2023 with nose injuries and brought to the animal shelter by animal rescuers. His wounds have since healed, and now he's just looking for a home of his own. Jerry doesn't like having other cats around, which of course causes him pure stress at the animal shelter. However, he adores people—though he clearly shows when he'd rather be left alone. Therefore, small children wouldn't be a good fit in his future home. Experienced cat owners, however, can handle this well. He's affectionate and cuddly, but always makes it very clear when he's had enough. We're looking for a home where he'll be the sole boss and where his human has plenty of time for him, as single cats shouldn't be left alone for hours on end each day. So dear can-openers, who has a heart for our tomcat? Jerry is vaccinated, microchipped, neutered, and tested negative for FIV and FeLV. Vaccinations: Yes, plus €85.00 transport fee Contact person: Andrea Mürner Tel: Email:

Jerry ID-Nr: 147041 Rasse: EKH Alter: 09/2020 Geschlecht: männlich Haltung: Wohnung/Freigänger Kastriert/Sterilisiert: Ja Aufenthalt / Ort: Marbella (Spanien) Anfrageformular !!!Einzelkatze!!! Dieser Prachtkerl ist unser Jerry! Er wurde wurde im Sommer 2023 mit Nasenverletzungen auf der Straße gefunden und von Tierschützern in Tierheim gebracht. Die Wunden sind mittlerweile verheilt und jetzt möchte er nur noch ein eigenes Zuhause finden. Denn Jerry mag keine anderen Katzen um sich haben und das ist im Tierheim natürlich purer Stress für ihn. Menschen mag Jerry aber sehr gerne. Allerdings zeigt er auch deutlich, wenn er lieber seine Ruhe möchte. Von daher wären kleine Kinder im zukünftigen Zuhause nicht so gut. Katzenerfahrene Menschen können aber damit gut umgehen. Anhänglich und schmusig ist er, nur sagt er auch klar wann Schluss ist. Wir suchen für ihn ein Zuhause, wo er alleiniger Chef ist und wo der Mensch viel Zeit für ihn hat. Denn Einzelkatzen sollten nicht stundenlang am Tag alleine sein. Also liebe Dosenöffner, wer hat ein Herz für unseren Katermann? Jerry ist geimpft, gechipt, kastriert und negativ auf FIV und FELV getestet. Impfungen Ja Schutzgebühr 200,00€ zzgl. 85,00€ Transportgebühr Ansprechpartner Andrea Mürner Tel: Email: Anfrageformular

About Jerry

What life with Jerry looks like

Jerry is a adult european shorthair cat waiting at Helfende Hände e.V. 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 — 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 Jerry, answered.

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