How do I contact the shelter about Jimmy?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Berner Tierzentrum handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Jimmy on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Jimmy if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Berner Tierzentrum 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 Jimmy 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 Jimmy 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 Berner Tierzentrum early rather than rehoming privately; they know Jimmy 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.

Jimmy

Birman · Male · Adult · 10 years

I am a beautiful, loyal and extremely people-oriented male cat who is looking for his perfect forever home through this route. Unfortunately, I lost my beloved cat companion a year and a half ago. Since then, I have increasingly felt the loneliness - I am simply not made for being alone and miss the company and action in everyday life! Sometimes I am also a little clown, for example, I like to sit in all sorts of things or like to hide/play with various cardboard boxes and much more. This is me: Cuddle World Champion: I love being stroked and cuddled. Evening Enjoyer: My absolute highlight of the day? Our shared cuddle time in the evening. That's when I really come alive and show you how loyal I am. Social & Compatible: I already know other cats and get along well with my fellow felines. Nature Friend: I love my freedom! A home with safe outdoor access is a must for me, so I can explore the neighborhood. What I wish for: I am looking for a loving home with people who have a lot of time for me, value my closeness and never leave me alone again. I would also like to move into a household where there is already another cat that I can orient myself around. Do you want to become my new favorite person and give me the security I so desperately miss? Then get in touch for an introduction! Contact address: Mrs. Nina Zutter, 3203 Mühleberg, Share this post

Rasse: Heilige Birma Farbe: weiss /grau Alter: 10 Jahre Geschlecht: männlich Kastriert: kastriert Verzichtgrund: Katze benötigt ein Gspändli Hallo liebe Katzenfreunde, Ich bin ein wunderschöner, treuer und extrem menschenbezogener Kater, der auf diesem Weg sein perfektes Für-immer-Zuhause sucht. Vor eineinhalb Jahren habe ich leider mein geliebtes Katzen-Gspändli verloren. Seither merke ich immer mehr, dass mir die Einsamkeit zu schaffen macht – ich bin einfach nicht fürs Alleinesein gemacht und vermisse die Gesellschaft und die Action im Alltag! Manchmal bin ich auch ein kleiner Clown, so z.B. Sitze ich gerne in alle möglichen Dinge oder verstecke/spiele gerne auch mit diversen Kartonschachteln und vieles mehr. Das bin ich: Kuschelweltmeister: Ich liebe es, gestreichelt und geknuddelt zu werden. Abend-Geniesser: Mein absolutes Highlight des Tages? Unsere gemeinsame Kuschelzeit am Abend. Da blühe ich so richtig auf und zeige dir, wie treu ich bin. Sozial & verträglich: Ich kenne andere Katzen bereits und verstehe mich gut mit meinen Artgenossen. Naturfreund: Ich liebe meine Freiheit! Ein Zuhause mit sicherem Freigang ist für mich ein absolutes Muss, damit ich die Nachbarschaft erkunden kann. Was ich mir wünsche: Ich suche ein liebevolles Zuhause bei Menschen, die viel Zeit für mich haben, meine Nähe schätzen und mich nie wieder einsam sein lassen. Gerne ziehe ich auch in einen Haushalt, in dem bereits eine andere Katze wohnt, an der ich mich orientieren kann. Möchtest du mein neuer Lieblingsmensch werden und mir die Geborgenheit schenken, die ich so sehr vermisse? Dann melde dich schnell für ein Kennenlernen!

About Jimmy

What life with Jimmy looks like

Jimmy is a small adult birman cat waiting at Berner Tierzentrum in Switzerland.

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 Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.
