Jupiter

Male

Jupiter was caught with several other kittens in a small garden. At the animal shelter, Jupiter is still quite shy and not used to making contact with people. Jupiter gets along well with other cats, and a pre-existing cat should already be living in his new home. Jupiter wants to be let out again in his new home. This cat needs outdoor access.

DE·Show original

Jupiter wurde mit weiteren Jungkatzen in einem Kleingarten eingefangen. Im Tierheim zeigt sich Jupiter noch recht schüchtern, den Kontakt zu Menschen ist er nicht gewohnt. Mit anderen Katzen ist er gut verträglich und eine bereits vorhandene Katze sollte bereits in seinem neuen Zuhause leben. Jupiter möchte in seinem neuen Zuhause wieder Freigang bekommen.

About Jupiter

What life with Jupiter looks like

Jupiter is a adult cat waiting at Tierheim Braunschweig in Braunschweig.

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 Jupiter, answered.

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