Karli

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 7 years

After many years of happy cohabitation with his family, Karli suddenly made things difficult. He attacked his humans and bit them significantly. He was taken to the vet, where he was put to sleep. The vet asked if we had a spot open, because Karli is a totally healthy and fit tomcat.

Nach vielen Jahren glücklichen Zusammenlebens mit seiner Familie machte Karli plötzlich Schwierigkeiten. Er griff seine Menschen an und biss diese erheblich. Man brachte ihn zum Tierarzt, um ihn dort einschläfern zu lassen. Der Tierarzt fragte bei uns nach, ob ein Plätzchen frei wäre, denn Karli ist ein total gesunder und fitter Kater. Letschow, im April 2019

About Karli

What life with Karli looks like

Karli is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at Kleiner Gnadenhof e.V. in Schwaan / OT Letschow.

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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Karli, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Karli?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Kleiner Gnadenhof e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Karli on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Karli if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Kleiner Gnadenhof 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Karli 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 Karli 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 Kleiner Gnadenhof e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Karli 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.
