Kater

Male

As small shy cats, these two were neutered last year and released back to their finder. Idi Frenz, Am Grubebach 17, 33129 Delbrück. Then came winter, and the neighbor found them sitting at her door, wanting to come inside. The two are now more trusting. They can be picked up and stroked, and they are also clean. One Kater is a bit larger than the other, but they clearly belong together. Unfortunately, they don't get along at all with the three other cats. These protest strongly against it, so the two cannot stay there. Now, the two are looking for a permanent home! Interested parties can get to know them better, Mrs. Frenz, Delbrück TEL.:

Als kleine scheue Katzen wurden diese beiden letztes Jahr von uns kastriert und bei der Finderin wieder frei gelassen. idi Frenz, Am Grubebach 17, 33129 Delbrück Dann kam der Winter und die Nachbarin hatte sie plötzlich vor ihrer Tür sitzen, sie wollten ins Haus. Die beiden sind mittlerweile zutraulich. Sie lassen sich hochnehmen und streicheln, sie sind auch sauber. Ein Kater ist etwas größer als der andere, sie gehören aber offensichtlich zusammen. Leider verstehen sie sich überhaupt nicht mit mit den eigenen drei Katzen. Diese protestieren heftig dagegen, daher können die beiden dort nicht bleiben. Nun suchen die Zwei ein endgültiges Zuhause! Interessenten können sie gerne näher kennenlernen, Frau Frenz, Delbrück TEL.:

About Kater

What life with Kater looks like

Kater is a adult cat waiting at Tierheim Paderborn in Paderborn.

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 Kater, answered.

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