Kater

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

Falco, a handsome red-and-white Kater born in 07/2023, is looking for a new home. He is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, and has tested negative for FIV/leukemia. Falco is very playful and needs plenty of stimulation. He is extremely people-oriented and wants to be involved in everything going on around him. The household should not have small children, and his new caregiver should have sufficient experience with cats. Falco has already been through a lot of hardship and sometimes reacts to hands and their movements. He can get excited and frantic during feeding time. With other cats, he remains calm and non-aggressive. Above all, Falco needs a home where he will be granted outdoor access. Who would like to visit him?

Falco, hübscher rot-weißer Kater, geb. 07/2023, sucht ein neues Zuhause. Er ist kastriert, gechipt, geimpft und negativ auf FIV/Leukose getestet. Falco ist sehr verspielt und möchte beschäftigt werden. Er ist sehr menschbezogen und will am liebsten überall dabei sein. Im Haushalt sollte es keine kleinen Kinder geben, und der neue Dosenöffner sollte über ausreichend Katzenerfahrung verfügen. Falco hat schon viel Schlechtes erlebt und reagiert zuweilen auf Hände und deren Bewegung. Bei der Fütterung ist er manchmal hektisch und aufgeregt. Gegenüber anderen Katzen reagiert er ruhig und nicht aggressiv. Falco sucht auf jeden Fall ein Zuhause, wo ihm Freigang gewährt wird. Wer möchte ihn besuchen? Bitte melden unter 1520/6336122 (

About Kater

What life with Kater looks like

Kater is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Schwetzingen und Umgebung 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 Kater, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Kater?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein Schwetzingen und Umgebung e.V. 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 — Tierschutzverein Schwetzingen und Umgebung 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 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 Tierschutzverein Schwetzingen und Umgebung e.V. 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.
