Katzenkinder

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

6 Katzenkinder IT'S NEARLY TIME! The six of us are slowly packing our suitcases and are ready to get to know our new families! The 2 girls and their 4 brothers, who were born on 3 September 2022, can move out from mid-November onward to discover the big wide world. By then they will be dewormed, vaccinated and microchipped. Here is a brief character description of the wild bunch:– Beppo (tabby with white) is the firstborn and the coolest. He loves people and is always the first when it comes to exploring. He got his name from "Beppo the Street Sweeper" in Momo, since he likes to help with sweeping– Findus (tabby with white) thinks carefully about every step before taking it, but during play he drops all his hesitation and is likewise a great explorer. He likes to take Brother Beppo as his role model– Timmi (tabby) was one of the smallest, which you can no longer tell by looking at him today. We believe he will grow into a stately, very handsome tom. He is a wild fellow full of spirit for adventure– Anni (tabby with white) is still the smallest of all, but in her mind she is very grown-up! She knows what she wants and is a determined, wonderfully pretty girl– Hanno and Nanni (white) look almost like twins. They have the same dark little tail and the spot on their right flank. Only the tabby stripes on their heads tell them apart. Hanno is a bit more self-assured than his sister. Nanni loves romping around with Anni. They would make a great adoption team. All 6 will guaranteed be wonderful cuddly tabbies! The little ones are each to be rehomed in pairs, with people who understand that they are making a decision for the next roughly 20 years. Cats are family members who must be well cared for even during holiday periods, whose costs you must be able to afford, and for whom you are willing to prevent hazards in the household (kisruhr.de/…/rund…/g-gefahren-im-haushalt/). The little ones can be accustomed to a friendly dog and other cats. Children aged 10 and up who respect the needs of the furry ones are acceptable. With our protection contract, the new owners commit to neutering once the cats reach 6 months of age. Should a playmate of roughly the same age already live in the new home, separating the siblings would also be possible.

6 Katzenkinder ES IST SO WEIT! Wir sechs packen so langsam unsere Koffer und sind bereit, unsere neuen Familien kennen zu lernen! Die 2 Mädels und ihre 4 Brüder, die am 3. September 2022 geboren wurden, können ab Mitte November ausziehen, um die große weite Welt zu entdecken. Sie sind dann entwurmt, geimpft und gechipt. Hier eine kleine Charakterbeschreibung des wilden Haufens:– Beppo (getigert mit weiß) ist der Erstgeborene und Coolste. Er liebt die Menschen und ist immer der Erste, wenn es ums Entdecken geht. Seinen Namen hat er von „Beppo der Straßenkehrer“ aus Momo, da er gerne beim Fegen hilft– Findus (getigert mit weiß) bedenkt jeden Schritt erstmal bevor er ihn tut, verliert im Spiel aber alle Bedenken und ist ebenfalls ein großer Entdecker. Er orientiert sich gerne an Brüderchen Beppo– Timmi (getigert) war einer der Kleinsten, was man ihm heute nicht mehr ansieht. Wir glauben, dass er mal ein stattlicher, sehr hübscher Kater wird. Er ist ein wilder Bursche voller Abenteuerlust– Anni (getigert mit weiß) ist noch die Kleinste von allen, im Kopf aber gaaaanz groß! Sie weiß was sie will und ist ein durchsetzungsstarkes wunderhübsches Mädchen– Hanno und Nanni (weiß) sehen fast aus wie Zwillinge. Sie haben das gleiche dunkle Schwänzchen und den Fleck an der rechten Flanke. Nur ihre getigerten Striche auf dem Kopf unterscheiden sie. Hanno ist etwas souveräner als seine Schwester. Nanni liebt es mit Anni zu toben. Sie würden ein tolles Vermittlungsteam abgeben. Alle 6 werden garantiert wunderbare Schmusetiger! Die Kleinen suchen jeweils zu zweit ein neues Zuhause bei Menschen, die sich darüber im Klaren sind, dass sie damit eine Entscheidung für die nächsten ca. 20 Jahre treffen. Katzen sind Familienmitglieder, für die auch in Urlaubszeiten gut gesorgt werden muss, die man sich finanziell leisten können muss und für die man bereit ist, Gefahren im Haushalt ( kisruhr. de/…/rund…/g-gefahren-im-haushalt/) zu verhindern. An einen lieben Hund und andere Katzen kann man die Kleinen gewöhnen. Kinder ab 10 Jahre, die die Bedürfnisse der Fellchen respektieren, sind ok. Mit unserem Schutzvertrag verpflichten sich die neuen Besitzer zur Kastration mit Erreichen des 6. Lebensmonats. Sollte bereits ein etwa gleichaltriger Tobekumpel im neuen Zuhause leben, wäre auch eine Trennung der Geschwister möglich

About Katzenkinder

What life with Katzenkinder looks like

Katzenkinder is a large adult mixed breed cat waiting at KIS Ruhr – Katzen in Schwierigkeiten in Bochum.

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 Katzenkinder, answered.

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