Klößchen

European Shorthair · Male · Senior · 11 years

Unser Klößchen sucht Menschen mit Geduld und Herz Manchmal braucht es einfach den richtigen Menschen. Vielleicht bist genau du das für unser Klößchen. Der etwa 11-jährige Tigerkater musste sich vor einiger Zeit von seinem geliebten Menschen verabschieden und kam anschließend gemeinsam mit einer Katzendame zu uns ins Tierheim. Schnell zeigte sich jedoch, dass Klößchen lieber Einzelprinz ist und seine vier Wände nicht mit anderen Tieren teilen möchte. Klößchen ist ein Kater mit Charakter. Er entscheidet selbst, wann er Nähe möchte oder doch lieber Abstand benötigt. Wer ihm die Zeit gibt, Vertrauen zu fassen und seine Grenzen respektiert, gewinnt einen treuen Mitbewohner mit ganz eigenem Charme. Deswegen wünschen wir uns für Klößchen ein ruhiges Zuhause ohne andere Tiere und ohne Kinder. Hektik und Stress sind nichts für ihn – er braucht Menschen, die ihn einfach so akzeptieren, wie er ist. Leider wartet unser Schützling schon viel zu lange auf seine zweite Chance. Dabei wünschen wir uns so sehr, dass auch ein älterer Kater noch einmal erfahren darf, wie es sich anfühlt, anzukommen und geliebt zu werden. Wer schenkt unseren charakterstarken Senior endlich das ruhige Zuhause, auf das er so lange wartet? Meldet euch bei uns per Mail

About Klößchen

What life with Klößchen looks like

Klößchen is a small senior european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheimverein Erfurt in Germany.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇩🇪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 Klößchen, answered.

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