Adopt Konrad

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

Konrad is a real character cat: charming, witty, and loving. He finds people great, but he has to earn the touching. Fellow animals, he needs them desperately. This little adventurer wants to explore the outside world, observe mice, and let the wind blow through his fur. That’s why he needs a proper settling-in period before he gets his freedom. His hind legs sometimes give him trouble because of a strong arthrosis, but he manages wonderfully with the medication Solensia he gets every four weeks. Konrad has a very big wish – a ball roller coaster to play on! He loves this play ride passionately. Whoever wants to win his heart should bring one with them. Konrad is waiting for someone to see him exactly as he is and recognize his virtues: his humor, his strength, his little quirks, and his big heart. Come on over to the animal shelter sometime and get to know our Konrad better. Born on 1.1. This cat needs outdoor access.

Konrad ist ein echter Charakterkater: charmant, witzig und lieb. Menschen findet er klasse, das Anfassen muss man sich aber verdienen. Artgenossen braucht er unbedingt. Dieser kleine Abenteurer möchte die Welt draußen erkunden, Mäuschen beobachten und sich den Wind durchs Fell wehen lassen. Deshalb braucht er unbedingt nach einer entsprechenden Eingewöhnungszeit seinen Freigang. Seine Hinterbeinchen machen ihm wegen einer starken Arthrose manchmal zu schaffen, deshalb bekommt er alle 4 Wochen das Medikament Solensia, womit er super zurechtkommt. Konrad hat einen ganz großen Wunsch – eine Kugel-Achterbahn zum Spielen! Diese Spielbahn liebt er heiß und innig. Wer sein Herz erobern will, bringt am besten gleich eine mit. Konrad wartet darauf, dass jemand genau ihn sieht und seine Vorzüge erkennt: seinen Humor, seine Stärke, seine kleinen Macken und sein großes Herz. Kommen Sie doch einfach mal im Tierheim vorbei und lernen unseren Konrad näher kennen. geb. 1.1.2022, kastriert

About Konrad

What life with Konrad looks like

Konrad is a large adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutzverein SOM e.V. (Tierheim Pfaffengrün) 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 Konrad, answered.

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