How do I contact the shelter about Leo?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Look-Tierschutzverein Deutschland e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Leo on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Leo if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Look-Tierschutzverein Deutschland 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 Leo 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 Leo 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 Look-Tierschutzverein Deutschland e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Leo 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.

Leo

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Adult · 4 years

Leo was found as a kitten in a car and brought to a foster home. Since then, he has been patiently waiting for a home – but unfortunately, it's particularly difficult for him as a black tomcat and he hasn't received any inquiries yet. Leo is a friendly tomcat who enjoys socializing with his fellow animals. He loves playing with other cats, running around, and hanging out with them. Leo is initially shy towards strangers, but since he especially likes chicken and fish, he is very easy to tempt. Once the ice is broken, a loving cuddle cat emerges who adores sleeping in bed with you. Leo wishes for a home with an existing cat of a similar character, or alternatively, he would be happy bringing a kitty companion from his foster home. Leo is strictly an indoor cat. Windows and balconies, if any, must be securely cat-proof in his new home. The soft-paw prefers to go to his new home dewormed, vaccinated, microchipped, and neutered. Possible at own cost price 180 Euros (including transport box). Look-animal welfare association Deutschland e.V.

DE·Show original

Leo wurde als Kitten in einem Auto gefunden und in eine Pflegestelle gebracht. Hier wartet er seitdem geduldig auf ein Zuhause – doch leider hat er es als schwarzer Kater besonders schwer und hatte bislang noch nicht eine einzige Anfrage. Leo ist ein freundlicher Kater, der einen sozialen Umgang mit seinen Artgenossen pflegt. Er liebt es, mit anderen Katzen zu spielen, herumzutoben und mit ihnen gemeinsam abzuhängen. Fremden Menschen gegenüber ist Leo zunächst schüchtern. Da der Kater aber besonders gerne Huhn und Fisch frisst, ist er sehr leicht zu bestechen. Ist der Bann gebrochen, kommt ein anhänglicher Kuschelkater zum Vorschein, der es liebt, mit im Bett zu schlafen. Leo wünscht sich ein Zuhause mit vorhandener Katze mit ähnlichem Charakter oder bringt alternativ auch gern einen Katzenkumpel aus seiner Pflegestelle mit. Leo ist eine reine Wohnungskatze. Fenster und ggf. Balkon müssen in seinem neuen Zuhause katzensicher vernetzt sein. Die Samtpfote zieht entwurmt, geimpft, gechipt und kastriert in sein neues Zuhause. möglich zum Selbstkostenpreis 180 Euro (inklusive Transportbox) Look-Tierschutzverein Deutschland e.V. ©

About Leo

What life with Leo looks like

Leo is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Look-Tierschutzverein Deutschland e.V. in Hamburg.

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.
