Lino

Mixed Breed · Male · Kitten · 4 months

Our cute Lino is a charming young tomcat who, at first, like cats do, wants to survey the situation and prefers to look at the world from above. In the spirit of "always keep an overview," he will snuggle and purr with his human as soon as he finds everything okay. The sweet Lino simply wants to decide the how and when. Cat lovers know what I mean. The plush paws have been in an apartment-friendly situation so far, but we can imagine that he wouldn’t object to a free-range option either. Lino lives in foster care with Kitty, but the two don’t necessarily have to be rehomed together. This cat needs outdoor access. This cat is to be kept indoors only.

DE·Show original

Unser hübscher Lino ist ein liebenswertes Katerchen, das anfänglich, ganz nach Katzenmanier erst einmal die Lage sondieren möchte und sich die Welt gerne von oben ansieht. Ganz nach dem Motto “immer die Übersicht behalten”! Findet die Fellnase alles okay, kuschelt und schnurrt er mit seinem Menschen um die Wette. Der süße Lino möchte eben das wie und wann selbst bestimmen. Katzenfreunde wissen, was gemeint ist. Das Samtpfötchen war bisher in Wohnungshaltung, wir können uns aber vorstellen, dass er auch gegen einen Freigang nichts einzuwenden hätte. Lino lebt in der Pflegefamilie mit Kitty , die beiden müssen aber nicht zwingend zusammen vermittelt werden.

About Lino

What life with Lino looks like

Lino is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Tierhilfe Franken e.V. in Lauf.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇩🇪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 Lino, answered.

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