How do I contact the shelter about Luigi?

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

Can I adopt Luigi if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Seelenkatzen 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 Luigi 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 Luigi 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 Seelenkatzen e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Luigi 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.

Luigi

Mixed Breed · Male

Luigi, a male neutered cat, born around 2018, is looking for a forever home. He is very social with other cats and people, and is open and fearless around humans. He has no known disabilities. I am happy you found my ad. I am Kitty Luigi. Little is known about my past. I wandered the streets of the city. I thought someone would eventually notice me and rescue me from the streets. It was very dangerous with all the cars, so I was very happy when a kind person took me in for care. Although I lived on the streets, I immediately felt safe and at home in the apartment. I am really glad I am no longer on the streets. Here at my foster home, I show myself to be very social and loving. I get along well with the other cats and enjoy being petted. I am a very grateful cat who really wants a real home. In my future home, I would love to have a feline friend. I could also bring someone from my foster home with me and we would move in together if you don't have a cat yet. I am neutered, have had my initial vaccinations against cat flu and distemper, have been dewormed and de-fleaed, and will receive a microchip and rabies vaccination when I travel to you. I will also be tested for FIV and FeLV. You can read all of this in my EU pet passport. Then my caregiver will contact you. See you soon! Your Luigi

Standort: Rumänien, Orastie Geschlecht: männlich, kastriert Geboren: etwa 2018 Charakter: sehr sozial Artgenossen gegenüber. Keine Einzelhaltung! Menschen gegenüber offen und ohne scheu. Handicap: keins Schön, dass du auf meine Anzeige aufmerksam geworden bist. Ich bin das Katerchen Luigi. Von meiner Vorgeschichte weiß man wenig. Ich stromerte in der Stadt auf den Straßen umher. Ich dachte mir, irgendwann muss doch mal jemand auf mich aufmerksam werden und mich von der Straße retten. Es war wirklich gefährlich mit all den Autos und daher war ich sehr glücklich, als mich eine nette rau bei sich zur Pflege aufnahm. Obwohl ich auf der Straße lebte, habe ich mich in der Wohnung sofort wohl und sicher gefühlt. Ich bin wirklich froh, nicht mehr auf der Straße zu sein. Hier auf meiner Pflegestelle zeige ich mich sehr sozial und lieb. Ich verstehe mich gut mit den anderen Katzen und lasse mich auch gern streicheln. Ich bin einfach ein sehr dankbares Katerchen, das sich so sehr ein richtiges Zuhause wünscht. In meinem künftigen Zuhause möchte ich unbedingt einen Katzenfreund haben. Ich könnte auch jemanden von meiner Pflegestelle mitbringen und wir ziehen dann gemeinsam zu dir, wenn du noch keine Katze hast. Ich bin kastriert, habe auch schon meine Erstimpfungen gegen Katzenschnupfen und -seuche erhalten, bin entwurmt und entfloht und wenn ich zu dir reise erhalte ich noch einen Mikrochip und eine Tollwutimpfung. Auch werde ich noch auf FIV und FelV getestet. Das kannst du dann alles in meinem EU-Heimtierausweis nachlesen. Dann wird sich meine Vermittlerin bei dir melden. Bis ganz bald! Dein Luigi

About Luigi

What life with Luigi looks like

Luigi is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Seelenkatzen e.V. in Barsinghausen.

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.
