Magnus

European Shorthair · Male · Kitten · 4 months

&; Magnus – a little tiger searching for his forever home. Magnus is a handsome tabby EKH tomcat born on April 24, 2026, at our animal shelter. Together with his sisters Michaela and Magnolia, he’s growing up here and now eagerly awaits the day when he can explore the big world outside the shelter. At the moment, Magnus still shows a bit of shyness. He prefers to observe new people and situations calmly before he starts to trust them. That’s why we’d like to find him a home without small children—a place where he can take all the time he needs to settle in at his own pace. Magnus hasn’t been neutered yet and can later be placed either as an indoor cat—preferably with supervised outdoor access—or as an outdoor cat. Very important: Magnus will not be placed in solitary confinement. A young kitten needs a suitable companion to play, romp, cuddle, and grow up together. Therefore, Magnus will either move in with a sibling or another kitten of similar age. If you give Magnus the time and patience he deserves, you’ll be thrilled to see how this little tiger develops and gradually builds up trust. &; If you’re seriously interested, we’d be happy to arrange a meet-and-greet appointment by calling . &; What’s important for all kittens: Kittens don’t belong alone. They need a suitable companion with whom they can play, wrestle, cuddle, and gain essential social experiences. That’s why none of our kittens are ever placed in solitary confinement. Later on, they can live indoors—preferably with supervised outdoor access—or, after proper acclimatization, as free-roaming cats. Anyone considering adopting a kitten should also keep in mind: A kitten means time, responsibility, plenty of engagement—and of course, costs. These little ones want to discover their world, need play and attention, and deserve to be lovingly raised into confident, self-assured individuals.

&; Magnus – kleiner Tiger auf der Suche nach seinem Für-immer-Zuhause Magnus ist ein hübscher getigerter EKH-Kater , der am 24.04.2026 bei uns im Tierheim geboren wurde. Gemeinsam mit seinen Schwestern Michaela und Magnolie wächst er hier auf und wartet nun darauf, die große Welt außerhalb des Tierheims kennenzulernen. Aktuell zeigt sich Magnus noch etwas schüchtern . Neue Menschen und Situationen möchte er zunächst in Ruhe beobachten, bevor er Vertrauen fasst. Deshalb wünschen wir uns für ihn ein Zuhause ohne kleine Kinder , in dem er die Zeit bekommt, die er braucht, um in seinem eigenen Tempo anzukommen. Magnus ist noch nicht kastriert und kann später sowohl als Wohnungskatze – gerne mit gesichertem Freigang – als auch als Freigänger vermittelt werden. Ganz wichtig: Magnus wird nicht in Einzelhaltung vermittelt. Ein Katzenkind braucht einen passenden Artgenossen zum Spielen, Toben, Kuscheln und gemeinsamen Aufwachsen. Daher zieht Magnus entweder gemeinsam mit einem Geschwisterchen oder zu einem anderen gleichaltrigen Kitten . Wer Magnus die nötige Zeit und Geduld schenkt, darf gespannt sein, wie sich der kleine Tiger entwickelt und Schritt für Schritt Vertrauen fasst. &;&; Bei ernsthaftem Interesse vereinbaren wir gerne einen Kennenlern-Termin unter Telefonnummer . &; Was für alle Kitten wichtig ist Kitten gehören nicht alleine groß. Sie brauchen einen passenden Artgenossen, mit dem sie spielen, raufen, kuscheln und wichtige soziale Erfahrungen sammeln können. Deshalb werden alle unsere Katzenkinder nicht in Einzelhaltung vermittelt . Sie können später in Wohnungshaltung, gerne mit gesichertem Freigang, oder – nach entsprechender Eingewöhnung – als Freigänger leben. Wer sich für ein Katzenkind entscheidet, sollte außerdem bedenken: Ein Kitten bedeutet Zeit, Verantwortung, Beschäftigung und natürlich auch Kosten. Die Kleinen möchten ihre Welt entdecken, brauchen Spiel und Aufmerksamkeit und sollen liebevoll zu selbstbewussten

About Magnus

What life with Magnus looks like

Magnus is a large puppy/kitten european shorthair cat waiting at Wally-Bangert-Tierheim Lohr am Main in Germany.

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 Magnus, answered.

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