Manni

European Shorthair · Male · Kitten

Manni! The little red-and-white cat is lively, very people-oriented and just plain funny. As befits a red cat, he has a lot of whims behind his little ears. Manni is looking for a home with one of his cat buddies or with a similarly old cat with the later option for outdoor access. He would be very happy with a lot of attention and many stroking hands.

DE·Show original

Frech, frecher, Manni! Der kleine rot-weiße Kater zeigt sich munter, sehr menschenbezogen und einfach lustig. Wie es sich für einen roten Kater gehört, hat er ganz viele Flausen hinter seinen kleinen Öhrchen. Manni sucht ein Zuhause mit einem seiner Katzenkumpels oder zu einer ähnlich alten Katze mit der späteren Option zum Freigang. Über viel Aufmerksamkeit und viele streichelnde Hände, würde er sich sehr freuen.

About Manni

What life with Manni looks like

Manni is a kitten european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Bochum in Bochum.

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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Manni, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Manni?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Bochum handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Manni on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Manni if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Bochum 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Manni 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 Manni 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 Tierheim Bochum early rather than rehoming privately; they know Manni 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.
