Marian

European Shorthair · Male · Young · 1 year

Über mich Marian wurde mit seinen Geschwistern (Marta und Michel) bei uns im Tierheim abgegeben. Sie wurden in Willingshausen gefunden. Die Dreierbande war anfangs sehr schüchtern, jedoch fanden die Brüder schnell den Zugang zu uns Menschen. Er ist mittlerweile auch verschmust und macht es richtig toll! Marian ist mittlerweile ein wilder kleiner Feger geworden. Er tobt durchs Zimmer und will neugierig die Welt entdecken. Er sucht einen Kumpel mit dem er toben und raufen kann. Marian hat viel Energie und holt sich seine Kuscheleinheiten beim Menschen auch immer wieder ab. Der quirlige Typ ist sehr sozial und lieb zu anderen Artgenossen. Sollte er doch alleine von uns weg adoptiert werden, dann sollte im neuen Zuhause ein lieber, etwa gleichaltriger Artgenosse auf ihn warten, der gerne rauft und durch die Welt tobt! Er wird nicht in Einzelhaltung vermittelt! Marian hatte einen Termin in der Augenklinik Staufenberg um die Reaktionsverzögerung der Pupille seines re. Auges abklären zu lassen. Aber man merkt ihm nicht an, dass er Probleme mit dem Sehen hat. Er hat eine leichte Vorstufe des grauen Stars, weshalb er Spezialtropfen bekommt. Man kann dies leider nicht aufhalten oder heilen, aber stark entgegenwirken. Nähere Infos kann Ihnen dann gern unsere Tierärztin Frau Hirschmann bei Interesse geben. Marian sollte die Möglichkeit des Freigangs erhalten dürfen. Hier sollte das Zuhause sehr verkehrsarm liegen aufgrund seines leichten Handicaps. Am besten wäre hier eine Ortsrandlage. Möchten Sie Marian und seine Clique kennenlernen? Das wünsche ich mir

About Marian

What life with Marian looks like

Marian is a small young adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Alsfeld in Germany.

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

Frequently asked

Adopting Marian, answered.

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