Mario

Mixed Breed · Male

Mario was found severely injured on the street. He was taken to a veterinary clinic and operated on. The surgery was successful and Mario has recovered well. Given his short life in freedom, also because he is so adventurous and agile, Mario should get a home with outdoor access in a quiet residential area. Mario is a sweet cuddly little cat. Very curious, playful and jealous. He does not like other cats. Probably due to living on the street

DE·Show original

Mario wurde schwer verletzt auf der Straße gefunden. Er wurde in eine Tierklinik gebracht und operiert. Die OP verlief erfolgreich und Mario hat sich prima erholt. Mario sollte durch das kurze Leben in Freiheit, auch weil er so unternehmungslustig und agil ist, ein Zuhause mit Auslauf in ruhiger Wohnlage bekommen. Mario ist ein liebes verschmustes Katerchen. Sehr neugierig, verspielt und eifersüchtig. Artgenossen mag er nicht. Vermutlich durch das Leben auf der Straße nein

About Mario

What life with Mario looks like

Mario is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Katzenschutzverein Karlsruhe e.V. 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. 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 Mario, answered.

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