Marley &#8211

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Marley is being surrendered because his people are moving abroad and he cannot or should not go with them. In the meantime, he had found a new home with two loving cats, but we, contrary to what his previous people said and reported, have realized that he does not get along with cats at all. Now, he is waiting for foster care until he finds a new home without cats. Marley is a people-oriented, loving, and open companion. He is interested, cuddly, and gets along well with fellow animals. He also enjoys the company of children. He needs people who can attend to his needs and help him without overwhelming him. He still needs training in basic manners, and he needs to perfect his alone time and leash walking. Attending dog training classes would be ideal. He would also be a good fit for a family with children. Marley is vaccinated, microchipped, and ready for rehoming. If you are interested in our dogs and would like to meet them informally, please apply using the button below, and we will get in touch with you as soon as possible. We appreciate your understanding if it takes a little longer to process your inquiry. We do our best to respond as soon as possible, but it may happen that we receive many inquiries or that our resources are temporarily needed elsewhere.

DE·Show original

Marley wird abgegeben, weil seine Menschen auswandern und er nicht mitgehen kann und soll. Zwischenzeitlich hätte er ein neues Zuhause mit zwei lieben Katzen gefunden, allerdings haben wir, entgegen der Aussagen und Angaben seiner früheren Menschen, feststellen müssen, dass er sich ganz und gar nicht mit Katzen versteht. Nun wartet er auf einer Pflege auf ein neues Zuhause, ohne Katzen. Marley ist ein menschenbezogener, lieber und aufgeschlossener Weggefährte. Er ist interessiert, verschmust und versteht sich gut mit Artgenossen. Auch Kinder mag er gerne. Er braucht Menschen, die auf seine Bedürfnisse eingehen und ihn fördern, aber nicht überfordern. Er braucht noch Training in der Grunderziehung, das Alleinebleiben und Leinenlaufen muss er noch perfektionieren. Ideal wäre der Besuch einer Hundeschule. Gerne auch zu einer Familie mit Kindern. Marley wird geimpft, gechippt, mit Schutzvertrag und gegen eine Schutzgebühr von CHF 600.– vermittelt. Falls Sie Interesse an unseren Hunden haben und sie unverbindlich kennenlernen möchten, bewerben Sie sich mit untenstehenden Button und wir werden uns baldmöglichst mit Ihnen in Verbindung setzen. Wir danken für Ihr Verständnis, falls die Bearbeitung Ihrer Anfrage etwas länger dauert. Wir setzen alles daran, so bald wie möglich eine Rückmeldung zu geben. Es kann aber vorkommen, dass sehr viele Anfragen zusammenkommen oder dass unsere Ressourcen temporär dringend anderweitig gebraucht werden.

About Marley &#8211

What life with Marley &#8211 looks like

Marley &#8211 is a medium-sized adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutzbund Basel Regional.

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 Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.

Frequently asked

Adopting Marley &#8211, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Marley &#8211?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzbund Basel Regional handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Marley &#8211 on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Marley &#8211 if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzbund Basel Regional 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 Marley &#8211 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 Marley &#8211 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 Tierschutzbund Basel Regional early rather than rehoming privately; they know Marley &#8211 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.
