Martin

European Shorthair · Male · Kitten · 4 months

Martin - little red explorer is looking for his home Martin is a handsome red-striped male cat, born around May 15, 2026. The little fellow came to our shelter as a found animal and is now ready to pack his bags and move into a loving home. Still a bit cautious, Martin is currently a bit shy and reserved. At the same time, he already lets himself be stroked - a good start! With patient people who give him the necessary time, he will certainly be able to gain more confidence step by step. Martin is not yet neutered, which has not yet occurred due to his young age. Together into cat life We are looking for a home for Martin with a similarly aged kitten. Because at this age, a suitable playmate is incredibly important: together you can play, romp, cuddle and learn from each other. A kitten should not grow up alone. Even if Martin may be a bit cautious at first, he needs the company of a small cat partner with whom he can discover the world and gain important social experiences. What does a kitten need to be happy? Little kittens need above all time, occupation, security and lots of loving attention. They want to climb, play, romp, discover and of course also sleep comfortably and cuddle. Whoever decides on a kitten takes responsibility for many years together. In addition to a lot of love, this also includes good food, veterinary care, vaccinations and later neutering. Later out into the big world Martin is intended as an outdoor cat. After a corresponding acclimatization period, he may later explore his surroundings and experience small adventures together with his cat buddy.

&; Martin – kleiner roter Entdecker sucht sein Zuhause &;&; Martin ist ein hübscher rot-getigerter EKH-Kater, geboren etwa am 15.05.2026. Der kleine Kerl kam als Fundtier zu uns ins Tierheim und ist nun bereit, seine Köfferchen zu packen und in ein liebevolles Zuhause umzuziehen. &; Noch ein bisschen vorsichtig Martin zeigt sich aktuell noch etwas schüchtern und zurückhaltend . Gleichzeitig lässt er sich bereits streicheln – ein schöner Anfang! Mit geduldigen Menschen, die ihm die nötige Zeit geben, wird er sicherlich Schritt für Schritt mehr Vertrauen fassen können. Martin ist noch nicht kastriert , was aufgrund seines jungen Alters auch noch nicht erfolgt ist. &; Gemeinsam ins Katzenleben Für Martin suchen wir ein Zuhause mit einem gleichaltrigen Katzenkind . Denn gerade in diesem Alter ist ein passender Artgenosse unglaublich wichtig: Gemeinsam kann man spielen, toben, kuscheln und voneinander lernen. Ein Kitten sollte nicht alleine aufwachsen. Auch wenn Martin vielleicht zunächst etwas vorsichtig ist, braucht er die Gesellschaft eines kleinen Katzenpartners, mit dem er die Welt entdecken und wichtige soziale Erfahrungen sammeln kann. &; Was braucht ein Kitten zum Glücklichsein? Kleine Katzenkinder brauchen vor allem Zeit, Beschäftigung, Sicherheit und ganz viel liebevolle Zuwendung . Sie möchten klettern, spielen, toben, entdecken und natürlich auch gemütlich schlafen und kuscheln. Wer sich für ein Kitten entscheidet, übernimmt Verantwortung für viele gemeinsame Jahre. Dazu gehören neben viel Liebe natürlich auch gutes Futter, tierärztliche Versorgung, Impfungen und die spätere Kastration . &; Später hinaus in die große Welt Martin ist als Freigänger vorgesehen. Nach einer entsprechenden Eingewöhnungszeit darf er später seine Umgebung erkunden und gemeinsam mit seinem Katzenkumpel kleine Abenteuer erleben. &;&; Nun fehlt Martin eigentlich nur noch eines: ein liebevolles Zuhause mit einem passenden Katzen

About Martin

What life with Martin looks like

Martin 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 Martin, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Martin?
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 Martin on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Martin 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 Martin 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 Martin 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 Martin 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.
