How do I contact the shelter about Matze & Mumpitz?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Hamburger Tierschutzverein handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Matze & Mumpitz on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Matze & Mumpitz if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Hamburger Tierschutzverein 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 Matze & Mumpitz 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 Matze & Mumpitz 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 Hamburger Tierschutzverein early rather than rehoming privately; they know Matze & Mumpitz 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.

Matze & Mumpitz

Male · Kitten

Matz and Mumpitz, two brothers, came into our care at about five weeks old along with their mother and siblings. Now the two are looking for their forever home. Matz and Mumpitz are very affectionate towards people and not at all shy. They love to run around and play wild and exuberantly. They are still a bit unruly and overzealous with their little claws. We are looking for people for Matz and Mumpitz who enjoy two bundles of energy with heads full of mischief and who lovingly accompany the kittens in their development. Like all kittens at their age, Matz and Mumpitz also need a lot of attention and activity. A long working day outside the home cannot be reconciled with their needs. In their future home, there should be cozy places to cuddle and observe. Also exciting cat toys, a great scratching post and other climbing opportunities should not be missing. The two kittens are only given together and want to go outside in a traffic-calmed environment. Children are no problem, as long as they respect the boundaries of the kittens. If you would like to give Matz and Mumpitz a loving home, please send your completed self-assessment to (for the address JavaScript must be enabled). 24.07.2026 (lh)

Wir haben schon sehr viele Interessenten. Bitte nicht mehr bewerben! (27.07.2026) Die Brüder Matze und Mumpitz kamen im Alter von etwa fünf Wochen zusammen mit ihrer Mutter und ihren Geschwistern in unsere Obhut. Nun sind die zwei auf der Suche nach ihrem Für-Immer-Zuhause. Menschen gegenüber sind Matze und Mumpitz sehr zugewandt und überhaupt nicht scheu. Sie lieben es, durch die Gegend zu flitzen und wild und ausgelassen zu toben. Dabei sind sie noch etwas ungestüm und übereifrig mit ihren kleinen Krallen. Wir suchen für Matze und Mumpitz Menschen, die Freude an zwei Energiebündeln mit Köpfen voller Flausen haben und die Katerchen liebevoll in ihrer Entwicklung begleiten. Wie alle Katzenkinder in ihrem Alter brauchen auch Matze und Mumpitz viel Beschäftigung und Aufmerksamkeit. Ein langer Arbeitsalltag außerhalb des Zuhauses lässt sich mit ihren Bedürfnissen nicht vereinbaren. In ihrem zukünftigen Zuhause sollte es gemütliche Plätze zum Kuscheln und Beobachten geben. Auch spannendes Katzenspielzeug, ein toller Kratzbaum und andere Klettermöglichkeiten sollten nicht fehlen. Die beiden Katerchen werden ausschließlich zusammen vermittelt und wünschen sich Freigang in einer verkehrsberuhigten Umgebung. Kinder sind, sofern sie die Grenzen der Kitten respektieren, kein Problem. Wenn Sie Matze und Mumpitz ein liebevolles Zuhause schenken möchten, schicken Sie gerne Ihre ausgefüllte Selbstauskunft an (Für die Adresse JavaScript anschalten). 24.07.2026 (lh)

About Matze & Mumpitz

What life with Matze & Mumpitz looks like

Matze & Mumpitz is a puppy/kitten cat waiting at Hamburger Tierschutzverein in Hamburg.

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.
