Max

Mixed Breed · Male

Max lived on a larger dairy farm with many other cats. The farm owners had failed to get the cats neutered in time, and so the population kept growing. Max wishes to find a new home with a family in a quiet living area. A cat flap should be present. Max is a very loving, friendly tomcat. He is modest, loves to bask in the sun in the garden and explore it anew every time.

Max lebte auf einem größeren Milchhof zusammen mit vielen anderen Katzen. Die Hofbesitzer hatten versäumt, die Katzen rechtzeitig kastrieren zu lassen und so wurden es immer mehr. Max wünscht sich ein neues Zuhause bei einer Familie mit Auslauf in ruhiger Wohnlage. Eine Katzenklappe sollte vorhanden sein. Max ist ein sehr lieber, netter Kater. Er ist bescheiden, liebt es im Garten in der Sonne zu sein und diesen immer wieder aufs neue zu erkunden. möglich oder zusammen mit Freddy

About Max

What life with Max looks like

Max 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 Max, answered.

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