Mäxchen

European Shorthair · Male

Oh, hello, my name is Mäxchen and I'm just new to the cat dating scene! I didn't notice you at first because I was fishing in my drinking water bowl… I know I haven't found it yet, but let's say: I'll find it soon. Anyway: You don't know me yet, but that's not a problem. We can change that very quickly! With me: I love exploration tours, so a free roam is a must. I'm also quite action-oriented and want to experience a lot with you. I'm also very cuddly and very curious, some even say I'm cute. This cat needs outdoor access.

Oh, hallo, mein Name ist Mäxchen & erst neu im Katzen-Dating! Ich habe dich gerade nicht bemerkt, weil ich in meinem Trinkwasser-Napf angle… ich weiß zwar noch nicht was, aber, sagen wir mal: Ich habe es gleich gefunden. Jedenfalls: Du kennst mich noch nicht, aber das ist nicht schlimm. Das können wir sehr schnell ändern! Zu mir: Ich mag Erkundungstouren, deswegen ist Freigang ein muss. Ich bin auch ganz schön auf Action aus & möchte viel mit dir erleben. Ich bin auch sehr verschmust & sehr neugierig, manche behaupten auch, ich wäre süß. Leider fanden das nicht alle so, ich wurde aus einem Hau

About Mäxchen

What life with Mäxchen looks like

Mäxchen is an adult european shorthair cat waiting at Meine Katzenstation in Rüdersdorf bei Berlin.

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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Mäxchen, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Mäxchen?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Meine Katzenstation handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Mäxchen on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Mäxchen if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Meine Katzenstation 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Mäxchen 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 Mäxchen 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 Meine Katzenstation early rather than rehoming privately; they know Mäxchen 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.
