adoption requirements adoption process Now request this animal! adoption requirements adoption process Mikesch has found a home! His story: Cluj, Romania. Mikesch is approximately 5-6 years old and currently resides in Cluj, where he hopes to find a loving home. He is known for his friendly and affectionate personality. He enjoys being the center of attention. His adaptability and good behavior around other cats make him an ideal choice if another cat is already in the household. However, it is also possible to keep him as a single cat. Whether he gets along with dogs has not been tested yet. Unfortunately, Mikesch was found in very poor condition. He suffers from chronic rhinitis, which leads to excessive mucus production. This condition could potentially be permanent. Additionally, FIV was diagnosed in him. While FIV can lead to a weakened immune system, it is not a reason to not adopt him. FIV is a viral disease that is exclusively transmissible between cats; humans and other animals cannot contract it. FIV-positive cats can live a proud life alongside FIV-negative cats, as long as all kittens are compatible and there are no bloody fights. Transmission through saliva is not possible. However, a free roam is not possible for Mikesch. Despite these challenges, the loving young tomcat has shown that he is a fighter, does not easily give up, and still wants to enjoy life. Maybe he will get the chance with you?

Vermittlungsvoraussetzungen Vermittlungsablauf Jetzt dieses Tier anfragen! Vermittlungsvoraussetzungen Vermittlungsablauf Mikesch hat ein Zuhause gefunden! Seine Geschichte: Cluj, Rumänien. Mikesch ist im Alter von etwa 5-6 Jahre und befindet sich derzeit in Cluj, wo er darauf hofft, ein liebevolles Zuhause zu finden. Er zeichnet sich durch seine freundliche und liebevolle Persönlichkeit aus. Er genießt es, im Mittelpunkt der Aufmerksamkeit zu stehen. Seine Anpassungsfähigkeit und sein gutes Verhalten zu anderen Katzen macht ihn zu einer idealen Wahl, wenn bereits eine andere Katze im Haushalt lebt. Es ist aber auch möglich, dass er als Einzelkater gehalten wird. Ob er sich auch mit Hunden versteht, konnte bisher nicht getestet werden. Leider wurde Mikesch in sehr schlechtem Zustand gefunden. Er leidet an einer chronischen Rhinitis, die zu einer übermäßigen Schleimproduktion führt. Dieser Zustand könnte möglicherweise dauerhaft sein. Zudem wurde bei ihm die Krankheit FIV festgestellt. Dies ist aber kein Grund ihn nicht zu adoptieren. FIV ist eine Viruserkrankung, die zu einer Schwäche des Immunsystems führen kann. Dennoch können FIV positive Katzen, genauso wie eine negativ getestete, ein stolzes Alter erreichen! Das Virus ist ausschließlich auf Katzen übertragbar, Menschen und andere Tiere können sich nicht anstecken. Eine FIV+ Katze kann mit einer negativ getesteten zusammenleben, sofern alle Kätzchen verträglich sind und es zu keinen blutigen Beißereien kommt. Eine Übertragung durch Speichel ist nicht möglich. Freigang ist für Mikesch jedoch nicht möglich. Trotz dieser Herausforderungen hat das liebe Katerchen gezeigt, dass er ein Kämpfer ist, sich nicht leicht unterkriegen lässt und das Leben noch lange genießen möchte. Vielleicht bekommt er ja bei euch die Chance dazu? Aufgrund seines Gesundheitszustandes und seiner besonderen Bedürfnisse, wird Mikesch in einen Gnadenplatz vermittelt, das heißt, es wird keine Schutzgebühr für seine

About Mikesch

What life with Mikesch looks like

Mikesch is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Ein Herz für Streuner e.V. in München.

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 Mikesch, answered.

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