Adopt Milan

Mixed Breed · Male · 6 months

Milan (just under 6 months) is a trusting, speckled tomcat. He needs people who can give him lots of attention and cuddles. From time to time, he finds a cozy spot to sleep, and he loves sleeping on the bed. He especially enjoys playing with a fishing rod toy or balls. He likes to sit by the window and longingly look outside. A secure garden would be important for him. Milan is a dear, uncomplicated tomcat. He willingly goes into the carrier. Milan will be rehomed with V. If you are interested, please contact Silvia at .

Milan (knapp 6 Monate) ist ein zutraulicher, verschmuster Kater. Er braucht Menschen, die ihm viel Aufmerksamkeit und Streicheleinheiten schenken. Zwischendurch sucht er sich ein kuscheliges Plätzchen zum Schlafen, gerne auch auf dem Bett. Spielen mit der Angel oder Bällchen mag er besonders. Er sitzt gerne am Fenster und schaut sehnsüchtig nach draußen. Ein gesicherter Garten wäre für ihn wichtig. Milan ist ein lieber, unkomplizierter Kater. Er geht freiwillig in die Transportbox. Milan wird mit Schutzvertrag und Schutzgebühr über den Tierschutzverein Ibbenbüren und Umgebung e. V. vermittelt. Bei Interesse meldet euch gerne bei Silvia unter .

About Milan

What life with Milan looks like

Milan is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Ibbenbüren in Ibbenbüren.

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 Milan, answered.

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