Moritz

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 7 years

Due to the serious illness of his owner, we are looking for a new loving home for Moritz. Moritz is extremely people-oriented and clingy, and loves to cuddle with his human. In recent years, he lived with Timmy in suitable for apartment living, but he would be very happy to have a home with outdoor access in a traffic-calmed area. Moritz was born in 2019, is neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated. He is currently together with Timmy in our foster home in Salem BeurenContact:

Aufgrund der schweren Erkrankung seines Frauchens suchen wir für Moritz ein neues liebevolles Zuhause. Moritz ist extrem menschenbezogen und anhänglich und liebt es mit seinem Menschen zu schmusen. Die letzten Jahre lebte er zusammen mit Timmy in Wohnungshaltung, aber er würde sich sehr über ein Zuhause mit Freigang in verkehrsberuhigter Umgebung freuen. Moritz ist 2019 geboren, kastriert, gechipt und geimpft. Er befindet sich zusammen mit Timmy auf unserer Pflegestelle in Salem BeurenKontakt: oder

About Moritz

What life with Moritz looks like

Moritz is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Markdorf in Markdorf.

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 Moritz, answered.

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