Moritz

Mixed Breed · Male

My name is Moritz, I am a ca. 6-year-old tomcat. I would much prefer a home without other cats. I also don't particularly like children; they are always so loud and wild. At my age, it's nicer to have a cozy and quiet environment. Nevertheless, I am very cuddly and enjoy being spoiled. If you are interested, feel free to get in touch.

Mein Name ist Moritz, ich bin ein ca. 6 jähriger Kater. Am liebsten wäre mir ein Zuhause ohne andere Katzen. Kinder mag ich auch nicht besonders, die sind immer so laut und wild. In meinem Alter hat man es lieber gemütlich und ruhig. Trotzdem bin ich sehr verschmust und lass mich auch gern verwöhnen. Wenn ich dein Interesse geweckt habe, dann melde dich doch mal.

About Moritz

What life with Moritz looks like

Moritz is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Gunzenhausen und Umgebung e.V. in Gunzenhausen.

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 Gunzenhausen und Umgebung e.V. 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 Gunzenhausen und Umgebung 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 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 Gunzenhausen und Umgebung e.V. 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.
