Adopt Morris

Mixed Breed · Unknown

A handsome type is definitely our Morris, BUT not exactly without flaws. He is rather self-assured and absolutely does not want any fellow animals around him; he attacks them immediately and shows stress and tension even when he sees them from a distance. Stress in general can sometimes come out at people and could even bite. For this reason, children should absolutely not be in the new home. But he also has his great sides. When he is relaxed, he is a cuddler and also says yes to playing with the lure. For him, cat lovers are needed who are not only charmed by his appearance but also recognize his strong character and can deal with it. If his new home is interesting and varied, a life in pure apartment living should not be a problem, but due to his energy, we also see him well on a leash. This cat needs outdoor access.

Read original (de)

Ein hübscher Typ ist unser Morris auf jeden Fall, ABER auch nicht ganz ohne. Er ist ziemlich selbstbewusst und möchte absolut keine Artgenossen neben sich dulden, diese attackiert er sofort und zeigt sich auch schon gestresst und angespannt, wenn er sie von weitem sieht. Stress allgemein lässt er bisweilen dann auch am Menschen aus und könnte auch beißen. Aus diesem Grund sollten auf keinen Fall Kinder mit im neuen Zuhause wohnen. Er hat aber auch seine tollen Seiten. Wenn er entspannt ist, ist er ein Schmuser und sagt auch zu Spielen mit der Reizangel nicht „nein“. Für ihn werden Katzenkenner gesucht, die sich nicht nur von seiner Optik verleiten lassen, sondern auch den starken Charakter erkennen und damit umgehen können. Wenn sein neues Zuhause interessant und abwechslungsreich gestaltet ist, sollte einem Leben in reiner Wohnungshaltung nichts im Wege stehen, aufgrund seiner Energie sehen wir ihn aber auch gut im Freigang.

About Morris

What life with Morris looks like

Morris is a small adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Minden e.V. in Minden.

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 Morris, answered.

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