How do I contact the shelter about Neko?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierischgeholfen e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Neko on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Neko if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierischgeholfen 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 Neko 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 Neko 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 Tierischgeholfen e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Neko 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.

Adopt Neko

Mixed Breed Cat · Male · Adult · 4 years

Description Our Spanish animal welfare workers report: This cute young tomcat was found on a busy street, where he had hidden under a car to seek safety. A fellow animal protection worker came to rescue him and brought him to her foster home. He is still a bit shy but can be handled during feeding time. Most of the time, he spends with a cat that also lives in the foster home. He views her as his mother and they are always together. With her, he is very cuddly. His future family will need to try to earn his trust gradually. At the foster home, he has already made great progress. With patience and lots of love, he will also settle into his new family. Who dares to take on this beautiful challenge? Update: For some time now, he has been living at the foster home with Gretel (who was rehomed recently). Neko is a little shy but is gradually gaining more trust in people. Update01.07.2023: New photos. Update27.03.2023: New photos. Update10.03.2023: New photos and description: Neko is still a bit shy, but with some tasty food, he can be lured closer as seen in the video. Update26.08.2022: New photos, new videos, new description: Home sought For Neko, we are looking for a loving, understanding home. Our cats come—where health and age allow—neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed, and with an EU Pass, if age and health permit. Additionally, they are tested for FELV/FIV. We look forward to your contact.

Beschreibung Unsere spanischen Tierschützer berichten: Dieses hübsche Katerchen wurde auf einer viel befahrenen Straße gefunden, als er sich unter den Wagen versteckte und in Sicherheit zu bringen versuchte. Eine Tierschutzkollegin kam um ihn zu retten und brachte ihn zu sich auf Pflegestelle. Er ist noch schüchtern, lässt sich aber während des Fressens anfassen. Den Rest der Zeit verbringt er mit einer Katze, die auf der gleichen Pflegestelle lebt. Er betrachtet sie wohl als seine Mama und sie sind immer zusammen. Zu ihr ist er sehr verschmust. Seine zukünftige Familie muss versuchen, nach und nach sein Vertrauen zu gewinnen. Auf der Pflegestelle hat er schon große Fortschritte gemacht. Mit Geduld und viel Liebe wird er sich auch sicher in seine neue Familie einleben. Wer traut sich diese schöne Aufgabe zu? Ergänzung: Seit einiger Zeit lebt er zusammen auf der Pflegestelle mit Gretel (sie wurde mittlerweile vermittelt). Neko ist ein wenig schüchtern, aber er fasst nach und nach immer mehr Vertrauen in Menschen.

About Neko

What life with Neko looks like

Neko is a large adult mixed breed cat cat waiting at Tierischgeholfen e.V. in Germany.

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.
