Nemo

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 8 years

Nemo is a gentle, patient and very affectionate young tomcat. Appropriately for his age, he is still very playful, and has learned to open doors to be with his human without any hindrance. His favorite pastime is playing with water, even the shower is not too wet for him. The cute little guy is somewhat shy, and sometimes loses his courage at loud noises and unfamiliar things. Therefore, Nemo needs a quiet home with lots of time and security. A secured balcony would be nice, although he prefers to occupy himself in the safer area of the apartment. But what is not yet, can still become. Nemo and Lilly are siblings, and can also go their separate ways in the future. Nemo and Lilly were born in August 2018. This animal can be anxious in unfamiliar situations.

DE·Show original

Nemo ist ein gutmütiges , geduldiges und sehr verschmustes Katerchen. Altersgemäß noch sehr verspielt, hat er gelernt Türen zu öffnen um so ungehindert bei seinem Menschen zu sein. Seine Lieblingsbeschäftigung ist mit Wasser zu spielen , selbst die Dusche ist ihm nicht zu nass. Der putzige kleine Kerl ist etwas ängstlich , bei lauten Geräuschen und unbekannten Dingen verlässt ihn manchmal der Mut. Nemo braucht deshalb ein ruhiges Zuhause mit viel Zeit und Geborgenheit. Ein gesicherter Balkon wäre schön , auch wenn er sich lieber im sicherem Wohnungsbereich beschäftigt. Aber was nicht ist, kann ja noch werden. Nemo und Lilly sind Geschwister , können aber auch getrennt ihren künftigen Weg gehen. Nemo und Lilly wurden im August 2018 geboren.

About Nemo

What life with Nemo looks like

Nemo is a small adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierhilfe Franken e.V. in Lauf.

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 Nemo, answered.

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