How do I contact the shelter about Nicky?

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

Can I adopt Nicky if I live in another country?

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

Nicky

Male · Adult · 4 years

Nicky was born at the end of 2022 in Spain and has already been through a lot in his short life. The tomcat was found with many other cats in a completely derelict house where they had to live under the worst conditions. Fortunately, they were discovered by our Spanish partners, who now take care of and feed Nicky among others. Nicky wishes for a family where he can enjoy the rest of his life and finally find a home. This handsome guy is a very affectionate fellow who loves to play almost as much as he loves to cuddle. During cuddling, it can sometimes happen that he gives "love bites." He gets along well with other cats, so he should also have a feline friend in his new home. He is already neutered and has tested negative for FIV and FeLV. Currently, Nicky is still in Spain but can move to his new home at any time. For travel arrangements, he will be fully vaccinated and microchipped. Would you like to give Nicky his forever home?

Ich wurde Ende 2022 in Spanien geboren und habe in meinem bisherigen Leben schon einiges erlebt. Zusammen mit vielen anderen Katzen musste ich in einem völlig verwahrlosten Haus unter schlimmsten Bedingungen leben. Zum Glück haben mich liebe Tierschützer gefunden und aufgenommen. Seitdem werde ich dort liebevoll versorgt und umsorgt. Jetzt wünsche ich mir nichts sehnlicher als eine eigene Familie, bei der ich endlich ankommen und mein Leben in Sicherheit genießen darf. Ich bin ein sehr verschmuster Kater und liebe es, mit meinen Menschen zu kuscheln. Genauso gerne spiele ich aber auch. Beim Schmusen kann es schon mal passieren, dass ich vor lauter Freude kleine Liebesbisse verteile. Mit anderen Katzen verstehe ich mich ebenfalls sehr gut, deshalb wünsche ich mir in meinem neuen Zuhause einen netten Fellfreund. Sollte dort noch keiner auf mich warten, bringe ich auch gerne einen meiner Katzenfreunde mit. Ich bin bereits kastriert und wurde negativ auf FiV und FeLV getestet. Zurzeit lebe ich noch in Spanien, könnte aber jederzeit mein Köfferchen packen und in mein neues Zuhause reisen. Bei meiner Ausreise bin ich selbstverständlich vollständig geimpft und gechippt. Vielleicht darf ich schon bald bei dir einziehen und endlich mein Für-immer-Zuhause finden? Ich würde mich riesig freuen. 🩷

About Nicky

What life with Nicky looks like

Nicky is a extra-large adult cat waiting at Aktion Tierisch Happy 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.
