Olliver

European Shorthair · Male · Young · 2 years

Olliver sein Name. Der hübsche Kerl fällt auf mit seinem runden Kopf und den schönen Augen. Olliver kam als Fundtier zu uns und war leider weder gechippt noch kastriert. Dies haben wir nachgeholt und da sich kein Besitzer ausfindig machen lies, sucht Olliver nun ein neues Zuhause. Hier zeigt er sich unkompliziert und nett. Er findet Menschen ziemlich gut und macht herzzerreisende Geräusche. Auch Artgenossen begegnet er hier sehr offen, dennoch können wir aktuell nicht sagen, wie kompatibel er ist. Olliver möchte später die Option von (gesicherten) Freigang genießen.

About Olliver

What life with Olliver looks like

Olliver is a young adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Bochum in Bochum.

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 Olliver, answered.

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