Pablo

Bengal · Male · Adult · 4 years

Pablo is actually a Bengal, just as he is in the book; beautiful, talkative and absolutely people-oriented. The uncomplicated cat also has no problem with children, but he can't stand other cats to death. But now to the catch; because unfortunately Pablo has congenital HCM. A heart muscle disease in which the heart muscle continues to thicken. Pablo is medically treated and then gets a daily tablet for life. Fortunately, this is manageable with a great appetite. His prognosis is good, but we don't know how many years he has left. Since the stay in the animal shelter is significantly stressed by the other cats and the lack of attention, we are urgently looking for a loving, cat-experienced home for him.

Pablo ist eigentlich ein Bengal wie er im Buche steht; wunderschön, gesprächig und absolut menschenbezogen. Der unkomplizierte Kater hat auch kein Problem mit Kindern, nur andere Katzen kann er auf den Tod nicht ausstehen. Doch nun zum Haken; denn leider hat Pablo angeborenes HCM. Eine Herzmuskelerkrankungen, bei der der Herzmuskel immer weiter verdickt. Pablo medikamentös eingestellt und bekommt dann ein Leben lang einmal täglich eine Tablette. Das ist zum Glück aber großen Appetit gut machbar. Seine Prognose ist gut, jedoch wissen wir nicht wie viel Jahre ihm noch bleiben. Da in der Aufenthalt im Tierheim durch die anderen Katzen und die fehlende Zuwendung deutlich stresst, suchen wir dringend ein liebevolles Katzenerfahrenes zu Hause für ihn.

About Pablo

What life with Pablo looks like

Pablo is a large adult bengal cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Reutlingen in Reutlingen.

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 Pablo, answered.

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