Pamukel

Scottish Fold · Male · Adult · 6 years

He was kept as a single pet only in the apartment by his owners. He was also not neutered. Then the hormones took over and out of frustration, he began to terrorize his people, for example by jumping on their legs or arms when passing by. His dominant behavior became too much for his owners, and they brought Pamukel to the animal shelter. Here, he was neutered and is now slowly calming down. Pamukel is not a bad guy. He is also not as tense anymore, and he lets himself be stroked and is beginning to enjoy it without immediately jumping on the arm out of excitement. However, it will take some time for him to settle in. For Pamukel, we are looking for a stress-free and quiet new home with a cat flap that allows free access. The area should be traffic-free, as Pamukel is not familiar with traffic. Children and fellow animals should not live in the household. Pamukel is also not suitable for people who party a lot or have a lot of visitors. Pamukel needs mental stimulation, even with his human. He wants to be mentally challenged. For example, with clicker training or other intelligence games. Scottish Folds can be prone to breed-specific health issues, such as heart and kidney diseases as well as joint problems.

Nutrition tips: Watch this video if you want to learn more about the right nutrition for your cats. The video is meant to summarize the most important information. We are of course available for further information. This cat needs outdoor access.

Pamukel ist ein spezieller Kater. Er wurde von seinen Haltern als Einzeltier nur in der Wohnung gehalten. Kastriert war er auch nicht. Bis dann die Hormone überhandnahmen und er aus Frust seine Menschen terroriesiert hat. Wie zum Beispiel beim Vorbeigehen in die Beine springen oder auch an die Arme. Sein Machoverhalten wurde den Haltern zu viel und sie brachten Pamukel ins Tierheim. Hier wurde er kastriert und kommt nun langsam zur Ruhe. Pamukel ist kein schlechter Kerl. Er ist nun auch nicht mehr so angespannt, er lässt sich auch streicheln und fängt an sowas gut zu finden ohne gleich aus Übermut an den Arm zu springen. Allerdings wird es noch etwas dauern, bis er sich gefunden hat. Für Pamukel suchen wir ein stressfreies und ruhiges neues Zuhause mit Freigang durch eine Katzenklappe. Die Gegend sollte verkehrsarm sein, da Pamukel sich mit Straßenverkehr nicht auskennt. Kinder und Artgenossen sollten nicht mit im Haushalt leben. Auch für Menschen die viel Feiern oder viel Besuch bekommen ist Pamukel nicht geeignet. Pamukel braucht Beschäftigung, auch mit seinem Menschen zusammen. Er möchte geistig ausgelastet werden. Wie zum Beispiel mit „Klickern“ oder anderen Intelligenzspiele. Scottish Fold Katzen können rassebedingte Erkrankungen bekommen. Wie zum Beispiel Herz-und Nierenerkrankungen sowie Gelenkerkrankungen.

About Pamukel

What life with Pamukel looks like

Pamukel is a medium-sized adult scottish fold cat waiting at Tierheim Hannover in Hannover.

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.

Note from the shelter: Needs quiet environment, outdoor access via cat flap, low-traffic area, mental stimulation, potential breed-related health issues (heart, kidney, joint problems)

🇩🇪Adopting from Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Many dogs and cats leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport, but this varies by shelter, so confirm what is included with the shelter.

Frequently asked

Adopting Pamukel, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Pamukel?: Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. Tierheim Hannover handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Pamukel on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Pamukel if I live in another country?: Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask Tierheim Hannover whether they will for Pamukel, what they require (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Pamukel already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: Tierheim Hannover lists Pamukel as neutered. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by Tierheim Hannover, so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Pamukel isn't the right fit?: Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask Tierheim Hannover about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Pamukel 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.
