Pancake (Freigang)

Unknown · Adult · 10 years

I originally came to the shelter as a stray cat. After my owners were found, it turned out that I kept running back to my old neighborhood. My owners tried multiple times to get me used to the new home but it was unsuccessful. That's why they decided to give me up. So that I can get a loving and warm home and not have to be alone outside. Here I show myself as a loving, social and relaxed cat. I love attention and want to be noticed. If someone walks past my enclosure and overlooks me, I just meow friendly behind them, after all, it's not easy to walk past me like that. I get along well with other cats and would be happy if a cat/tomcat greeted me in my new home. I also want to go outside again in my new home. I get along well with cat-inexperienced people and small children. We are happy that you are interested in Pancake. Please send us a direct inquiry. Then you will become a sponsor for Pancake. Of course, Pancake also appreciates individual monetary and material donations.

Ich kam ursprünglich als Fundkater ins Tierheim. Nachdem meine Besitzer gefunden worden sind kam raus, dass ich immer wieder in die alte Nachbarschaft zurückgelaufen bin. Meine Besitzer haben mehrfach versucht mich an das neue Zuhause zu gewöhnen aber es war erfolglos. Deswegen haben sie sich entschieden mich Abzugeben. Damit ich ein liebevolles und warmes Zuhause bekomme und nicht draußen alleine sein muss. Hier zeige ich mich als lieber, sozialer und entspannter Kater. Ich liebe Aufmerksamkeit und möchte beachtet werden. Wenn jemand an meinem Auslauf vorbeiläuft und mich übersieht, maunze ich einfach freundlich hinterher, schließlich geht das gar nicht einfach so an mir vorbeizulaufen. Mit anderen Katzen komme ich gut zurecht und würde mich freuen, wenn mich in meinem neuen Zuhause eine Katze/ Kater begrüßen kommt. Ich möchte auch in meinem neuen Zuhause wieder in den Freigang. Mit Katzenunerfahrenen Menschen und kleinen Kinder komme ich gut zurecht. Wir freuen uns, dass Sie sich für Pancake interessieren. Senden Sie uns am besten direkt eine Interessentenanfrage. Dann werden Sie Pate für Pancake. Natürlich freut sich Pancake auch über einzelne Geld- und Sachspenden.

About Pancake (Freigang)

What life with Pancake (Freigang) looks like

Pancake (Freigang) is a adult cat waiting at Tierheim Karlsruhe in Karlsruhe.

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 Pancake (Freigang), answered.

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