Paolo (Freigänger)

Mixed Breed · Male

Paolo is a very sweet tomcat who has never wanted to fight with other cats. Back then, he lived in our "Shy Dormitory" 😉 and still keeps his distance from us "Can Openers". But he knows where the food bowls are, and he's familiar with the times too 🙂 Paolo needs a lot of time and seclusion, best in a house and yard where he can hide, but also have love and a warm community of cats. I need a financial support team that can collectively contribute 50 € per month for me!

DE·Show original

Paolo ist ein ganz lieber Kater, der mit anderen Katzen noch nie anecken wollte. Damals wohnte er in unserer „Schüchternen-WG“ 😉 und noch immer hält er Abstand zu uns „Dosenöffnern“. Wo die Futternäpfe sind, weiß er aber, und die Zeiten kennt er auch 🙂 Paolo braucht ganz viel Zeit und Rückzug, am besten Haus & Hof, wo er sich verstecken kann, aber auch liebe & lockere Katzengesellschaft hat. Ich brauche ein finanzielles Patenteam, das gemeinsam 50 € mtl. für mich stemmt!

About Paolo (Freigänger)

What life with Paolo (Freigänger) looks like

Paolo (Freigänger) is a medium-sized adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Sadelkow - Gnadenhof Sonnenschein e.V. in Datzetal.

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 Paolo (Freigänger), answered.

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