Pauli

European Shorthair · Male

Hey, I hope I'm not making you nervous. I'm Pauli and I'm actually quite nice if you don't hassle me. But, as I said, I'm a very social tomcat, both with other cats and people – but I can also be happy on my own. I don't need a leash, a balcony is more than enough, I'm just uncomplicated, you know? Easy-going, basically. This cat needs outdoor access.

Hey, ich hoffe ich mache dir keine Angst. Ich bin Pauli und bin eigentlich ein ganz Netter, wenn man mich nicht bedrängt. Aber, wie gesagt, ich bin ein ganz geselliger Kater, sowohl mit anderen Katzen als auch Menschen – kann aber auch allein glücklich sein. Freigang brauche ich nicht, Balkon reicht völlig, bin eben unkompliziert, eine echte Type, verstehste? Lässig halt. Was kann ich dafür, dass ein hartes Pflaster in Hamburg nach mir benannt wurde, bin eigentlich echt ziemlich gelassen und werde hier überall respektiert und gemocht, sagen auch, dass sie so einen tollen Typen wie mich schon l

About Pauli

What life with Pauli looks like

Pauli is a adult european shorthair cat waiting at Meine Katzenstation in Rüdersdorf bei Berlin.

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 Pauli, answered.

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