Adopt PEPPI

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 7 years

Our European Shorthair tomcat PEPPI was born on 17.06.2018, neutered, and came to us because he attacked his owner. PEPPI is a friendly, active, independent, and opinionated tomcat. He requires a lot of stimulation, but can quickly become overstimulated, which can lead to an attack. He dislikes dogs and can be territorial towards fellow animals. When interacting with fellow animals, he can be insecure, so the existing cat should not be demanding. Children should also not be present in the new home. We are looking for experienced cat owners who can handle his insecurity and appreciate his demanding potential, giving him a chance at a new home. PEPPI should be placed in a large apartment that offers enough space for adequate movement, ideally with a cat-safe netted balcony, or even better, a secured terrace or garden.

About PEPPI

What life with PEPPI looks like

PEPPI is a medium-sized adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim München in Munich.

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 PEPPI, answered.

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