Percy

European Shorthair · Male · Young · 1 year

Sonstiges: geimpft, gechipt Percy ist ein aufgeschlossener Kater, der gerne im Mittelpunkt steht und den Kontakt zum Menschen sucht. Er ist sehr kommunikativ und begleitet jeden Kontakt mit fröhlichem Mauzen. Er möchte gerne überall dabei sein und vergisst darüber manchmal, dass er doch etwas unsicher ist. Deswegen sucht er ein ruhiges Zuhause, das es ihm ermöglicht, sich auch zurückziehen zu können. Es hat sich gezeigt, dass Percy mit anderen Katzen nicht gut zurecht kommt und sie eher dominieren möchte. Deswegen suchen wir ein Zuhause, indem er als Einzelkater leben kann.

About Percy

What life with Percy looks like

Percy is a young adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierschutz Kelkheim in Kelkheim (Taunus).

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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Percy, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Percy?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutz Kelkheim handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Percy on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Percy if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutz Kelkheim 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Percy 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 Percy 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 Tierschutz Kelkheim early rather than rehoming privately; they know Percy 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.
