How do I contact the shelter about Phantom?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Wetzlar handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Phantom on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Phantom if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Wetzlar 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 Phantom 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 Phantom 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 Wetzlar early rather than rehoming privately; they know Phantom 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.

Phantom

European Shorthair · Female

Hello, I am Phantom 🥰 My brother is Wicked and we share our fate…. Unfortunately, we only came to the animal shelter at six months old and were wild as spiders 🙈 Our other two brothers have already found homes…. I am making progress….but it is slow…. Maybe someone with a female cat of a similar age at home, who is open and curious, and looking for a friend? 🍀 The people here are sure that I could learn a lot from her and eventually become a snuggly cat 🥰 But it takes people with patience, a quiet home without small children, and just time…. Maybe a lot of time…. But I promise, I am trying my best ❤️🍀 If someone has a suitable place for me, please send a mail to the animal shelter: Then we can make an appointment and get to know each other 🍀 I also really, really want a real home… I am waiting here for you, full of hope, your Phantom ❤️ (This description of me is just a snapshot from the shelter life. I can develop differently in a new home.) Please read our criteria for placement on our homepage: Placement Criteria – animal welfare association Wetzlar and surroundings e.V.

Hallöchen, ich bin Phantom 🥰 Mein Bruder ist Wicked und wir teilen unser Schicksal…. Leider kamen wir erst mit 6 Monaten ins Tierheim und waren spinnewild 🙈 Unsere beiden anderen Brüder haben schon ein Zuhause gefunden…. Ich mache Fortschritte….aber die sind bei mir klein…. Vielleicht hat ja jemand ein Katzenmädchen im ähnlichen Alter Zuhause, was aufgeschlossen und neugierig ist und eine Freundin braucht ? 🍀 Die Menschen hier sind sich sicher, dass ich dann viel von ihr lernen könnte und irgendwann auch eine Schmusemaus werde 🥰 Aber da braucht es Menschen mit Geduld, ein ruhiges Zuhause ohne kleine Kinder und einfach Zeit…. Vielleicht viel Zeit… Aber ich verspreche, ich gebe mir Mühe ❤️🍀 Wenn jemand ein passendes Plätzchen für mich hat, dann schreibt schnell eine Mail ans Tierheim: Dann machen wir einen Termin aus und können uns mal kennenlernen 🍀 Ich wünsche mir doch auch sooooo sehr ein richtiges Zuhause… Ich warte hier auf Euch, voller Hoffnung, Eure Phantom ❤️ (Die Beschreibung von mir ist nur eine Momentaufnahme aus dem Tierheimalltag. Ich kann mich im neuen Zuhause auch ganz anders entwickeln.) Bitte lest vorab bei uns auf der Homepage die Vermittlungskriterien: Vermittlungskriterien – Tierschutzverein Wetzlar und Umgebung e.V.

About Phantom

What life with Phantom looks like

Phantom is a small adult european shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim Wetzlar in Wetzlar.

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.
