Phoebe und Kosmo

European Shorthair · Female · Senior · 13 years

Phoebe : Sie ist neugierig und schreckhaft, sie ist Kinder gewöhnt, Lautstärke stresst sie und zieht sich dann zurück, sucht ab und zu Nähe, möchte dann gestreichelt werden, bei uns ist sie sehr anhänglich. Kosmos: Er hat bei Umzügen mit Blasenentzündungen reagiert, er ist ein Kind gewöhnt, aber Lautstärke stresst ihn und macht ihm Angst, dann zieht er sich zurück. Er ist ruhig und wenig aktiv, springt auf nichts, was höher als 30/40 cm ist (immer schon). Er wird sehr gerne gestreichelt und sucht die Nähe -kann aber zuschnappen, wenn ihn was nicht passt! Er hat wahrscheinlich Rückenschmerzen, weil er zu dick ist und dringend abnehmen muss. Er hat leichte Arthrosen in den Knien.

About Phoebe und Kosmo

What life with Phoebe und Kosmo looks like

Phoebe und Kosmo is a senior european shorthair cat waiting at Kolner Tierschutzverein in Köln.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇩🇪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 Phoebe und Kosmo, answered.

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