Pico FIV+

Male · Adult · 5 years

Pet ID: That’s me! Fancy meeting up? Become my sponsor! Name: Pico FIV+ Breed: European Shorthair Gender: Male, neutered Weight: 3.7 kilograms Age: 2021 In the shelter since: March 18, 2026 We thank all our sponsors for their support: Chiara K., Ursula G., Luana R. Either Pico once took a hard left hook or had an encounter with a car. The fact that he’s perpetually grinning crookedly like Batman’s Joker is at least due to a very old jaw fracture. His eyesight and nose also seem to have been affected by the accident, which is particularly noticeable when we’re handing out treats—sometimes he doesn’t even realize the cookies have already flown by. He came to us in March as part of a spaying/neutering campaign. But since he also tested positive for FIV and suspicion of FIP grew stronger, he spent many weeks in our quarantine station, keeping us on our toes with spitting and swatting. Yet his outbursts became less frequent; instead, Picoballa more and more often started his engine and rubbed himself against the cage bars. Since he was able to move from the small box into the spacious apartment—including a fenced garden area—the situation has changed dramatically overnight. Suddenly, there was a tomcat in front of us you could almost trip over because he’s constantly sticking to you. Pico loves having his head scratched, although he still gets a bit startled from time to time due to his limitations. But even then, he remains incredibly sweet—no sign of aggression anymore! Pico is still undergoing ongoing FIP therapy, but in the medium term, he’s looking for a home where he’ll live exclusively indoors—preferably with a secure balcony. We can’t yet make any definitive statements about his behavior toward other cats, as we currently don’t have a suitable companion animal for him. Do you have a question about this pet? Feel free to call us: Daily except holidays: 10 a.m.–12 p.m. and 1 p.m.–5 p.m. Or write to us: Send inquiry { const submitter = document.querySelector('.g-recaptcha'); const form = submitter.form; const submitFunction = function(e) { e.preventDefault(); grecaptcha.ready(function() { grecaptcha.execute('6LcQDv0fAAAAAJkR3f9WlCLmKRxssPGJQrnXYeSx', {action: '/tiervermittlung/katzen5/picofiv851html'}).then(function(token) { form.querySelector('[name="recaptcha-token"]').value = token; form.removeEventListener('submit', submitFunction); form.requestSubmit(submitter); }); }); } form.addEventListener('submit', submitFunction); } Sponsorship application for Pico FIV+ – Tierhafen Bad Karlshafen Some residents need a little extra patience when finding a suitable home—whether due to illness, age, or special personality traits.

Tierausweis Das bin ich! Lust auf ein Treffen? Werde mein Pate! Name: Pico FIV+ Rasse: Europäisch Kurzhaar Geschlecht: männlich kastriert Gewicht: 3,7 Kilogramm Alter: 2021 Im Tierheim seit: 18.03.2026 Wir bedanken uns bei allen Paten für Ihre Unterstützung: Chiara K., Ursula G., Luana R. Entweder hat Pico mal einen starken linken Haken abbekommen oder Bekanntschaft mit einem Auto gemacht. Dass er permanent so schief grinst wie Batmans Joker rührt zumindest von einem sehr alten Kieferbruch. Auch seine Sehkraft und seine Nase scheinen von dem Unfall betroffen, was sich insbesondere bei der Leckerlievergabe bemerkbar macht, während derer er teils gar nicht mitbekommt, dass die Kekse schon geflogen sind.Im März kam er im Rahmen einer Kastrationsaktion zu uns. Da er zudem aber positiv auf FIV getestet wurde und sich der Verdacht auf FIP erhärtete, verbrachte er viele Wochen in unserer Quarantänestation und Zeit damit, uns durch Spucken und Schlagen in Schach zu halten.Doch seine Ausbrüche wurden immer weniger, dafür schmiss Picoballa immer öfter den Motor an und schrubbelte sich am Gitter.Seit er von der kleinen Box ins großzügige Apartment samt eingezäuntem Gartenabteil umziehen konnte, hat sich das Blatt schlagartig gewandelt. Auf einmal stand ein Kater vor uns, über den man fast stolpert, da er immerzu an einem klebt. Pico liebt es, den Kopf gekrault zu werden, obwohl er sich hin und wieder aufgrund der Einschränkungen noch etwas erschrickt. Er bleibt aber selbst da sehr nett - keine Spur von Hauen mehr!Pico befindet sich noch in der laufenden FIP-Therapie, sucht mittelfristig aber ein Zuhause in reiner Wohnungshaltung - gern mit gesichertem Balkon. Wir können aktuell noch keine eigenen Aussagen zu seinem Verhalten gegenüber Artgenossen tätigen, da wir momentan kein passendes Partnertier für ihn haben. Sie haben eine Frage zu diesem Tier? Rufen Sie uns gerne an: Täglich außer feiertags: 10-12 Uhr und 13-17 Uhr Oder schreiben Sie uns: Anfrage senden { const submitter = document.querySelector('.g-recaptcha'); const form = submitter.form; const submitFunction = function(e) { e.preventDefault(); grecaptcha.ready(function() { grecaptcha.execute('6LcQDv0fAAAAAJkR3f9WlCLmKRxssPGJQrnXYeSx', {action: '/tiervermittlung/katzen5/picofiv851html'}).then(function(token) { form.querySelector('[name="recaptcha-token"]').value = token; form.removeEventListener('submit', submitFunction); form.requestSubmit(submitter); }); }); } form.addEventListener('submit', submitFunction); } Patenschaftsantrag für Pico FIV+ - Tierhafen Bad Karlshafen Mancher Schützling muss bei der Suche nach einem geeigneten Zuhause etwas mehr Geduld aufbringen.

About Pico FIV+

What life with Pico FIV+ looks like

Pico FIV+ is a large adult cat waiting at Name in Bad Karlshafen.

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 Pico FIV+, answered.

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