How do I contact the shelter about Pilgrim?

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

Can I adopt Pilgrim if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Ein Herz für Streuner e.V. 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 Pilgrim 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 Pilgrim 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 Ein Herz für Streuner e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Pilgrim 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.

adoption requirements adoption process Adopt this animal now! adoption requirements adoption process Pilgrim can stay forever in his Romanian foster home! His story: Rescued from certain death, the approximately 4.5-year-old Pilgrim is now searching for a new start in life, with a family that loves him. The affectionate white tomcat with cute gray spots should not be among us anymore if it were up to the heartless people who wanted to put him to sleep. The reason? Unimaginable, but true, a broken hind leg. Fortunately, one of our dear animal welfare advocates was informed and picked him up immediately, taking him to veterinary care. He spent his previous life on the streets, so now he longs for a warm cuddle basket and a little spot in the heart of loving people. His leg is fully healed now, and he exudes so much warmth, one could almost say he is one of the most affectionate toms out there. He waits in his foster home, hoping to be seen and adopted. Pilgrim is a very people-oriented little kitten who always wants his people nearby and enjoys their full attention. He is cuddly, loving, and gentle, like no other, a true little dream tomcat that one could only wish for. Due to his background and the time spent on the streets, a release is not for him at all. What more does one want than loving people around and a spot by the window with a view, or ideally, a cat-safe balcony to catch some fresh air and listen to and wait for the bird song? He gets along well with his fluffy fellow animals, but whether he would also understand a dog, we cannot say yet. The little fur-nose has been vaccinated, microchipped, neutered, dewormed, and treated for fleas for his new home. Additionally, he tested negative for FiV and FelV. He also has an EU pet passport and will travel to his new home after a positive assessment. Would you like to give the cuddly and gentle little tomcat his first forever home? Then we look forward to your completed self-assessment form! Heartfelt thanks to Silvie S.! You have given the little Pilgrim his name and thus his identity. As of: 05.07. This cat needs outdoor access.

Vermittlungsvoraussetzungen Vermittlungsablauf Jetzt dieses Tier anfragen! Vermittlungsvoraussetzungen Vermittlungsablauf Pilgrim darf für immer in seiner rumänischen Pflegestelle bleiben! Seine Geschichte: Gerettet vor dem sicheren Tod ist der circa 4,5 Jahre alte Pilgrim nun auf der Suche nach einem Neustart ins Leben, bei einer Familie, die ihn liebhat. Der liebevolle weiße Kater mit den niedlichen grauen Flecken sollte eigentlich gar nicht mehr unter uns weilen, wenn es nach den herzlosen Menschen ginge, die ihn zum Einschläfern abgeben wollten. Der Grund dafür? Unvorstellbar, aber wahr, ein gebrochenes Hinterbein. Zum Glück wurde eine unserer lieben Tierschützerinnen informiert und hat ihn sofort abgeholt und in tierärztliche Versorgung gegeben. Sein bisheriges Leben hat er auf der Straße verbracht, umso sehnlicher wünscht er sich jetzt ein warmes Kuschelkörbchen und ein kleines Plätzchen im Herz von lieben Menschen. Sein Beinchen ist wieder vollständig verheilt und er versprüht so viel Wärme, man könnte fast sagen er ist einer der liebevollsten Kater überhaupt. Er wartet nun in seiner Pflegestelle darauf gesehen und adoptiert zu werden. Pilgrim ist ein sehr menschenbezogener kleiner Katzenbub, der am liebsten seine Menschen immer in seiner Nähe hat und deren volle Aufmerksamkeit genießt. Er ist verschmust, liebevoll und sanftmütig, wie kaum ein anderer, ein echter kleiner Traumkater wie man ihn sich nur wünschen kann. Aufgrund seiner Vorgeschichte und der Vergangenheit auf der Straße ist der Freigang so gar nichts für ihn. Was will man auch mehr als liebe Menschen um sich herum und ein Plätzchen am Fenster mit Ausblick, oder im Idealfall noch einen katzensicheren Balkon zum Frischluft schnappen und dem Vogelgezwitscher zu lauschen und zu lauern. Mit seinen flauschigen Artgenossen versteht sich der kleine Kater gut, ob er sich auch mit einem Hund verstehen würde, können wir bisher nicht sagen. Die kleine Fellnase wird geimpft, gechipt, kastriert, entwurmt und entfloht in sein neues Zuhause reisen. Außerdem wurde er negativ auf FiV und FelV getestet. Er besitzt zudem einen EU-Heimtierausweis und wird nach positiver Vorkontrolle gegen eine Schutzgebühr von 250 Euro vermittelt. Möchtest Du dem verschmusten und sanftmütigen kleinen Kater sein erstes eigenes für-immer-Zuhause schenken? Dann freuen wir uns auf Deinen ausgefüllten Selbstauskunftsbogen! Lieben Dank an Silvie S.! Du hast dem kleinen Pilgrim seinen Namen und damit seine Identität geschenkt. Stand: 05.07.2024
