Pino

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 11 years

Pino Das ist PINO! Er sucht ein neues Zuhause. Leider haben sich die Lebensumstände dort geändert und eines der Kinder reagiert allergisch. Nur sehr schweren Herzens muss die hübsche Lakritznase abgegeben werden und alle hoffen, dass er schnell eine neue Familie findet. Pino ist ein absoluter Traumkater. Er ist ein ausgesprochener Schmuser bei Erwachsenen und sehr liebevoll im Umgang mit Kindern. Er ist sportlich und aktiv und möchte im neuen Zuhause wieder Freigang in einer ruhigen Wohngegend haben. Pino ist kastriert, gechipt, entwurmt und geimpft. Pino möchte seine neuen Menschen nicht mit anderen Katzen teilen. Hunde kennt er nicht. Wer schenkt Pino für seine zweite Lebenshälfte ein liebevolles Zuhause?

About Pino

What life with Pino looks like

Pino is a senior mixed breed cat waiting at KIS Ruhr – Katzen in Schwierigkeiten in Bochum.

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. 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 Pino, answered.

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