Pumbi

Male · Young · 2 years

I am Pumbi... I was found and I'm looking forward to a loving home. This is me: I really like people, I'm affectionate and cuddly. Despite this, you should be able to read my body language well. If something gets too much for me or if I feel misunderstood, it can happen that I give with the paw. That's why I'm looking for cat-experienced people who can read and respect my signals. When I came to the shelter, I had severe struvite stones. Therefore, I still get special urinary wet food for about half a year, which I fortunately like very much. My animal caregivers will be happy to advise you. I wish... a quiet home in apartment keeping with secured balcony and a suitable cat companion - preferably a tomcat who already knows living together with other furry friends. Small children should not live in the household. If you would like to get to know me, I look forward to your inquiry via the application form below.

Ich bin Pumbi … wurde gefunden und freue mich auf ein liebevolles Zuhause. Das bin ich: Menschen mag ich sehr, bin anhänglich und verschmust. Trotzdem solltest du meine Körpersprache gut lesen können. Wenn mir etwas zu viel wird oder ich mich missverstanden fühle, kann es passieren, dass ich mit der Pfote austeile. Deshalb wünsche ich mir katzenerfahrene Menschen, die meine Signale lesen können und respektieren. Als ich ins Tierheim kam, hatte ich hochgradige Struvitsteine. Deshalb bekomme ich noch etwa ein halbes Jahr spezielles Urinary-Nassfutter, das ich zum Glück sehr gern fresse. Meine Tierpfleger:innen beraten dich natürlich gern. Ich wünsche mir … ein ruhiges Zuhause in Wohnungshaltung mit gesichertem Balkon und einem passenden Katzenkumpel – am liebsten einem Kater, der das Zusammenleben mit anderen Samtpfoten schon kennt. Kleine Kinder sollten nicht im Haushalt leben. Wenn du mich kennenlernen möchtest, freue ich mich auf deine Anfrage über das untenstehende Anfrageformular.

About Pumbi

What life with Pumbi looks like

Pumbi is a young adult cat waiting at Tierheim Berlin in Berlin.

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 Pumbi, answered.

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