How do I contact the shelter about Pumuckl?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Katzenhaus-Freunde handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Pumuckl on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Pumuckl if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Katzenhaus-Freunde 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 Pumuckl 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 Pumuckl 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 Katzenhaus-Freunde early rather than rehoming privately; they know Pumuckl 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.

Adopt Pumuckl

Mixed Breed Cat · Male · Kitten · 4 months

Pumuckl is the son of Lina, he is a small, cheeky tomcat who is always playing and very curious. Visit or adopt a cat story from the group Nicky's & Lina's Kittens. We were contacted by a lady who sadly had recently lost her neighbor's wife, and now there are several unneutered cats that desperately need a new home. Our neuter team made an immediate trip and was able to secure 5 kittens and 1 tomcat, taking them with us. They were all brought to a foster home as it was already very late and we had a first vet appointment the next morning. We had already noticed while catching some of the cats that one or more might be pregnant. And it was really high time, as Daisy gave birth to her 4 babies that same night. The other girls turned out to be pregnant just before giving birth at the vet's, so they were brought to another foster home. The tomcat was neutered and allowed to return to his owner because he was much older. All 5 kittens are looking for a home with a free run in the green. Nicky gave birth to 5 kittens on April 25, 2026. On April 29, 2026, 2 orphan kittens came to Nicky. Lina gave birth to 4 kittens on May 6, 2026. All kittens are looking for a home to live in pairs or a bonded pair. This cat needs outdoor access.

About Pumuckl

What life with Pumuckl looks like

Pumuckl is a small puppy/kitten mixed breed cat cat waiting at Katzenhaus-Freunde in Zürich region.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇨🇭Adopting from Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.
