Puschkin

Male · Adult · 5 years

Update 5/17/2023: Puschkin can be gently stroked by familiar people. ———————————————————- Hello, I am Puschkin, I came to the animal shelter with five other cats because the farm where I lived had to be cleared of all the cats due to a move. Due to my past, I am still very shy and fearful around people and do not like to be handled. Therefore, I would like a very quiet home without children and with many opportunities for me to retreat, where I can live as an outdoor cat. Of course, an ideal place would be a yard where I can once again engage in mental stimulation as a mouser. If you are interested, feel free to get in touch!

Update 17.05.2023: Puschkin lässt sich von vertrauten Personen vorsichtig streicheln. ———————————————————- Hallo, ich bin der Puschkin, zusammen mit 5 weiteren Katzen kam ich ins Tierheim, da der Bauernhof, auf dem ich lebte, wegen eines Umzugs von allen ansässigen Katzen befreit werden musste. Aufgrund meiner Vergangenheit bin ich Menschen gegenüber noch sehr scheu und ängstlich und anfassen lasse ich mich nicht. Deswegen wünsche ich mir ein sehr ruhiges Zuhause ohne Kinder und mit vielen Rückzugsmöglichkeiten, in dem ich als Freigänger leben kann. Ideal wäre natürlich ein Hof, auf dem ich wieder einer Beschäftigung als Mäusefänger nachgehen kann. Falls ich Euer Interesse geweckt habe, meldet Euch doch gerne! Euer Puschkin

About Puschkin

What life with Puschkin looks like

Puschkin is a adult cat waiting at Tierheim u. Tierschutzverein Kreis Ahrweiler e.V. / Tierheim Remagen. in Remagen.

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 Puschkin, answered.

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