Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 7 years

>Rick sucht sein Für-immer-Zuhause Rick ist ein wunderschöner BKH-Kater aus dem Jahr 2019 und kam von einer Futterstelle zu uns. Er ist ein ganz besonderer Kerl mit einem eigenen Kopf und weiß ganz genau, was er möchte – und was eben nicht. Rick ist ein gemütlicher Kater, der die Dinge gerne in seinem eigenen Tempo angeht. Er spielt gerne und genießt seine Zeit, aber natürlich entscheidet er selbst, wann ihm danach ist. Bei Rick gilt: Er bestimmt, wann, wo und wie viel. Sein selbstbewusstes Wesen macht ihn zu einem echten Charakterkater. Für Rick wünschen wir uns ein Zuhause, in dem er als Einzelprinz leben darf und seine Menschen akzeptieren, dass er seinen eigenen Kopf hat. Wer einen unkomplizierten Kuschelkater sucht, der immer verfügbar sein möchte, ist bei Rick vermutlich an der falschen Adresse. Wer dagegen einen charakterstarken, wunderschönen Kater zu schätzen weiß und ihm die Freiheit gibt, selbst zu entscheiden, bekommt einen ganz besonderen Gefährten. Rick auf einen Blick: - Jahrgang 2019 - wunderschöner BKH-Kater - kam von einer Futterstelle zu uns - selbstbewusst & charakterstark - hat seinen eigenen Kopf - gemütlich & verspielt - möchte gerne Einzelprinz sein - entscheidet gerne selbst Wer schenkt unserem Rick sein Für-immer-Zuhause und gibt ihm die Freiheit, ganz er selbst zu sein?

About Rick

What life with Rick looks like

Rick is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at Katzenhilfe Oberhausen in Oberhausen.

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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Rick, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Rick?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Katzenhilfe Oberhausen handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Rick on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Rick if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Katzenhilfe Oberhausen 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Rick 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 Rick 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 Katzenhilfe Oberhausen early rather than rehoming privately; they know Rick 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.
