Ronny

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 10 years

? Ronny – a little treasure with an extra special touch. Yes, Ronny has diabetes. And yes—he needs an insulin injection every single morning. But do you know what else Ronny really needs? Someone who sees the wonderful cat behind the diagnosis. The 2016-born cat came to us because his previous owner could no longer care for him due to her dementia. At first, Ronny is a bit cautious. But as soon as you start petting him, he immediately begins purring—and shows just how lovable this little treasure is. With the right food and his daily insulin injection, Ronny is doing great. A few kilos less would do him some good, too. We’re looking for a calm home in an apartment setting where he can be the only cat. ? born in 2016 ? neutered ? apartment living as an only cat ? diabetes (insulin once daily) ? cuddly and affectionate Sometimes it’s precisely the special animals that have the biggest hearts. ❤️

Ronny – Ein Goldstück mit kleinem Extra. Ja, Ronny hat Diabetes. Und ja – er braucht jeden Morgen eine Insulinspritze. Aber weißt du, was Ronny noch braucht? Einen Menschen, der hinter der Diagnose den wundervollen Kater sieht. Der 2016 geborene Kater kam zu uns, weil sich seine vorherige Besitzerin aufgrund ihrer Demenzerkrankung nicht mehr um ihn kümmern konnte. Anfangs ist Ronny kurz vorsichtig. Doch sobald man ihn streichelt, beginnt er sofort zu schnurren – und zeigt, was für ein liebenswertes Goldstück er ist. Mit dem richtigen Futter und seiner täglichen Insulinspritze kommt Ronny bestens zurecht. Ein paar Kilos weniger würden ihm zusätzlich guttun. Gesucht wird ein ruhiges Zuhause in Wohnungshaltung, in dem er Einzelprinz sein darf. - geboren 2016 - kastriert - Wohnungshaltung als Einzelkater - Diabetes (Insulin 1× täglich) - verschmust und liebevoll Manchmal sind es gerade die besonderen Tiere, die das größte Herz haben. ❤️

About Ronny

What life with Ronny looks like

Ronny is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Bad Harzburg und Umgebung in Germany.

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 Ronny, answered.

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