Rossi

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 16 years

The sweet and affectionate Rossi came into our care as a stray. Since no one seems to be missing the little guy, we are now looking for a caring home for him. Rossi is friendly, affectionate - and loves attention. A home where he is given plenty of attention and playtime is a must for the handsome fellow, as well as unrestricted outdoor access. Since Rossi is already a senior, he also wants to have some quiet time sometimes. He doesn't need other cats or children to be happy.

DE·Show original

Der liebe Rossi kam als Fundtier in unsere Obhut. Da niemand den großen Kerl zu vermissen scheint, suchen wir nun ein fürsorgliches Zuhause für ihn. Rossi ist freundlich, verschmust – und liebt Aufmerksamkeit. Ein Zuhause, in dem er ausreichend beschäftigt und betüddelt wird, ist ein Muss für den hübschen Kerl, ebenso wie uneingeschränkter Freigang. Da es sich bei Rossi schon um einen Senior handelt, möchte er aber auch manchmal seine Ruhe haben. Andere Katzen oder Kinder braucht er nicht, um glücklich zu sein. Möchten Sie Rossi kennenlernen und in den Genuss seines Stimmchens kommen? Dann schicken Sie gerne Ihre ausgefüllte Selbstauskunft an (Für die Adresse JavaScript anschalten). 16.09.2026 (lh)

About Rossi

What life with Rossi looks like

Rossi is a large senior mixed breed cat waiting at Hamburger Tierschutzverein in Hamburg.

Senior cats are the gentlest house guests: predictable, mostly silent, and grateful for a sunny windowsill. Older cats often have minor dental or kidney issues — keep an eye on water intake and weight. Many sleep eighteen hours a day and want no part of any drama.

🇩🇪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 Rossi, answered.

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