How do I contact the shelter about Rubino?

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

Can I adopt Rubino if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — ProTier e.V. 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 Rubino 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 Rubino 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 ProTier e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Rubino and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.

Rubino

Male · Young · 1 year

The little silbertiger Rubino was in very poor condition when found. Thankfully, with good care from our local colleague, he is doing much better now. He is a bit shy around strangers but very friendly. He likes other cats, knows dogs, and gets along well with them. Age-appropriately, he is lively and playful. Rubino is now ready to travel to Germany to find his own home with loving people. Rubino has arrived in his German foster home. Rubino moved to another foster home not long ago and now lives here with the same-aged tomcat Manu. They understood each other perfectly from the start, as if they had been looking for each other. They play together all day, sometimes a bit wilder – as is common for young kittens. The handsome Rubino is very affectionate and people-friendly, he seeks the closeness of the foster mom to be stroked and cuddled. He definitely needs a playmate of the right age at home, and Rubino would be the ideal match, bringing along his friend Manu. They make a great team, keeping each other entertained. If you would like to take the handsome Rubino into your family, we look forward to your message. He is not suitable for single ownership. For our cats, we generally prefer those that are suitable for apartment living with a cat-safe netted balcony or a secure terrace.

Der kleine Silbertiger Rubino war in ganz schlechtem Zustand, als er gefunden wurde. Inzwischen geht es ihm zum Glück dank der guten Pflege durch unsere Kollegin vor Ort sehr gut. Fremden gegenüber ist er etwas schüchtern, aber freundlich. Er mag andere Katzen, kennt Hunde und kommt gut mit ihnen aus. Alterstypisch ist er lebhaft und verspielt. Rubino ist jetzt bereit, nach Deutschland zu reisen, um hier sein eigenes Zuhause bei lieben Menschen zu finden. Rubino ist in seiner deutschen Pflegestelle angekommen. Rubino ist vor einiger Zeit in eine andere Pflegestelle umgezogen und lebt hier nun unter anderem mit dem gleichaltrigen Kater Manu zusammen. Beide verstanden sich auf Anhieb ganz prima, so, als hätten sie sich gesucht und gefunden. Sie spielen den ganzen Tag zusammen, manchmal auch etwas wilder - wie es bei jungen Katern so üblich ist.Der hübsche Rubino ist sehr lieb und menschenfreundlich, er sucht die Nähe der Pflegemama, um sich streicheln und durchknuddeln zu lassen.Er braucht im Zuhause auf jeden Fall einen Spielkameraden im passenden Alter, am liebsten wäre Rubino, er könnte seinen Freund Manu mitbringen. Sie sind ein tolles Team, das keine Langeweile aufkommen lässt. Wenn Sie den hübschen Rubino in Ihre Familie aufnehmen möchten, freuen wir uns über Ihre Nachricht. In Einzelhaltung wird er nicht vergeben. Für unsere Katzen bevorzugen wir generell die Wohnungshaltung mit vernetztem Balkon bzw. gesicherter Terrasse.

About Rubino

What life with Rubino looks like

Rubino is a young adult cat waiting at ProTier e.V. 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.
