Rudi

Male · Young · 2 years

Rudi is a real dream cat. Young, active, shining green eyes and incredibly affectionate. He would love to crawl into someone's lap. He has lived with children and we don't see a problem with that. He just doesn't particularly like other cats. He wants his humans all to himself! Rudi is looking for a loving home with plenty of cuddles.

DE·Show original

Rudi ist ein richtiger Traumkater. Jung, aktiv, strahlend grüne Augen und unglaublich verschmust. Am liebsten würde er in einen hineinkriechen. Er hat mit Kindern zusammengelebt und da sehen wir auch kein Problem bei ihm. Nur andere Katzen mag er nicht besonders. Er will seine Menschen ganz für sich allein! Rudi sucht ein liebevolles Zuhause, mit genügend Schmusepersonal.

About Rudi

What life with Rudi looks like

Rudi is a young adult cat waiting at Tierschutzverein Reutlingen in Reutlingen.

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 Rudi, answered.

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