Samtpfoten

Mixed Breed · Male

Silas ist ein vier Jahre alter, von der Statur her eher kleiner Kater. Doch das ist dem roten Tiger selbst überhaupt nicht bewusst. Gemäß seinem Ego und wenn er in den Spiegel schaut, so ist er eine große und starke Fellnase. Das lässt er die Katzen in seiner Umgebung gerne einmal spüren. Er ist daher idealerweise ein Einzelprinz, gegebenenfalls kann er sich das Zusammenleben mit einer sanftmütigen Katzendame in einem ausreichend großen Domizil vorstellen. Hier muss genug Platz sein, damit man sich auch mal aus dem Weg gehen kann. Menschen dagegen mag Silas ausgesprochen gerne – ehrlich gesagt, er mag sie am liebsten, wenn sie Futter für ihn bringen. Am zweitliebsten, wenn sie ausführlich mit ihm schmusen. Daher suchen wir für unseren kleinen Kater mit dem großen Selbstbewusstsein ein schönes katzengerecht eingerichtetes Zuhause für immer – unbedingt mit Integration ins Familienleben aber auch mit Freigang in eine naturnahe und sichere Umgebung.

About Samtpfoten

What life with Samtpfoten looks like

Samtpfoten is a large adult mixed breed cat waiting at TSV Südthüringen e.V. in Hildburghausen.

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 Samtpfoten, answered.

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