Adopt Samuel

British Shorthair · Male · Adult · 4 years

Hello, I am Samuel. Together with my two brothers, I was dropped off at the animal shelter as my owner no longer had the time for us. Now I am searching for a new home. At first, I am very shy and reserved, but with lots of patience and time, I will surely warm up quickly. In my new home, there should be no small children, as that would become too much for me and I need my peace. It would be nice if there was already a calm, sovereign second cat in my new home that I could orient myself around. After my settling-in period, I would like to enjoy some free time so I can explore the outdoors. If you are interested, please feel free to contact my foster parents. This animal was surrendered to the shelter. This cat needs outdoor access.

Hallo, ich bin Samuel. Zusammen mit meinen beiden Brüdern bin ich im Tierheim abgegeben worden, da unsere Besitzerin keine Zeit mehr für uns hatte. Nun suche ich ein neues Zuhause. Anfangs bin ich sehr schüchtern und zurückhaltend, aber mit viel Geduld und Zeit taue ich bestimmt schnell auf. In meinem neuen Zuhause sollten keine kleinen Kinder sein, da mir das zu viel werden würde und ich meine Ruhe brauche. Es wäre schön, wenn in meinem neuen Zuhause schon eine ruhige, souveräne Zweitkatze wohnen würde, an der ich mich orientieren kann. Nach meiner Eingewöhnungszeit würde ich gerne Freigang genießen, damit ich die Natur erkunden kann. Wenn ich euer Interesse geweckt habe, dann meldet euch doch gerne bei meinen Pflegern. Euer Samuel

About Samuel

What life with Samuel looks like

Samuel is a adult british shorthair cat waiting at Tierheim u. Tierschutzverein Kreis Ahrweiler e.V. / Tierheim Remagen. in Remagen.

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 Samuel, answered.

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