adoption requirements adoption process Now request this animal! adoption requirements adoption process Now request this dog! Schnuffel has found a home! His story: Schnuffel is about 2 years old, approximately 30 cm tall, and a true "Struppi" in the best sense: he has beige, slightly straw-like fur and a lovable, slightly tousled look that perfectly matches his character. He was found together with his friend Zafira, both were initially cared for outdoors by a friend of an animal rescuer until they could finally be brought to safety. In his Romanian foster home, Schnuffel now lives together with a tomcat, whom he has very much taken to heart. The two get along wonderfully together – a true dream team on four legs. Schnuffel is a true treasure: friendly, open, and absolutely loving to all – whether two-legged or four-legged. He looks forward to every encounter, enjoys the closeness to humans, and seems simply grateful to finally be safe and able to rest. With his manageable size and his uncomplicated, cheerful nature, Schnuffel is ideal as a family dog or a companion for people looking for a small, social, and adaptable dog. He will learn the basics of dog 1×1 life in the house with loving guidance – he brings the best prerequisite: the desire to please and a big heart. For Schnuffel, we wish for a loving home where he can arrive as a full-fledged family member. Also with cats or a friendly only dog – what's most important to him are closeness, affection, and people who will never leave him. Stand: 14.02. This animal is vaccinated. This animal is microchipped.

Vermittlungsvoraussetzungen Vermittlungsablauf Jetzt dieses Tier anfragen! Vermittlungsvoraussetzungen Vermittlungsablauf Jetzt diesen Hund anfragen! Schnuffel hat sein Zuhause gefunden! Seine Geschichte: Schnuffel ist etwa 2 Jahre alt, ca. 30 cm groß und ein richtiger „Struppi“ im besten Sinne: Er hat beiges, etwas strohiges Fell und einen liebenswerten, leicht verwuschelten Look, der perfekt zu seinem Charakter passt. Gefunden wurde er zusammen mit seiner Freundin Zafira, beide wurden von einer befreundeten Tierschützerin zunächst draußen versorgt, bis sie endlich in Sicherheit gebracht werden konnten. In seiner rumänischen Pflegestelle lebt Schnuffel nun gemeinsam mit einem Kater, den er sehr ins Herz geschlossen hat. Die beiden kommen wunderbar miteinander zurecht – ein echtes Dreamteam auf vier Pfoten. Schnuffel ist ein wahrer Goldschatz: freundlich, aufgeschlossen und absolut lieb zu allen – egal ob Zwei- oder Vierbeiner. Er freut sich über jede Begegnung, genießt die Nähe zu Menschen und scheint einfach nur dankbar zu sein, endlich in Sicherheit zu sein und zur Ruhe kommen zu dürfen. Mit seiner handlichen Größe und seinem unkomplizierten, fröhlichen Wesen eignet sich Schnuffel ideal als Familienhund oder Begleiter für Menschen, die einen kleinen, sozialen und anpassungsfähigen Hund suchen. Das Leben im Haus und die Grundlagen des Hunde‑1×1 wird er mit liebevoller Anleitung sicher schnell lernen – er bringt dafür die beste Voraussetzung mit: den Wunsch, zu gefallen, und ein großes Herz. Für Schnuffel wünschen wir uns ein liebevolles Zuhause, in dem er als vollwertiges Familienmitglied ankommen darf. Gerne auch mit Katzen oder einem freundlichen Ersthund – wichtig sind ihm vor allem Nähe, Zuwendung und Menschen, die ihn nie wieder im Stich lassen. Nach einer positiven Vorkontrolle und gegen eine Schutzgebühr von 500 Euro kann Schnuffel kastriert, gechipt, geimpft, entwurmt, entfloht und mit einem EU-Heimtierausweis in sein neues Leben reisen. Lieben Dank an Emma W.. Dank dir hat Schnuffel eine Identität bekommen und kann nun endlich auf die Suchen nach seinem Zuhause gehen. Stand: 14.02.2026

About Schnuffel

What life with Schnuffel looks like

Schnuffel is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Ein Herz für Streuner e.V. in München.

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 Schnuffel, answered.

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