Scooter &#8211

Mixed Breed · Male

Langhaar-Mix * ca. 2012 – black-white – male – neutered, suitable for apartment living with a secured balcony, compatibility with others with fellow animals still unknown. Other: Diabetic since May 2026, Scooter came from very poor husbandry and was seized by the veterinary office as he was in a catastrophic condition. Scooter's fur was so matted across his entire body that it had become a real armor, making it barely possible to walk. Additionally, his claws on eight toes had grown so long that they had grown into his paw pads, causing him immense pain. Even after trimming the claws, his paws are still sore. During a blood test, it was unfortunately discovered that Scooter has a problem with the pancreas and suffers from diabetes. We are currently waiting for the complete result of the urine test, as diabetes can also cause a bladder infection, and he still needs to be treated with antibiotics. After that, the treatment of his diabetes with appropriate insulin must begin. In the animal shelter, a correct diabetes treatment and a good adjustment with the initial blood sugar measurements every 2-2 to 4 hours are barely possible, so we are soon looking for an appropriate care place or end place with cat-experienced people who ideally already have experience with the treatment of diabetic cats for Scooter. Further information will follow. If interested, please send us an email with more information at &;&;&;&;en&;&;&;&;im-go&;&;&;&;ngen.&;&;.

Langhaar-Mix * ca. 2012 – schwarz-weiß – männlich – kastriert Wohnungshaltung mit gesichertem Balkon/Garten Verträglich mit Artgenossen Sonstiges: Diabetiker, chronische Pankreatitis im Tierheim seit: 05/2026 Scooter kommt aus sehr schlechter Haltung und er wurde vom Veterinäramt beschlagnahmt, da er sich in einem katastrophalen Zustand befand. Scooter's Fell war am kompletten Körper so stark verfilzt, dass das Fell bereits zu einem richtigen Panzer wurde und laufen kaum noch möglich war. Zudem waren seine Krallen an 8 Zehen bereits so lang, dass sie in die Ballen eingewachsen waren. Dies muss dem armen Kerl höllische Schmerzen bereitet haben und auch nach dem Kürzen der Krallen waren seine Pfoten noch einige Zeit massiv entzündet. Bei einer Blutuntersuchung wurde leider festgestellt, dass Scooter Probleme mit der Bauchspeicheldrüse hat und an Diabetes leidet und auch dringend nun noch eine Zahnsanierung fällig ist. Inzwischen hat Scooty seinen Endpflegeplatz gefunden, auf dem er sich sehr wohl fühlt. Ihm geht es täglich besser, sein Diabetes wird behandelt und er ist auf gutem Weg. Da vor allem die Diabetes-Behandlung mit Insulin, Blutzucker- und Keton-Teststreifen und allem was dazu gehört leider sehr kostenintensiv ist, wären wir sehr dankbar über Patenschaften für Scooter, die uns bei den anfallenden Kosten unterstützen.

About Scooter &#8211

What life with Scooter &#8211 looks like

Scooter &#8211 is a adult mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Göppingen in Göppingen.

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 Scooter &#8211, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Scooter &#8211?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Göppingen handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Scooter &#8211 on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Scooter &#8211 if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Göppingen 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 Scooter &#8211 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 Scooter &#8211 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 Göppingen early rather than rehoming privately; they know Scooter &#8211 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.
