Scratchy & Billie

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Kitten · 4 months

Scratchy und Billie sind gemeinsam auf der Suche nach ihren Menschen. unser Sorgenkind Scratchy wurde als Kitten in einer Mülltonne gefunden und, zum Glück, zu uns gebracht. Schon schnell zeigte er, dass er nicht viel in seinem kurzen Leben kennen gelernt hatte. Wenn ihm etwas zu viel war oder etwas nicht nach seiner Nase ging, kam schnell die Pfote. Mit mehr Platz und Auslastung hat er mittlerweile gute Fortschritte gemacht. Doch leider steht er sich häufig noch selbst im Weg. Viele Dinge, die er für ein gutes Zusammenleben kennen lernen muss, überfordern ihn schnell. Dabei spannt er sich an und kann auch mit Übersprungshandlungen reagieren. Hier werden Menschen mit viel Geduld und Katzenerfahrung gesucht. Unser Billie reagiert bei den meisten Dingen recht gelassen und neugierig. Dadurch vermittelt er Scratchy viel Sicherheit. Anfangs benötigt Billie etwas Zeit um mit einem warm zu werden, schnell wird er dann zu einem lustigen und quatschenden Begleiter. Scratchy und Billie sind beide sehr Menschenbezogen und auch die Kuschel Einheiten dürfen nicht zu kurz kommen. Mit Beschäftigungen, wie dem Clickern, sind beide zu begeistern. Das ungleiche Paar ist hier im Tierheim fest zusammengewachsen und sucht ein Zuhause mit Freigang in ruhiger Straßenlage. Aufgrund der Übersprungshandlungen sollte im Zuhause nicht allzu viel Trubel herrschen.

About Scratchy & Billie

What life with Scratchy & Billie looks like

Scratchy & Billie is a kitten mixed breed cat waiting at Tierheim Bielefeld in Bielefeld.

Kittens are tiny chaos engines for about six months and then mellow rapidly. They need two scheduled feedings, a litter box per cat plus one extra, and somewhere high to climb. Spay/neuter happens around six months — most shelters arrange this before adoption.

🇩🇪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 Scratchy & Billie, answered.

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